Anyone else done a hard reset?
Jean-Luc Pickguard replied to bassist_lewis's topic in General Discussion
I hardly touched a bass for the entirety of the 90s, having got into using a computer (first the Yamaha CX5M, then the Atari STE) and synthesisers / drum machines etc to make music. When I decided to get back into playing bass I ditched using a plecky and forced myself to get good at playing fingerstyle which I was unable to do well before. -

I stopped playing during the COVID lockdowns. I don't get much joy from playing bass on my tod, so I didn't. Honestly, it was 50/50 whether or not I would go back. Then I gave my head a wobble, treated myself to a royal purple G&L CLF L-1000 and got back on the horse.

I took about 2 years out a few years back, my kids were small and I just wanted to be with them and not be thinking about gigs etc. I always used to play to earn some money and that was a bit motivation to keep playing. Since starting up again I don’t worry too much about money (my job is decent and I’m not counting pennies these days), the big thing for me is getting out of the house and seeing people, having a laugh and just doing it because it helps my mental health.

I have had to abandon two transcriptions this week because, having got half way through, something derailed the transcription and I had to abandon (essentially, I tried things that I couldn't hear the bass part properly, even after a MOISES re-mix). So, in an effort to keep things moving, I have put together an easy one that most of us have a chance of reading, the complete Jeff Berlin bass performance on the tune 'Small Wonder' from the 1988 Kazumi Watanabe album, 'The Spice Of Life Too'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/small-wonder-kazumi-watanabe/

+100 I just wish someone else was making video clips of the FI4!

Reduced to £75 before eBay beckons. In very good condition, boxed and fully functional. Can be powered with a 9volt battery or a power supply. A PSU is also included in the sale as well as a Midi lead and a printed A4 manual. Please note photo shows 2 Midi leads in error, only one with the pedal - the longer one. Peter The Midi Moose is battery operable and provides a minimum of 200 hours usage. A cutting edge battery feature turns off the numerical display after 5 seconds in oder to conserve power. In the event that you forget which preset you were on, you can step on the individual patch LED that is still it, waking up the display to your previous display without making any changes. Specificiations MIDI I/O: Out Height: 1.5" Width: 17" Depth: 3.6"

About the pedals no. Although the only one that interests me is the FI for its superior tracking. Just ask Q The guy just comes across as a click farmer imho.

This long after launch i assume MXR are deliberately causing delays to maintain the hype on what is after all a very niche pedal. Just my 2c

I don't think you can ever go wrong with Yamaha unless you want something innovative. For a solid and reliable instrument, I would be much more likely to trust them than most other brands.

I took a year off and the got back to it at the start of this year with all new gear. It was like starting again, I could still play but I had a new motivation and different targets. I miss my old band but now have another and its fun again.

I don’t do gigs for money really (although it’s an added bonus). I do it because I enjoy it and if I didn’t I’d stop. Sometimes I find it hard to turn things down because the people I play with are friends. I had a similar thing as you did in August and took the whole month off. It didn’t impact my playing at all and I felt loads better. I’ve started listening to different music. I’ve found some incredible new stuff I’d never have ever considered listening to and (guess what?) it’s made me pick up the bass and try and play along.
