oh and i would appreciate any comments/criticisms please

please take a listen to these, been working quite hard on them recently, find them at our [url="http://www.myspace.com/failuresartband"]Myspace[/url]

I have been depping with these guys and it has been great fun, but with two other bands and a degree round my ankles i unfortunately no longer have the time, and feel bad not being able to commit full time. They rehearse in a great spot on old street and have some nice gigs in the pipeworks so will be a great gig for somebody really. They are great guys too and with more time i would be straight onto this.... my loss. get in touch with Jamie via their myspace...

[quote name='OldGit' post='201614' date='May 18 2008, 05:23 PM']Hi I posted this on the end of another thread so, rather than hijack it here's a new thread of its own ... I'm looking for a way to record rehearsals (some with 20 + horns and a section) and mini-demos with a small no hassle recorder that produces something I can easily put onto my MP3 player, PC and CDs .. This is just for me to learn the tunes, mostly. No requirement for great quality beyond the ability to hear things clear enough on playback and avoiding overload distortion (used to get that on cassette recorders - yup it's been that long since I did anything like this ... Looks like those that have them like Zoom H2's ... any difficulties with them or other makes and models to look at? H4? Am I right in thinking you can load the recordings into sound editing software such as Cubase LE (I have that somewhere) and then add tracks etc? Thanks OldGit, recording numpty .....[/quote] these are great, ive been using mine to record rehearsals for analysis, buy it with some sufficient memory and you will have great fun. It generally picks up everything in the room well as long as you position it nicely, it has four mics, so you can do stereo or two stereo (surround) recordings of the room. Mine didn't come with cubase, but the tracks are very easy to get off anyway, i just do it with a card reader, but you can use it as a USB mass storage device which is pretty compatible. hope this helps

where did you manage to try one out kev? been on the lookout in a few shops but no luck yet

had a weird gig last night.... it was at phibbers on holloway road road in islington, london. Very small stage, and pretty much half a drum kit (no hi hat clutch!!!) even though they said just bring breakables, but it was funny nevertheless

[quote name='99ster' post='199746' date='May 15 2008, 04:54 PM']I really like mine - but only on certain songs that require a HUGE BASS sound. They will happily knock holes through walls. Great for a big throbbing dub sound.... and certainly not for 'twiddling' about on. As for current 'top players' that use them? Well the great Daryl Johnson uses one live when he plays with Daniel Lanois (who is also a big fan of them in the studio) & gets a fantastic tone - and then at the other end of the spectrum the guy from The Hives plays one too! I paid £1K for mine not that long ago - so I'd better review my insurance as this one looks like it's going to get well over the £2K mark! [attachment=8688:74_tele2_front.jpg][/quote] sexy...

I noticed a similar problem the other day when using my pedals... i have a 6 way 9v daisy chain plugged into 3 pedals, and when i touched a screw on my midi keyboard, i got a small shock. I dont even know where to start with this, but i guess an rcd is a good one! I got a mains shock at college last week from a broken air conditioner, really not willing to risk that one again (wasn't my fault at all)
