Another person has come up with the same song as a possibility too. Hopefully we can find some lyrics or even listen to the song to see if it's 'the one'.

[quote name='KK Jale' timestamp='1505414773' post='3371817'] A possible contender: Ronnie Hilton, Love You I Will, UK 1964 Can't find it on spotify nor youtube, alas. [url="http://www.45-rpm.org.uk/dirr/ronnieh.htm"]http://www.45-rpm.or...irr/ronnieh.htm[/url] [/quote] Thank you! I'll take a look Your efforts are appreciated!

I've been asked if I can find out some more about this song; it's quite important to the person asking. I would like to call upon the collective and impressive knowledge of Basschat to see if we can figure out what it might be. The Lyrics we have are: [color=#1D2129]"The king is richer than I am .. but I don't envy the king .. although the king is richer by far I have you and that's everything [/color] [color=#1D2129]( chorus) love you I will until the years have fallen away .. love you I will until forever and a day ....[/color] [color=#1D2129]The birds sing sweeter than I do .. but I don't envy the birds .. although the birds sing sweeter by far .. nobody taught them the words ( chorus) ...[/color] [color=#1D2129]"[/color] [color=#1D2129]Thank you Basschat x[/color]

I wish to remain anonymous.

[quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1505408552' post='3371731'] In the analogue tape days it happened all the time. Often songs would be slowed down or sped up slightly at mix down thus rendering them 'out of tune'.....I know we've done it more than once back in the 80s It was often done for various reasons: 1) it sounded better that way 2) It covered up a timing error 3) It was easier for the vocalist to sing 'in tune' etc etc [/quote] It would also be down to the mix and mastering stages too. A band may have had their album tracks recorded at a studio using magnetic tape machines. Which isn't a problem if that same machine and studio was used for mastering. The tapes would in many cases be taken to another studio to indeed be mastered and of course have the 'template' discs for vinyls cut. Often, the tape machines there would run at subtly different speeds. This would affect the final pitch of the recording. Sometimes there's only a slight difference, such as Queen's Another One Bites The Dust.

I knew someone who had a switch installed hidden under the dashboard that cut the power to the starter motor. Even 'hot wiring' wouldn't help.

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1505316206' post='3370992'] I use my Smoothhound without difficulty when performing. I only bought the G70 because of the mental deal Andertons have at the mo. I'm happy to be out of date on average latency times, and if I am then it makes even less of a difference to the OP. [/quote] I think that this almost needs a thread of it's own. "The best wireless systems for bass - including best latency figures". I'm also interested in the methods used to get those latency times down as which are the most resilient in a 'noisy' environment. I've tended to stay away from wireless systems for both of these reasons, but I could be swayed!

[quote name='Bill Fitzmaurice' timestamp='1505317356' post='3371003'] It's not an issue where bass amps or club size PA is concerned, nor for that matter with pro-touring sound, where the power amps typically run on 220v. [/quote] Hey Bill, Wasn't that what Alex said? Power amplifiers running at 110v is "a bigger issue" than those running at 220v. I guess it'd apply anywhere in the world - or have I missed another point being made?

[quote name='ped' timestamp='1505313140' post='3370956'] How many milliseconds later? [/quote] *test timed out* ha ha

I'm a great fan of lists! I'd love to see digital pedals and hardware measured - to see what the real world figures of all these devices are. I wonder if the manufacturer's figures fluctuate as much as those for amplifier 'ratings'. I'm sure I could set up a way of measuring latency right here. I might give that a go later on to see what I can come up with.

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1505151478' post='3369859'] Ok that was a seriously impressive response! Are you sure you didn't previously work for Bell Pottinger? [/quote] I actually had to look up [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]Bell Pottinger. They seem like nice people and could probably benefit from having me on the team ha ha ha ha!!![/color][/font]

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1505150373' post='3369840'] b ) (More seriously) that the mini version does everything that full sized version does but just takes up less up less real estate? [So if we are getting a new one we might as well get the "mini"?] [/quote] Oops sorry, missed this bit - No, get the big one simply because the smaller version doesn't have the +1, -1, -2 controls on top. There's no -2 knob by default. I rarely need the extra control - and, TonePrint is more than enough for my needs I still adore Sub n' Up.

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1505150373' post='3369840'] Ok Dood, forgive me, but I can't resist asking you a very cheeky Q! Given just how amazing the TC Subn'ups are from your description and your kind reminder to all us BC'ers of this fact this at 10.30am this morning and perhaps a bit left field from where the discussion had been previously heading on the thread** [i]why [/i]at 3.30pm today were you selling yours?! Is it a) because now you've achieved octave perfection via Toneprint it has ceased to be any fun for you?, or b ) (More seriously) that the mini version does everything that full sized version does but just takes up less up less real estate? [So if we are getting a new one we might as well get the "mini"?] **we still haven't responded to abc's question about the cost of getting a bespoke design on a COG - the answer I think is on the COG website i.e. they will provide you with an online quote for that, depending on what you want done. [/quote] Mine is up for sale as I am a poor professional musician and I want to buy the MINI version of exactly the same pedal. I can't afford to own both as much as I'd like to - Yes, TC have just brought out a tiny version of the same pedal using exactly the same electronics (bar one knob). I've a small pedal board that I use for Dep gigs and 'fly dates' which I'll be able to make a bit smaller to fit in my gig bag.
