    What’s the price point though, the TE Elf and Warwick Gnome series already have this corner of the market pretty much sewn up.

    Is it any good for metal?
  3. paul_5
    Plus another.

    BBOT and a 3.5mm drill?
  5. paul_5
    Dunno, but if it was good enough for Prince…

    ooh, yes please. PMed

    Welcome from another (just about) Lancastrian!

    I've used Boss CEB-3 and CEB-2 DOD stereo chorus (old blue thing) NUX Mod Core Multi effects pedal. Zoom patches on 3000B and MS-60B What I now use: EHX Small Clone. I just prefer the sound of the EHX. The Boss ones were too subtle, and the DOD I can't really remember too much about.

    Chorus Joy

    It’s one of the best feelings in the world when the sounds coming out of your speaker(s) match the sounds in your head. Glad you’ve got a result!

    Here's the compatibility table for the Sonicfoam tips - I got them from Amazon. SF1s seem to fit all of the KZ range.

    Yes. Most of my playing now involves depping for other players, so I like to keep abreast of what local bands are doing, just in case...

    Glamorous Glue - Mozza

    This. Definitely. Darkglass heads are voiced perfectly for newer metal styles (think John Stockman from Karnivool) but most of my metal playing was through Ampeg stuff 0 their cabs have a noticeable 'boom' at around 200Hz which was great for filling the space when two lead guitarists were going widdly widdley in harmony.

    Just got some sonic foam tips for my zs10s - much better now.

    DIY Effects

    paul_5 replied to JackLondon's topic in Effects

    Loving the semi-parametric designs. I'll never understand why they're not more common on amplifiers; I used to play SWR amps and they were SO flexible. Ampeg preamps come close with the mid frequency selector (which I use now), but mostly its just a toggle between two preset frequencies.
  17. paul_5
    I had the exact same model. Great sounding instruments!

    I'd echo Flea. For me they peaked with Blood Sugar Sex Magic and it's been a slow decline since them. I'll submit Chuck Rainey. AMAZING bassist but Steely Dan just superheats my uric acid. And not in a good way.

    Yep. Long covid has put paid to most of my extra curricular activities; can’t stand or walk for long, do what gigging I do is now sat down. My brain fog and fatigue means that I can’t drive or remember lots of different songs and set lists like I used to. It sucks but I know folks who’ve had it worse. Try to focus on the positives. learn a new instrument or 2, broaden your musical tastes or start to transcribe different stuff than you’re used to hearing. one thing I’ve learned through all of this is that everybody can find something that they enjoy. keep your chin up dude.

    I use a Butler tube overdrive in addition to a boss OC2 and aEHX Small Clone when zI need a bit of drive, but a Lovetone Meatball clone after the oc2 gives a lovely Stevie Wonder style analogue synth- works great with glissandos.

    I think (for me) Slayer’s Decade of Aggression just about eclipses the studio recordings too.
  22. paul_5
    Hooray for secondary dominant chords! 👌🏻
  23. paul_5
    Yes, I thought that as I was typing, but these are released as 'Live' albums, not the standard 'record everything and replace lots of it when we get home' Zappa approach.
  24. paul_5
    Should really be renamed "Overdubbed & Marginally Perilous" as only a small proportion of that admittedly brilliant album is actually live.
  25. paul_5
    LOTS of Zappa albums - personal favourites include "Broadway the Hardway", "Does Humour Belong In Music" & "Roxy & Elsewhere". Also, "Pulse" is pretty much the only Pink Floyd I can stand to listen to. I have to admit that. as big of a Rush fan as I am, I prefer the Live versions on "A Show Of Hands" to most of the albums that preceded those tours (Signals, Grace Under Pressure, Hold Your Fire).
