Probably explains why I was almost run over when crossing the road by a jaguar the day before yesterday! Yeh, but they are drummers and we don't care about them. Because that is the crux of the song. You can play around with the sounds and even to an extent the rythmn, and you can still have the same song. You can often find completely different versions of the same song by the same artist done with different instruments and rythmns. Also, often the person writing the song just has a guitar or a piano, doesn't mean the final track will be like that

I have the NP5, which is the 5 string version of the P pickup on my maruschyk. It brightened up the sound greatly over the pre-existing (Haeussel) pickups. made it sparkle a bit more, which I couldn't do with a string change.

If I am playing out loud upstairs I use my Bose s1, which is great. If I am outloud downstairs I use my Spark, and if I am quiet then I use the spark with headphones, or if the ipad is out, headphones with the jamhub. Most of the time it is the Bose

There is a man who didn't grow up in a university town

Very interesting. Need one day to get something like that and add individual buffers to it, see what comes out.

Ooh - that is an interesting pickup. Would like to get one of those and individual buffer it. That would be pretty epic. Mind you, a bit expensive!

OK, that makes no sense. I assumed they were individually buffered. Well that removes the only bit of interest I had in them. See the first time I was actually 'blown away' by a sound was the hexafuzzz on the original Roland Guitar Synths like the GR300 (was that the blue one)? Where the sound from each string was taken, buffered, distorted and then put together, it got rid of a lot of 'noise' and gave it an amazing sound. So I always wanted to do a separate string buffer pickup on a bass, but unfortunately I am just incredibly lazy so I haven't had a chance to do it yet. Can't see any point at all. What are these pickups you spoke of?

That I can see from doing neural network training. When a network is made it is completely open and capable of anything, after a while of training, it is not capable of learning some things because those neurons have been used for something else. This wasn't relating to the OPs point, this is from additional conversations where the topic has drifted, sorry. Thats fine, not trying to convince anyone! Just seems reasonable to me. I have met very few people with perfect pitch, but many people that claim to have it. BUt that has nothing to do with the OP, as I said.

They were asking for the location. But good point to mention to @scrumpymike that it needs updating

It has to be there from birth / young

Both times were at a gig but obviously the pedalboard is going on quite some time before we start to check everything is ok.

I have had a couple of times when I have turned my HXFX on and it has said 'firmware failure', so I turned it off and back on and it was fine. But it has never failed when running.

Not sure what you mean with those buttons (google has nothing like that for me), but if I touch the search bar of my safari on the iPad, it has a popup of frequent and bookmarked sites and it is in there.

It doesn't matter does it, as long as you call what you see green, and I call what I see green, it doesn't matter what we see as long as we have a common name for whatever it is.

notifications and then unread.

True, but there is only so long you can put up with your tribe singing "I know a song that will get on your nerves" before you learn to articulate 'shut up'!

Surely that again is not the point? You can stick any old pickups through a couple of preamps to eliminate the interference between the picksup, or even just buy some EMGs which have that already done. But that doesn't give you individual string buffering to get rid of inter string loading. That is the wals main feature. Not knocking wal at all, I am sure there basses are nice, played one once, it was pretty good, seemed a bit like an overwater really, too much for me to be interested in (and also too heavy). Unplugged, nothing hugely different. But plugged in, elecronically, unique. I think the idea of doing a 'wal clone' would have to be about the electronics.

What's Would be the point of a wal clone without the electronics? Something that just looks a bit like a wal?

Could have been there to give it a sense of 'we are all too out of our tree to notice'.

Well, the deepmind is their synth, whereas all the others are just copies of older synths, so it is going to be more flexible. If I was ever going to take a hardware synth to gig with, it would probably be the blofeld, as it is not only a fantastic synth, it can also do samples which is handy. But it is just more stuff to cart around and I have no shortage of that!

Mine just connects to my iPad and iM1

G&L do a jazz style bass, I assume the neck on that is thinner?

I would say that jack socket has the ring and body shorted out so the battery is on permanently

If it was a 5 I would have bought it before this thread was up! Got tempted by the HoD, but honestly not gigging, I don't need this stuff.
