Upgraded the synth channel found a second sy200 for a decent price, the one up top is in the loop of the other, stacking lead synth sounds or a bass and lead sounds the midi control is awesome.

damn this in the loop of my dirt fixer sounds bloody great!!!! and just look at it

Total filth basically I put it in the loop of my damnation dirt fixer! And it’s super knarly and aggressive!

I’m very tempted having tried out there new genome pluggin which the amps and cabs are in the opus

more Non human audio in the house

You can totally connect the two direct as you say it’s exactly the same as what you are doing but as long as the connections are done correctly on the plug will be 100% fine. im a qualified sparks so not just saying this you’ll be fine.

No but I don’t really see the issue as you don’t turn up plug in the power and immediately start playing your set, very simple to turn things off or on? I’ve seen people get annoyed the other way at things not just turning on

this thing is great!!

Hey not sure if this allowed but im selling my 1000 core, if anyone is looking for one ?

If it’s the same as my infinity was you have to get a special midi trs cable as the standard trs midi cables didn’t work, something about the dg being type A over type B can’t exactly rem however they are super easy once that’s sorted to send pc and cc messages to

Oh for sure playing out will generate more interest, we’re at a point where we can’t and don’t want to gig every week, also want to play to decent crowds which playing once a month allows us to do, we do ok on merch, not looking to make a lot on money but simply get our music into more ears online, ie we’ve had a few plays on bbc introducing, but it’s the smaller local station however I know a few bands who have bypassed this step due to who they know…..hence why I’m not the biggest fan on bbc intro

thats def an idea i hadnt thought of tbh! and the social media i guess is actually growing a little over the last 5 or so months.

And here I guess is the main part, we post and engage on fb/insta when we are writing or doing anything cool or worthy of posting, we are playing decent home town shows, looking to play more next year but we have kids and I’m a single dad with two kids so can’t go touring etc we use YouTube to promote our videos and have dipped a toe In to TikTok (we don’t wanna do any silly viral memes tho) we’ve done fb boosts and Instagram stuff never really gets any real input for the money we put in, we get frustrated as sometimes it seems it’s more who you know that pushes you out rather than what you realise

who uses what platforms? Anyone had any success, im hitting a wall of both fustration and now turning into anger, nothing you do as a smaller band with out paying goes anywhere, sites like spotify ignore, Apple really dont offer any metric so we have gone for a more random approch of starting to use Soundcloud now aswell. we listen to all the podcasts which are meant to help and im sure they are all a simple push to get you to spend money pushing on ads in spotify etc, ive talked to local bands around us and they simly say they started by just streaming there stuff themselves to start the alg, honestly that just doesnt seem right to me.

last practice of the year last night

So quickly changed things a bit now have two switches for the individual pickups to go between series and parallel humbuckers, the pickups are both wired from the switches into the single volume pot so I’m gonna go with the are in parallel………. it sounds killer also I lowered the will power into the body more. I swear the pickguard doesn’t look this bad in person but I don’t really care

100% a reverse engineered ditto

a looper doesnt know whats going into it, im guessing thats what you mean by is is good for bass. the ditto is great however there are much cheaper versions i have a landlord fx looper which is £49 which is a noticable chunk of saving over the ditto or boss.

im def grabbing one of these! sounds killer

its basically two humbucker wired in the same way as a jazz bass looking for options for recording, i have both pickups on full all the time atm and like that sound so i dont need dual volume pots for blending, bypassing the tone is for fun. also atm its all done with electrical wago connectors so also not ideal! Andy

so I’m thinking of going with this just combined two circuits? Parallel series neck and bridge no split coils, and a tone bypass? im gonna put in a 0.03uf cap aswell any advice is welcome tho

Love the sy200 set up I’ve got going atm going straight to foh, do also have a fuzzrocious BDPG after it adding a bit more grit but adds another level to the sound big fuzz sounds sound even bigger when there’s a synth under them aswell!!
