and on the subject of making room for other instruments in a mix, Waves are giving away Waves Curves Resolve for "free" - https://www.waves.com/plugins/curves-resolve . "Curves Resolve provides an intelligent way of solving conflicts between multiple tracks in your mix. It processes one track by listening to another, carving space only when and where there’s a clash. The result: no masking, no congestion, no mud. A cleaner mix that breathes, letting all your sounds fit together beautifully. And it’s almost impossible to overprocess – more transparent, with more control than any alternative."

Gazz started following New Bass Bridge, How many...

Need any reviews, or recommend a new bridge for Fender Jazz bass. I've looked at both the Babics Z and the Halon, any advice? Thanks Gaz

The SSL plugins are designed in conjunction with Sonible who offer their own 'assisted' plugin suites. I've not tried these SSL plugins, but I do own the Sonible suites. They are a useful second set of ears when I am mixing and do sound very good indeed. Sonible's latest Compressor and EQ plugins enable multiple tracks to be analysed at the same time so that each instrument's sound can be adjusted to fit in the mix, rather than 'just being a great sound' solo'd. Clever stuff! As a fan of SSL in general, I'd liek to see what Sonibke have brought to the SSL suites.

"Mint. (just ignore the dirt and scratches)" Bassdirect have had some clangers in the past. Mint. And then in description, chipped paint, buckle rash, dented headstock. -
I’d say 2 or 3 max.

Leonard Smalls started following It's "for charity"
-
I've done a few charity gigs for free - though being in only originals bands I often get paid very little or nowt as well depending on the amount of folks who come in. However, y'all would be appalled at the level of expenses that established stars get for charity events; the usual fee might be waived but private jet, champagne rider and Michelin level dinners are all there...

BassAdder60 started following Audition tonight
-
Ten songs for an audition is a bit much when they may be seeing several candidates. 6 songs is plenty for both parties to see if it’s a good fit Different if you already know many of the songs but asking for 10 songs only to be told no is a bit unfair. I’m sure that won’t happen and you will get the role 👍

Trans-Siberian highway, maybe?

Good luck. Hope they're a decent bunch.

Lozz196 started following Audition tonight and Road Worn?
-
There’s Road Worn, and there’s Shagged Out. I’d put this cab in the latter.
-
Fingers crossed for you Nige, hope it goes well
-
I use an unmodified pair of those with a Cat5 cable for longer cable runs to the desk. The DI from the bass and my Mic output goes through it and it tidies up the stage - also lighter and takes up less room in the gig bag.

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
Cat Burrito replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
The stage gear is normally my not working look, so I am happy to parade around the place looking like that most of the time. The mandocello is blocking my usual clothes so it is just the change in hat that is a little off brand. I very occasionally go for the long beanie, depending on mood. -
Despite the click bait title, the more observant amongst you may noticed that this bears a striking resemblance to an old school Dell laptop bag. And while I can neither confirm nor deny any such speculation, what I can confirm is that this is the perfect protective bag for a class D amp. It features rivetted in (leather?) handle, a rigid side frame, plenty of padding and loads of pockets inside and out for cables, a pager and your Filofax. It offers way more protection for your amp than the overpriced branded gig bags that manufacturers offer and at a fraction of the price. The internal dimensions are 33 x 28 x 6.5cm although there's a bit of flexibility to expand slightly due to the padding and a slight give in the (presumably plastic) side frame. I'm asking a whopping tenner for the case collected from the Wellingborough area and am happy to post at the buyers cost, I'd guess around a fiver.

You look quite different off stage without the stage gear and lighting there Cat. I might not have recognised you without your usual stage headgear. 😂 Would def love to see you guys live. Such an interesting project. Dave - Today

Got an audition for a new band tonight... About 70% certain on the ten songs I was given to learn. To be honest, I'm not nervous at all. At nearly 61, if it doesn't work out I'll not be peeved. Not a huge shift in style from my last band. More modern metal then old school death metal which the last lot did. Looking forward to be back playing more than anything 😁

I'm 100% with the others on this. If you don't make the effort for a 3 song audition then you don't deserve to be in that band. Hungover at 3pm and an hour late is unacceptable behaviour and i'd have serious issues with anyone that treated my band with a lack of respect. If he had forewarned you that he had a social event the night before but had learned the songs i might consider a second chance but he failed in every respect. I'm a bit surprised you've struggled to get a decent drummer for a metal band. Always thought there was an abundance of heavy hitters out there just looking for the right band. I'd keep on searching.

I'm happy to give my time to charities. I do about 6 hours per week volunteering for samaritans. I give 10% of any freelance money i earn to charities too. I think about where I'd like to donate to help where i think it's needed most. Happy to do charity gigs but it's only right that the organisers don't expect us to be out of pocket. I like to choose where i donate my money. Also there's always an inequality of income amongst band members. It's not fair on those who really need the expenses to have to be the only one that has to stand up and say "I can't afford to do this". If everyone gets expenses those that wish to can quietly donate them back to the charity concerned.
