You always record dry DI'd and then reamp to have a fiddle with the tone.

The singer in my band also does some acoustic stuff and I like remixing/re-imagining songs. Rough mix of the Dibnah version of her song Beautifully Broken (see [url="http://www.myspace.com/leahruthmusic"]http://www.myspace.com/leahruthmusic[/url] for original!) now up on my myspace [url="http://www.myspace.com/dreaddibnah"]http://www.myspace.com/dreaddibnah[/url] Still got some tweaks to do but always good for some input before it's finally finished, fire away!

Today has been Solid Steel and Hospital Records podcasts.

It fits

I saw a bit of Mumford(? also) and Sons and thought they wasted the number of vocals they had, could have had some massive harmonies going on. Like: (30 secs)

I bought 2 of the 2x12s and 2 of the 2x15s for £1000 about 6 years ago, sold the 15s cause they were just too damn heavy but they were bottomless, amazing rig!

[quote name='Mr Fudge' post='871294' date='Jun 18 2010, 10:56 PM']I am no expert but on our Dynacord desk there are 3 or 4 channels that can be selected for phantom power. I was told that if we miked a drum kit up that phantom power would be good for cymbals. this may have been bollox though and we have never used it.[/quote] Phantom power is only used to power mics/di boxes, so would depend entirely on the mics used! Generally condensor mics (most of which require phantom power) are used as overheads so kind of right. AKG C1000 for example, good cheap overhead for drumkit and needs power, either from batteries or phantom from a desk.

[quote name='algmusic' post='877267' date='Jun 25 2010, 11:45 AM']I've the 3 channel.. it's great for gigs if you want different sounds or volumes during the gig or a different bass.. and it helps when you're starting out remembering what sounds good and sounds guys love them.. (just don't give them to much bass (more than75%) or the mix might sound muddy.. I know i'm being fussy.. its shame you can't get the sanamp sound through DI and a bypass sound out that goes into you cab as well as the coloured sound.. I'm just being geeky.. It's great for recording either at home or in the studio tooo . the think the 'blend' dial is the important key to it[/quote] There's probably a way to do it with some sort of splitter pedal... Just need to fix and sell my old peavey and I reckons I'll be getting one of these then

I quite tempted by the programmable 3 ch one, is it the same internals in a different box?

Yeah Red Onion, would highly recommend think it was about £40, silent and very positive switching. Power is for the LEDs only.

Here's my intricate setup: Wah always on switched in and out with the loop pedal, love the wah but hate having the switch at the top of the sweep.

Now that would be a good endorsement, I'd wear a Ginsters T-shirt on stage! Ginsters kick drum skin, pasty shaped bass anyone?

I'd do what Mog says, contact GK and say you've been offered this deal but really like their gear is there anything they can do for you? A few bands round my way are 'endorsed' by Monster, one even got a Herbalife endorsement. WTF? Seems to be the in thing to put your gear on your myspace even if you're not endorsed as well.

Stunning bass

Cool, thanks!

That's a good tip I'll check out some US sites for an Artist, even been searching for the Jolana Disco:

[quote name='Shaggy' post='873715' date='Jun 21 2010, 06:25 PM']I paid £500 for an RD Artist with non-orig p/ups and electrics which I reckoned was fair.[/quote] Lucky bugger, love the (look of the) artist bass what's it like to play?

You're right! Can you remember how they're wired? Is it ring- battery ground (blk), tip - pup hot (red), and sleeve - ground (bare)?

Stole the input from my Peavey Millenium to use in another bass but want to get the peavey working again, only have a red and a black wire to connect. Will be using a switchcraft input unless there's any recommendation for better? Cheers

Palm muting and picking with the thumb? Use that method for some dub lines I play, instant thump.

Anyone know if this case: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tweed-Bass-Case-Fender-Type-/380237415923?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item5887ea85f3#rpdId"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tweed-Bass-Case-Fend...887ea85f3#rpdId[/url] Will fit a B301? Internal width is 36cm which I think is gonna be tight? Am waiting for a B301 to be delivered want to get the case on the way too! If anyone can measure their guild for me that'd be awesome Alternatively any other cases I should look at (quite like the tweed though!) Cheers Gareth
