Bernard Edwards used a Fender Jazz on such early Chic hits as “Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)” but for much of his career he used a ’77 Music Man StingRay, which Duran Duran’s John Taylor now owns. His clean recorded sound in part comes from recording mostly direct. “Bernard never changed strings,” says Nile Rodgers. “In one of my favorite interview quotes of all time, Bernard was asked, [b]‘So, what kind of strings do you use?’ He looked at his bass and went, ‘I don’t know; what kind of strings come on a Music Man bass[/b]?’”

its a good attempt, nice sound maybe make the notes shorter, nard seems to kill the note as soon as he plucks it (duff strings ) that way there is more of a gap, a more staccato(?) feel a good example is his playing on WHY by carly simon

what happened to the slide up to the octave © in 2nd and last verse? that adds some funk!

I will get a spare set with my Christmas money to keep in my bag. Do any of you guys clean your strings, and what with??[/quote] leave them in methylated spirit for 12-24 hours, you will get a much better result than if you boil them... imo. this link will explain, the yanks call it DENATURED ALCOHOL but we call it METHYLATED SPIRIT [url="http://www.tunemybass.com/strings/how_to_clean_bass_strings.html"]http://www.tunemybass.com/strings/how_to_c...ss_strings.html[/url]

came across this while browsing on the inter-web computer thingy-mer-jig [url="http://www.rainrecording.com/vista/"][color="#FF0000"]VISTA-INTERFACE[/color][/url]

[quote name='escholl' post='340433' date='Nov 29 2008, 01:14 PM']had no issues with the emu 0404 on vista. uses the same drivers as the smaller emu you've got listed above. the 0404 also happens to be the best card you can buy in that price range, IMO. or at least it was by far when i bought mine a year ago.[/quote] made my mind up to get the emu yesterday so phoned up DV247.com and they said [u]not vista [/u][u]compatible[/u] even though i told him there were vista driver downloads online!?!? thats why i`m not so sure

i am allergic to nickels however, i am not allergic to dollars or pounds

does anyone own one that is vista ready straight from the box? i know you can download drivers for m-audio, e-mu, and many others, but have read very mixed reviews gonna buy over the weekend ([i]thats why i posted in general, moderators [/i] ) so quick replies much appreciated please reply here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=32658&pid=340035&st=0&#entry340035"]VISTA-USB[/url] cheers mark
