that zombie pedal is ace!!

Well, she sounds perfect to me. Even if it does take a year to [s]groom[/s] get her up to speed.

It happens all the time, check out the threads on couriers!

In site news there is a post explaining that they're in the process of changing the board software quite drastically, so I doubt they're going to tweak the existing software at the moment.

Yes!

I always tune to the harmonics on the 12th fret which seem to give a more stable reading, especially for the lowest strings.

I always wanted one. Do you have to put it in a blender? Does it lose any low end?

I have flats on one of my 6 strings. Using EQ and dirt I have no problem creating a horrible trebly distortion tone.

You shouldn't have to go custom though? Diago, Godlyke, Burkey etc should cover all bases

It's probably not that safe. If you get a decent one you won't get noise and it'll power all your pedals. I use a Godlyke Powerall, but that only goes to 3Amps (I think). There are others which can go further. I think someone was selling a burkey flatliner on here recently, it was a good deal!

I bet you'd get a gig there with your 2 peice act, I think you have to contact the student union. It's an ace venue if it fills up.

That looks ace shep! This is the only live shot I have of my board. It's not very good

Well, I have practised at industrial type places for the last 5 years. We try to come to agreements with everyone in earshot, stipulating what times we can play, and how they can get in touch if it's too loud. To be fair, if I ever [i]had[/i] to practise on a Sunday morning, i'd have to try and soundproof a bit.

cheers! I'll check that out.

I'm not really into mastering in a big way. I know that I don't know what i'm doing so I try not to mess up my mixes too much. I thought T-Racks would be an easy way to a "polished" master, but, yeh, it just destroyed my mixes. It sounds like I should give it another go trying to be much more subtle. At the moment, i'm using the Stillwell Audio Major Tom compressor. If you set it to forward feedback, and set the ratio to limit you can get a lot of "transparent" compression before it starts to mush up.

beedster - are you not happy with reverb plug-ins? There are some fantastic plug-ins available. mythste - I like the multi-band limiter, but the rest was just way too over the top for me. That and it takes up a huge amount of cpu power.

yeh, with my setup as described, there is some serious low end. I also have a LOT more headroom so can turn up way beyond bollock-tickling level. This is with a sh*tty Peavey combo, so your markbass would do much better i'm sure.

you need something to cut out the very low end after the DI but before your amp. An EQ pedal? On my amp, I have the low shelf boosted quite high, but I also have a graphic EQ which I use to cut everything below 50Hz (or 60 or 80, I can't remember what the value is on the lowest slider).

I opened a WH4 before, I thought it was a mightmare to get the board out! If you can't see any dry joints or broken contacts, well, that's as far as my knowledge goes. SFX repairs pedals, and there are a couple of other guys on here. Hopefully they'll see your post!

I wouldn't put any of those in the amp's effects loop. Also, two LS-2s seems excessive. Why not put all the pedals you want a clean blend with in the same LS-2 loop?

I think most onboard soundcards are crap, so if you want decent quality you need an external interface anyway. I assume that applies to Macs too.

oh, downer, I was going to get one
