Where are you? EDIT: Sorry, it does say NW but could you be more specific?

I bet you could find a schematic to build one, and it would be very easy. What's the model number?

Boss LS-2 is a good suggestion

I've done it, but I think blocking the soundhole would have helped. I had to angle myself away from my amp, turn it down, and put my noise gate on. At lower volumes it shouldn't be too bad. We've recently done a lot of guitars on an album i'm making by playing an electro acoustic into a distorted practice amp and we've had no feedback issues (standing very close to the amp)

NOT RELATED SPECIFIALLY TO JANEK I HATE the fact that some people think that when I express a negative opinion about someone else it's all about my own insecurities. It's not.

lol, not that I want to start a pick related argument, but it IS just a peice of plastic.

[quote name='BottomEndian' post='560950' date='Aug 5 2009, 10:17 AM']Is it ridiculous of me to have "blended loop GAS"? Actually, no. I had plectrum GAS a few weeks back...[/quote] Plectrum GAS sounds like a serious psychological issue. Perhaps you need some therapy?

I used to blend 2 loops of distortion and fuzz all the time. I then blended that with clean. Very punchy!!!

Cool, I quite fancy a kit pedal. RE the "both" option - you can never have enough dirt pedals on at once. It would have been better if it was a blend of the two though.

That is a nice rig!!! On your looper, when you select both, is it A->B or A+B and if it's the latter do you get volume issues? WTF is a Moodysounds Hjärt Müller?

Well I ended up doing a music tech degree at staffs. They have some great equipment and some allright studios, but you basically record 1 band in your 2nd year, and then you can do recording in your 3rd year if it's to do with your final year project. I went to learn about recording and basically just learned how to drug yourself into a whopping overdraft. I've since gained experience recording independently and am making an album with my own gear, but just learning what I now consider the basics of recording and mixing was a tough struggle after 3 whole f*cking years at uni.

Alex - from your post it looks like Orange actually PMd you?

It would never happen in my band. We're three mates who play songs together. It would be possible to train someone up to replace one or another of us, but we'd never do it. We've turned down great gigs because one of us has been away. It just wouldn't be right, and if they did a gig without me i'd be very offended.

Did they ask if it was cool with you to get a dep? If so, you should have been more assertive and said no. If not, then you should be seriously p*ssed off and tell them so.

I didn't realise it could batch process them. I will get Audition!!

You can normalise to RMS (not sure what it stands for but I think it's an average) rather than Peak in most programs.

I would say the next step is to get some decent mics, which means a decent pre-amp or two, and then probably a decent audio interface. This is because working with mics and acoustic recording is far more difficult than recording DIs. I was in the same position as you when I was 16. In retrospect, I should have gone to college and done a Btech in recording.

I just remember that single, it was very funky indeed. I lost it during a lightning storm along with the rest of my mp3 collection

That's very interesting, thanks!! I might have a go at this. IMO Reason is pretty poor for writing midi. You could use anything to create a MIDI file and put it into that program.

What the hell's a vocaloid and how do you use it with reason?

[quote name='butlerk02' post='551661' date='Jul 26 2009, 11:18 AM']Hi, I'm using a focusrite saffire with a macbook.[/quote] In which case you probably have much better drivers than ASIO4ALL. Have you looked for a way to do this? "Perhaps you could somehow get the keyboard to go directly to Reason rather than through GB to reason. The outputs will still be available in Rewire to listen back into GB." I know, for example, you can have MIDI data in the Reason sequencer and still run that in slave mode to cubase.

a switch is just two wires being connected and disconnected, so simulate the function of the switch without using the switch and you should be able to tell if the switch is broken. All you need is a couple of wires connected to the same points as the footswitch, then connect and disconnect them to see if you get the pop.

[quote name='vegas_hooker' post='550396' date='Jul 24 2009, 05:02 PM']Haha, Brilliant![/quote] That's exactly what your mother said! What a coincidence!! (joke, don't be offended!!)
