    Never 'learned' Mustang Sally. First time I gigged it was the first time I ever played it

    Is there a way to save edited sounds in a different order without using the editor?

    That's me out. I've bought a Future Impact. Honestly it would have been silly not to, what with the current price reduction.
  4. MacDaddy
    Future Impact. Haven't had time to have a faff, so could potentially be either.

    Saw this on the iPlayer. Well worth a watch, seemed to be an honest portrait of someone trying (and sometimes failing) to stay afloat in the music business. She's not a bad bass player too.

    Do opera lovers care about the arias? For example a literal translation of the Departure Aria, a very important and romantic song: This damn door sticks. This damn door sticks. It sticks no matter what I do. It is marked 'pull' and indeed I am pulling. Perhaps it should be marked 'push'?

    When La Bamba was number one in the hit parade, it was not because the British record buying public had become fluent in Spanish. Rammstein's substantial fanbase are not all fluent in German. Unless one is contriving to be controversial or inflammatory, lyrics do not matter a jot. Which is what this song proved:

    So on this rainy afternoon, I've decided to give home recording a go, after having Studio One 3 on the laptop for the last 4 years. Well I've fallen at the first hurdle. I've downloaded a bunch of tuition videos, but the sound cuts off when I open the DAW. This happens both if the speakers are connected through the headphone out, or through the USB into my Line 6 GX. Any help appeciated.
  12. MacDaddy
    Still nope.
  13. MacDaddy
    nope

    If the set list is on the floor and I don't wear my glasses, I cannot read it. 🤓

    At Friday's gig, my band played 'Sex on Fire' and 'Wonderwall' among others. It seemed the entire pub was dancing and singing along.

    Because probably more so than any other, Malmsteen is very much the guitarists guitarist. I would guess the majority of his audience are guitarists. So who is the market for this? How many bassists are going to buy a bass, because it's the sig model of a guitarist? Kind of in the same way as how many guitarists would buy a Jaco Pastorius signature model guitar? Bono and The Edge, are on the Fender board, so it must make sense somewhere

    Not sure if this is a wind up, but it's on his official Facebook page. Jazz bass with Seymour Duncan pups.

    I'm not a collector, so for me it's a case of if I get new gear I want to use it.

    The Cult, at the Hammersmith Odeon last Sunday. They were better than when I last saw them 5-6 years ago, but they were missing a second guitarist which came through on a number of songs, despite the keyboard player trying to cover.

    Halloween gig last night. Epic. At times it seemed the entire pub was dancing or singing along. I was f/x free for a change. No-one noticed 😒 We don't have any monitors, so it was the typical case of the sound on stage being different to FOH. I thought I sounded a bit trebly, but apparently out front it sat really well in the mix.

    I came to bass from classical guitar, pretty much transferring the technique wholesale as it were, so not lazy and not poor. For me, I don't have any problems digging in - although my preference is not to - and I don't think when playing the Foo Fighters, or AC/DC, or Thin Lizzy, my sound is too polite. You are of course welcome to judge for yourselves, and I would be delighted to see you tonight 😎
