Thanks for more of the comments, all useful stuff. Skol303 - Mountain Mother works for me and no-one else has reported issues, does it play for you now? 51m0n - lots of stuff to have a look at there! I'll have a play around with them tomorrow night with your suggestions in mind, makes sense to have a dry run on the mix too. I've gone back and forth between recording it live or using a click two or three times now, the rest of the band are easy either way which doesn't help!

Hi Skol glad you like! I'll have a look at Mountain Mother when I get home. Mix - wise I'm not too worried about this time round, I've been lazy on a few things that will be done properly when we record them to a click in the new year. Was just an exercise to make sure the songs worked and to try out backing vocals in the comfort of my bedroom rather than under the judgemental (and amused) gaze of my bandmates. Thanks for the input.

I've used the focusrite liquid saffire 56 and it's a nice bit of kit, you get eight inputs with nice preamps (two with a load of DSP effects on them) and lots of connectivity options. Would be overkill for most home applications though!

Thanks! All were mixed by me actually - don't think laptop speakers do justice to the bass Got to get some gigs before recording and hoping we'll be able to get some good ones with this demo.

Comments on [i]anything[/i]* welcome! Guitar and bass tones okay? More harmonies needed? Too many BVs? *to do with the songs!

Have just finished a couple of demos: [url="http://shipofgold.bandcamp.com"]http://shipofgold.bandcamp.com[/url] Recorded live in our practise room - drums recorded with 4 SM58s, bass and guitar DI'd (bass through Catalinbread SFT and guitar through POD) and vocals overdubbed with 58s again. We're hoping to record properly in the new year so just need some input re song structure and backing vocals, this is a dry run really. Will be recording to a click when the time comes (drummer plays to a click in a live post rock band he's in so not worried about losing groove) but I want to know exactly what we need to record so we don't waste any time in the studio. Any comments welcome! Enjoy

VGC has been in a pedalboard since new. Passive, power is for LEDs only. Still not sure what make it is (Blue/Red/Bright Onion have all been suggested) but it works a treat just not needed anymore. As above £SOLD posted. Thanks! -
Bump - both items ending today! -

Getting rid of the pedalboard as I'm not using the wah much anymore. Snarling Dogs Bootzilla fuzz/wah - excellent condition has always been in a pedalbord. The only thing is I took off the little rubber feet when I put it in the board and can't find them now so... £80 posted, offers considered. Blue Onion (I think) loop/mute pedal - again in excellent condition, two switches one is loop on/off the other is tuner mute on/off. Had the Wah running through the loop so I could turn fuzz on and off without effecting the 'un-wah' sound. £30 posted, offers considered. Pedalboard - Is just a bit of MDF I sprayed, put some rubber feet from an old crybaby on and then drilled holes to zip-tie the pedals on. Worked a treat and goes in a Maplins case (included!). Nice and compact. £30 posted, offers considered. Will post up individual pictures when I get home, but for now: *Tuner not included!

Thanks! Had to dig the snare out a bit by EQing a bus channel of the overheads, unfortunate side effect was more cymbal but it's better that way than with no snare. IMHO

B-ump

Ha ha, ta very much!

Recorded live in the practise room*, just a demo to get gigs but opinions more than welcome. www.shipofgold.bandcamp.com Thanks for listening and hope you enjoy! *Kick + 2 overheads, SM58 guitar/vocals, bass DI. Recorded and mixed in Logic.

Thanks Eric, been having a think and I reckon I'm gonna keep it battered. Frets definitely need some work though, and it's for keeps I'm all about the punch!
-
I've had my Guild for a couple of years now, it's a bit battered but all original (including electrics!) so I haven't done anything to it yet. Recently been thinking of getting it professionally refinished, possible fret dressing/re-fret. Just got a couple of questions; Would it be sacrilege to get it refinished in olympic white? (Currently tobacco sunburst) Any tips on the best place to get a spruce up done? (I'm in Sussex so SE/London) Thanks people!

Cabinet sold!

SOLD SOLD SOLD Selling my EBS bass rig as a)I'm not gigging at the moment and b)haven't got a car so looking to pass this on. EBS Fafner and Evolution ClassicLine 410. The Fafner is amazing, 600w into 2ohms it can drive 4 8ohm cabinets (eg 2 1x15 and 2 4x10) or even 2 Ampeg 8x10s! Has never been out of the rack so excellent condition. Has been gigged but looked after (never been above 3/4, goes to 11!) and has a massive range of tones. Some reviews: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/reviews/showproduct.php/product/394/title/ebs-fafner-td600/cat/25"]Here[/url] 4x10 is from the clasic line which has a 'vintage' tone, goes well with the fafner and with the horn can cope with a lot of different noises. Both Sold

IMO it's easier to take stuff out, chuck everything you can think of on there and then start messing around with it.

Excellent condition, little use. Paypal gift/bank transfer.
