[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1344438736' post='1764517'] Because all the YouTube clips aren't recorded in the same room, with the same mics, the same post-processing at the same sample rate and frequency and then compressed using the same bit-rate and algorithm, before being uploaded to YouTube where it is compressed once again. Doesn't matter what you listen to a YouTube clip on. The source audio is inconsistent and has been subjected to multiple unsympathetic compression. [/quote] very true - but given tc are in the business of trying to flog their amps on their sound quality you would think a little bit more effort and resource would have been invested to produce a better result other audio companys can manage it ok but it does require a bit of sound/video recording expertise and post production of the audio and video and given a bit of time with somebody who knows how the sound is going to compress to the final online video and a graphics wizz to spend a couple of hours tarting it up in adobe premiere it would be advertising budget well spent imo this video looks more like theyve give a camcorder to Mr Heep and told him to stick it on a tripod and go make a demo of the amp (if they even gave him any brief at all) - being someone with a modicum of experience within the world of media/advertising i would go so far as to suggest that this sort of shoddy presentation would more than likely harm their sales figures to all but the most stalwart of tc fans

[quote name='lettsguitars' timestamp='1344435441' post='1764436'] What an amazing concept. [/quote] all that empty shelf space - tc obviously dont believe in spending their hard earned profits on decent advertising ! edit - only just noticed ... bet sandberg are pleased wit this one ..... NOT !

What a great way to showcase different basses.
steve-bbb replied to steve-soar's topic in General Discussion
very interesting when all compared so close together in conitnuity like this normally am a big warwick and ray tone fan but these ones didnt do it for me although the star was my personal fave of the two warwicks J by a mile for me wonder how much difference there would be through a different rig? -

One of this country's great overlooked talents ! most people tend to only remember Bill Nelson for Be Bop Deluxe and Red Noise but his solo catalogue since then is quite staggering [url="http://soundcloud.com/billnelson"]http://soundcloud.com/billnelson[/url] [url="http://www.billnelson.com/html/salon/index.php"]http://www.billnelso...salon/index.php [/url] free downloads at bottom of page

[quote name='Josh' timestamp='1344190247' post='1760972'] Some of you may have seen these on my recent sale thread, but here's out latest video: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kw5pCuFr2W8&feature=plcp[/media] And the others can be found here: [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/cautionersuk/videos?view=1"]http://www.youtube.c...k/videos?view=1[/url] Thanks, Josh. [/quote] nice melody - very pleasing to the ears gorgeous bass tone Josh - thats exactly the tone that made me look to go and buy a warwick...until i picked them up and tried them why do they sound so great but feel so ugly?? but thats a whole nother thread edit - 'staging area' even better - not often i get all the way to the end of the homemade stuff

still ripping vinyl -
id be quite pleased if the guitarist stood on my cables it might electromagnetically infuse some of that bass signal goodness into them and curb their widdling tendencies with a moderate improvement in general good musical taste edit - maybe i should invest in a really long cable and detour it under the keyboardists feet too - maybe if they could 'sense' the bass line they'd feel less compulsion to keep doubling it all the time

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1344100113' post='1759845'] So that's Jeff Berlin?? There was me wondering why Geddy had put on four stone and grown a silly moustache. [/quote] you obviously didnt hang around long enough until the end then to hear the presenter biggin' him up

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1344096865' post='1759794'] I love Jazz but this is shocking.... [/quote] innit [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1344097889' post='1759808'] Thus proving that just because something [i]can [/i]be done... [/quote] but then why only half do it? there are a couple of moments where the arrangement [i]almost [/i]begins to work aside from JB's sloppy/lazy playing the real killer is that the drum line is identical to the original version - if you're going to go out on a limb with a radical arrangement you need to address the whole score not just everything apart from the drums

[quote name='musophilr' timestamp='1344087147' post='1759595'] As per one comment on a youtube page ... they've been listening to T.Rex. That's not necessarily a bad thing ... [/quote] well it never hurt the dame

oh and this one... a few 'very very very minor indiscretions' that only people with 'magic ears' might spot, but a superbly played cover and a good one to watch if you want to try and figure it out yourself [url="http://youtu.be/fZmP4FngzHA"]http://youtu.be/fZmP4FngzHA[/url]

if you go through the last few pages of the 'lets see some vid of you playing' thread on here there is a YYZ cover (sorry cant remember who posted it)
