That is very special indeed.

I have never edited video in anger, but my son borrowed my M1 13" MBP (16G RAM) to edit a 4 camera 4K shoot. Obviously it did not all happen in 10 seconds, but he was massively impressed coming from an i9 Windows laptop with lots of RAM which was just dropping things all the time and being generally unhelpful. For him it was the smoothness of the operation. There was no fuss from the machine at all. A 2nd hand M1 16G Mac Mini can be 650 on ebay if you hang around a bit. Unless budget is an issue (and when is it not?) then I would not consider anything older than an M1.

Jaco. But not for the tone, or for the chops (I would have, but....). I hear his syncopations in what I play. Not the fast stuff or anything we would recognise as "Jaco".

Fixed gain would make me walk away. I am a very happy SSL2+ user.

Proportion is everything.

Final piece of advice, make sure you get the impressions done with a thing that keeps your mouth open. I was on my 4th set before I learnt about this. It gives a much better seal.

Get the chord. Get them in solid loud colours, easier to not lose.

The monsterest of the monster on board preamps. What a machine!

I tried a Stick about 35 years ago. I still have a slight headache.

So, is the 945 a step up from the 745? I have a secret hankering for a 745 but maybe I should change allegiances.

I had never really clocked the line as such. Cracking. That bloke's wall is making me feel uncomfortable though.

Yep, I was just mourning the fact that my loud days were too LOUD and that I can no longer do those. But I can still do deep.

My hearing is too compromised to get excited about loud any more. But deep is The Bomb. I had an ACME 12" which was appreciably bigger than the "standard" 12" cabs. It went beatifully deep.

Nice.

Of course, if we all had access to a decent bridge we would not need any reverb plugins. https://fb.watch/gfvRFZqd4b/

Not a deal. But this seems to be the place to discuss plugins. After resisting buying a Strymon Big Sky for a long time I finally caved. Then they announce the plug in! https://cdm.link/2022/10/strymon-big-sky-reverb-plug-in/

I was in a guitar shop in LA, looked to my left and then mouthed to the guy serving me "isthatBBKing?". He looked over and confirmed that it was. I have lost his autograph.

That kind of looks like a RA Deep 5 which has been left too close to the fire and has melted a little. In a good way.
