In an odd way it's actually a relief they're being priced that high.

Sounds like he's been listening to his inner prog rock demon.

Try whipping him with a speaker cable.

Looking at it gives me a headache. It's like those pictures that may be a vase or may be two faces. I JUST DON'T KNOW.

Odds are you will make mistakes, but you'll probably be the only one who notices ; )

Relax and enjoy!

Bought EHX Stereo clone theory pedal of Theo. Everything went as it should be, pedal delivered fast ad well packed. +1

+1 from me.

He made parting with money as painless as it could possibly be : )

My bass is far and away more than I deserve, but my amp is vile and I lord it over that piece of sh*t.

I was expecting some sort of sick joke![/quote]
If you mean what I think you mean then we both spend too long on the Internet. If you don't then it's just me : )

Copypasta from the free software thread in Off Topic.

[url="http://www.arcanedevice.com/"]ArcDev[/url] - Handy delay and some wacky ring-mod-pitchshifter type thing
[url="http://destroyfx.smartelectronix.com/"]DestroyFX[/url] - Mostly noise/glitch orientated stuff. Buffer Override can be fun though
[url="http://www.dskmusic.com/blog/"]DSK Music[/url] - Tonnes of virtual instruments. I've been having some problems with these, but I suspect it's my temperamental motherboard
[url="http://illformed.org/plugins/glitch/"]dBlue Glitch[/url] - Glitch plugin. Throw different effects onto slices of a sample. Obscenely easy to use

Enjoy : )

There's some really weird routing underneath the scratch plate of my jazz (2005 US). There's a lot of routing around the pickup, and then a hole below and forward of it. Just a hole. No tracks to wiring to anywhere else and a really stupid place to put a control. I always assumed it was somewhere to hide your crack, because I can't think of any other reason for it.

Not sure if you've seen this yet - and I admit that I haven't really looked into it too much (standards compliance Nazi here, so we should be alright ; ) - but it seems to be saying that you can force IE8 into quirks mode from the page using various combinations of DOCTYPEs and a new META tag.

But yeah, might be worth a glance.

Gah. That's pretty much the sound I've been aiming at for months now and I haven't been doing it half as well as that : )

I really, really enjoyed it - nice work man.

Our frontman forgot the name of the charity we were playing a gig for.

"And don't forget to give generously to . . . these guys!"

/facepalm

+1 on the hi-hat side.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087332/quotes#qt0475910"]I'm with Egon on this one[/url]. When the survival of your publication depends on your advertising revenue what hope have you got of being truly impartial?

I certainly haven't seen another UK bass magazine in a while, and I spend an embarrassing amount of time in Borders.

I normally refrain from +1ing stuff, but this thread is fascinating. I wish I had the nuts to be this ambitious with my home recording : )

That fuzz pedal sounds obscene in all the fun ways.

I was actually kinda relieved when I did the currency conversion and came out with a scarily large number.

That'll be Morgan Nicholls. You can see him skulking around in the back of [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyLx0qc_gKc"]this video[/url]. As far as I know he's only been on the more recent tours though.

PMs o'clock!

Woah.

That's nice.

I think.

Yeah, that's nice : )

+1 for Reaper! I've been using it for a year or so now the stability has come on leaps and bounds in that time. It's starting to look like a serious competitor in the DAW market now, which at $50 for a non-commercial licence is borderline hilarious. That said, when you buy an audio interface they'll come with plenty of demo software.

-1 for the Mac Tax, but with a tentative +1 if you really don't mind paying the extra in exchange for having Steve Jobs hold your hand in the scary world of computers.

I have mine slung so that when the audience starts throwing stuff I'm not going to catch it in the goolags.

I know my priorities.

Depends on your definition of "good" but I've been GASing for a Dwarfcraft Devices distortion box for some time since they have a "battery starve" feature that just destroys the sound. Can't really justify the cost though, as I'd struggle to find something to do with it beyond making silly noises and giggling.

I had a bit of a search around when I first came across this video and as far as I can tell the guy is called Gustavo Dalfarra, or maybe Gustavo Dal Farra.

I really love this piece. Most bass solos are just masturbation, but that's actually music.

Would the bass riff sampled in Rapper's Delight be too long? Because if that doesn't make people grin then there's something wrong with them and they should be publicly flogged.

I had a credit card go like that once when I left it in my jeans and then tried to dry them on the radiator.
