  1. Usually the left output can be used as a mono out, and only use L&R if you want stereo, from what i've seen anyway. Liam
  2. Muscle memory for me, so i'm not sure which category that would fall under. If i start thinking about the notes on stage, that's when i mess up. Liam
  3. Glad to hear that. I'm due a string change this week and i'm making the move to Elixirs myself. Good customer support is always a bonus. Liam
  4. [quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1368313654' post='2075688'] The place I buy it from sell it at £6 a meter. There are 5m in the sealed box and they give you 10% off if you buy a box - so I got 5m for for £27. That's ALOT. Unless you are a total pedalboard whore like me, using a sensible amount 5m should last a lifetime. [/quote] At first i thought that was really expensive, but it's not as bad as it seems. I paid £14 for 2m of the Velcro branded stuff (Which was sh*te, but it wasn't the heavy duty stuff) so £6pm isn't that bad. I could see 5m lasting me beyond a lifetime, seeing as all i have is a PT Nano. My best suggestion is just listen to Shep. He uses more of the stuff than Pedaltrain do. Liam
  5. Only Ashdown gear i've ever had issues with were a pair of MAG series 1x15's which were just all low end and hardly any top, and their tiny practice amp which couldn't take the output from my bass with any sort of usable sound. All the rest i've used has been great, though it was all ABM stuff. Liam
  6. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGsWyPjSVRo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGsWyPjSVRo[/url] A bit of Casey Abrams for me tonight. Can't believe a guy with that much talent (He's a bass player, of course he's talented) came out of American Idol. Liam
  7. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1367945418' post='2071404'] Don't forget that Mr Mars also penned 'Forget You' by Cee-Lo Green which also has a killer bass line! The man know how to write a hit, that's for sure. [/quote] Not strictly him, it was The Smeezingtons, which is Bruno, his backing vocalist Phil, and Ari Levine, who were responsible for i think 3 US number ones and 4 UK number ones, with 5 grammy nominations, in their first 2 or 3 years. I've been listening to his stuff since he did Billionairre with Travie McCoy, and loved his work ever since. Definately one of the most talented people in the pop industry at the moment. Liam
  8. There's only 2 things on it, so obviously the most useful are the tuner and drive. I could probably live without both if i had to though. Liam
  9. Not a tour poster with all the dates on, but i bought a poster when i saw Tyler Ward last year, got it signed by him and his band and also got a personal thankyou off him for being the life of the crowd. It's on my bedroom wall at the moment, but its my only poster that still looks brand new, and it's going to stay that way. Liam
  10. Right from the start for me, unless it's a cr*p venue and there's nobody in, in which case, i just have to try to stay awake. Liam
  11. The Nanos are TINY, but it makes complete sense if you barely need anything on your board like I do. Liam
  12. P!nk - Funhouse. Got a cover of it on youtube, and it was a challenge not to dance whilst recording it. That reminds me, i need to record some more covers. Liam
  13. My P bass came to me with an EMG pickup. If it didn't have the battery route on the back (Which reminds me, i haven't changed it in 18 months) i would've put a passive pickup back in, but i don't think the EMG sounds bad at all. I may try the Seymour Duncan Lightning Rods when i find the extra cash though. My Ibanez has had all of the original electronics ripped out, and replaced with a passive VVT circuit, but that's because i was bored and fancied something different. Liam
  14. I know how you feel on that one. When we're tracking we always either record scratch/guide tracks when doing the drums, or i just get the guitarist to play whilst i do my parts as well. I'm sure there's guys who can do fine with just the drums, but i'm not one of them. Liam
  15. Ordered though them a few times, nothing bad to say at all. Every time i've ordered it's been dispatched within 2 hours of me placing the order as well. Mostly just small stuff though, strings, mic stands, picks, etc... Liam
  16. One vote from me. I heard about this the other day and i'm trying to get a friend to sign up for the Manchester date. I could see Gabby being a brilliant person to be around backstage at a gig. Best of luck for the competition. Liam
  17. I got my Nano from Andertons, so they might be worth a try. Liam
  18. Major gas for one or something similar myself. I want a fretless hollowbody too. Liam
  19. The sales fee makes perfect sense to me. It's a service with a clear, quantifiable benefit (In the form of money in your pocket), which in many cases, is a pretty large benefit. £20 isn't too much to pay for something like that, IMO. I have noticed little bits of negativity and hostility here and there, but nothing that's really had an effect on my use or opinions of this forum. On the flip side, there's also threads (Particularly in OT) that put a smile on my face, because they really do show the community aspect of BC, which is something that's hard to achieve and maintain i'm sure. The mods, admins and everyone involved with the management and upkeep of this place is doing a brilliant job. Liam
  20. I always use the rehearsal rooms cabs, with my own head, partly due to not owning any cabs myself yet, and because they're decent. One room has a Peavey 1x15, and the other i've used has a nice SVT 8x10. Liam

  22. [quote name='Roger2611' timestamp='1365442602' post='2039715'] It is the Stageclix Jack system....I will look in to the possibility of an extension that will move it away from the actives [/quote] There's [url="http://www.stageclix.com/products/accessories"]this[/url] one from Stageclix (scroll down the page a little) though i expect you could easily get the same for quite a bit less in other places. Liam
  23. [quote name='Roger2611' timestamp='1365441136' post='2039695'] The Stageclix came highly recommended, I brought one, but, and it is a big but, it doesn't work with 3 of my 4 active basses, it produces a very unpleasent high pitched whine with all but the Stingray bass, the dealer who sold it to me is currently asking Stageclix for advice as it could be I just have a faulty one [/quote] Is it the bug or the pack system? There's been a few things with the bug ones getting a bit of interference from being so close to the active circuitry, so they sell and extension cable and strap holder for them to get them further away. Liam
  24. Does it have strings - Yes Does it sound good - Yes Does it feel good - Yes Those are my criteria, that being said, my main bass is a Fender.... Liam
  25. A female fronted pop/punk band, so Paramore, We Are The In Crowd, Tonight Alive, etc... Well, either one of those or Shinedown. Liam
