"But the lure of bringing back The Who was too much for him to resist and he joined Daltrey, Townshend and [u][b]Moon[/b][/u] to plan the band’s North America Reunion Tour. Tragically, Entwistle was found dead in his hotel room on the eve of the first show." Were they planing on digging him up for the shows or was he just involved in the planning stage ?

[quote name='overwater' post='795732' date='Apr 4 2010, 02:47 PM']I did want these basses to be recognisably different from our UK handmade instruments – however both headstocks have been used by me before – so there is some continuity here. But as I said earlier, there will be quite a bit of re-working and refinement before we go into production and things will change, plus there are a couple of other models in the range not yet seen... It has already been decided that only the Overwater logo will appear on the front of the headstock on the production models. Prices will start around £329 in the UK for the passive ‘Classic J’ basses and around £449 for the active ‘Aspiration’ – raising up to around £899 for the ‘full Overwater spec’’ ‘Elite’ models.. Five strings and fretless will be available before the end of the year...[/quote] Hi Chris, Been watching the thread with interest and am very interested in trying these out, will you be stocking them at the Jam Factory? Would love to visit and catch up. Best wishes Dave Anderson

[quote name='deathpanda' post='801454' date='Apr 10 2010, 02:02 AM']This may sound stupid, I'm an amateur "producer" after all, but I've looked and can't find what I'm looking for... so here goes nothing; I have a DVD that I got free in a magazine, and it has a shed load of drum samples, really decent quality and royalty free. Each sample is a .wav of each individual pad (kick, snare, hat etc..) and I was just wondering how I can go about using them. I've been using reaper and I'm really comfortable with it now, so I was kinda hoping there's an easy way to it. Perhaps there's a vst plugin which lets you load and edit the samples, and then trigger them with MIDI? I was kinda hoping this was the way, but I fear it's gonna be much harder than that. I have actually been wondering about this for a while, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers in advance[/quote] What sequencer are you using? Reason, logic and Cubase have their own soft sampler which can have these individual hits loaded into key maps and triggered via midi. Quite complicated to explain via messages, there will probably be something on youtube? [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_P_0tbjPdE"]Logics ESX24[/url] Dave

Im sure that's a Marlin?

[quote name='jamiesonk666' post='781011' date='Mar 20 2010, 06:29 PM']Thanks for your help. YOu may have saved me from a major headache and pocket ache. Theres nothing to save me from Midi hell now...... [/quote] MIDI Hell simplified! Roland PK5 or try the Elka PM13 or PM18s simply plug in and press the notes with your feet, Ive done it for years with various samplers and so has Doctor of the bass.

[quote name='ThomBassmonkey' post='771974' date='Mar 11 2010, 06:47 PM']While I agree with most of the stuff said on this thread, I don't see your point there. Do you expect bands to bring their own generator to gigs to power their amps or something?[/quote] No, As a working musician for 20 years and FOH sound engineer for 5, I would ALWAYS expect anyone playing to bring enough power extensions and leads to make sure THEIR gear is powered up. It's no-one else's responsibility to provide an extension, if you come to a gig with no 4 gang and need one to power all your pedals and amp then it's a fair assumption that one night you will encounter a gig you wont be able to play due to your bad organisation or laziness. It's not too much to expect, but i get it almost every time i do FOH. However EVERY TIME I play a gig, I can power every bit of gear i need to play the gig plus spares. Dave

I love stingrays and love 8 strings so........... Im going to turn this Into one of these, Just bought the OLP and have ordered Wilkinson sealed tuners and a Schaller 3D 8 string bridge. I know what i want it to be when i finish, I just hope it works as well as I think ATB Dave
