  1. Have you actually tried them? It does have a whiff of something about it. I had a quick look at the website, not quite sure about the speaker claims as there isn't much real info, but one that caught my eye was a speaker with claimed 10 degree vertical dispersion, 120 deg horizontal, seems a little far fetched.
  2. Just as a point of note, I'd make sure that the screw threads on the tuners are well lubricated, I used a copper grease. If it's anything like the Steinberger licenced ones on the Hohner Jack bass, they can get stiff and wear out eventually failing. I've fixed a few now using 4mm Helicoil type inserts into the sliders. These are stainless and will last forever. I'd consider doing this as a preventative measure, unless your bridge is very high quality like ABM where the sliders are brass.
  3. I've just popped a link up on the Eggle forum. Hope that helps! MBA
  4. That sounds like a poor piece of design. And a good way to tie users in to buying their valves only
  5. I don't agree Janek's vids are unwatchable, even in the mundane ones there's still often a lot of useful and inspirational content, even if it isn't just bass related, work ethic, nutrition and exercise comes across too.
  6. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1492100862' post='3277994'] My in depth review. Kasabian: 6-string 4000 shaped guitars look really silly. [/quote] I think those guitars are about the coolest Ricks you can get
  7. [quote name='mikel' timestamp='1492276688' post='3279174'] I quite like Joni, but as soon as she starts shooting up a vocal octave in random places, as she is wont to do, I switch off. [/quote] Lucky for you she doesn't do it on that tune! Phew!
  8. Do you not use your R24 as a control surface? If you have and don't rate it, I'd be interested to know, as I may be doing that soon.
  9. [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1492240863' post='3278833'] Cheers! And you're right... The mix sounds much wonkier on small speakers than it did on my monitors - and it's worst at the beginning. [/quote] I get this a lot too, the mix sounds decent on the studio monitors, then you play it on something "inferior" like my home cinema system, and suddenly you hear some right howlers! I need to put some rubbish speakers up in my studio for mix checking, keep meaning to get round to it. Monitors and headphones doesn't cover all bases.
  10. What a great snare sound!Nice playing all round.
  11. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1492203054' post='3278722'] Prince said this was one of the albums he liked all the way through. I love it too but it gives me the strangest feeling when I listen to it. I wonder if Joni put any subliminal stuff on it? [/quote] It could be that the imagery is so strong it affects your noggin deeply. The lyrics and music are so deeply integrated, the whole effect is more powerful than the individual elements, and that somewhat transports the listener into the narrative. Or something.
  12. [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1492185756' post='3278575'] I started off with 1 line - "Death From Above", and a slightly Phrygian bassline. Then the guitarist from my newly formed band came round, we had a fiddle and somehow it became our eponymous debut song. As we don't have a singer, and our drummer was on his hols, all those bits are down to me (I have to do everything, me!). So I spose it counts as an entry to the compocompo as that was the initial inspiration! And can I just apologise to those who think there's rude words in it, there isn't though it's a touch suggestive if you can hear it. It's just my diction is poor! And I'll apologise to everyone else because of the racket... [url="http://soundcloud.com/leonard-smalls/16-choke-start"]http://soundcloud.co.../16-choke-start[/url] [/quote] Great stuff as usual Leonard, got more than a little Primus vibe to that. The mix sounds a little wonky though, the guitar and drums aren't quite integrated with the vocals, or something. Just rambling, a bottle of Cloudy Bay to the good... hic!
  13. The Hissing of Summer Lawns does it for me. I can't imagine many folks not feeling chilled out after listening to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erQUlp6GYno
  14. [attachment=242990:P1030949.JPG] As promised, a picture, showing the chappie in operation. Cheers MBA
  15. Is there going to be a new noodle thread each month? It might be useful to remind us to do new ones regularly. I find months go by with nothing done unless I get the occasional prod...
  16. No, I mean this shape: http://thumbnail.image.rakuten.co.jp/@0_gold/auc-ksound/images/PICGBGG50H.jpg
  17. Definitely worth trying. The small extra load may just tip the Line6's psu into protection/current limit/shutdown or whatever mode.
  18. Isn't there a Goggle-Eyed Git?
  19. 6 simultaneous tracks recording, built in CD writer, 12 track faders and a decent drum machine, this is handy for live band recording and demos etc. I've just bought a Zoom R24 and still have an MRS-1608, so need to unload this. It's in good working order, I've just reflowed the phones socket and input power jack so no more crackles. I will empty my files off it before shipping. Cheers MBA Pictures to follow
  20. I hear "Hey there Georgie girl" in the first line of CamdenRob's ditty. Makes me think of summer, so, job done!
  21. Here's mine, still enjoying the bass wah on the new Zoom R24... https://soundcloud.com/julian-moss-511168525/april-noodle-2017
