I'm still using the Zoom 1608 but do find editing a bit/lot clunky compared to how it is done in a d.a.w., but I don't have a d.a.w.! The R16 and R24 are the natural successors and look to work nicely as a control surface. Not sure what it has built in in the way of compressor, effects or mastering. It's nice being able to record 8 tracks, so can do kit, guitar, bass and 2 vocals in one go.

Lots of people apply the technique to playing the piano, apparently.

Excellent sentiment.

That's a very decent thing to do, good for you. If she's a regular DB player, she would know how to handle a bass carefully and properly. It would be my instinct too, but I'm a little mindful of the expression " no good deed goes unpunished"

To be fair to the above, half of them are from kids TV

The only time a couple of girlies came up to me after a gig, I got the opportunity to make myself laugh. Girlie - "Do you play a lot of gigs round here?" (this was north London) Me - "Not really, but we're very popular in parts of Scotland" Girlie - "Wow, really!" Me - "Yes, personally, I'm huge in the Trossachs!" They wandered off looking confused, I laughed my head off inside. The Two Ronnies would have been proud.

but what a disappointment when you find he looks nothing like his avatar.

Well, line level is about 1V P-P and I'd think an active bass running off 9 or 18V would be able to exceed 1V p-p.

It's disappointing this error could take out a monitor. A signal from an active bass should just clip, not cause damage.

I prefer the "Walking on the Moon" approach. Play a few notes, then sing a few....

My sister berated me for the wobbly legs thing at about 2.10 in this, rightly so, I might add: https://m.youtube.com/?#/watch?v=XUUn_5qNguo Not really sure what I was thinking...

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1480590649' post='3185639'] Great idea. Shall have a think about a major Moondance revamp...... [/quote] To the tune of "Ace of Spades" ?

Darn it! Whatever site the image is posted on is blocked here at work. Bah! Humbug! *edit* just read the post again, so it's covers ahoy! Different, nice idea.

Lord Sausage and the Boy sounds like a dodgy 70's duo who, had they existed, would have been under investigation by Operation Yewtree by now...

That just about sums it up ^^

… may wish to avoid The James Street Tavern, James Street, Oxford (near Tescos on the Cowley Rd) this Friday 2nd of December, as my band, Charms Against the Evil Eye, will be playing our “music” there. This is the sort of thing to expect: https://soundcloud.com/the-new-moon We will be playing from about 21.00 and there will be a couple of other bands, and possibly some poetry being performed. Crazy!

Is this a strip tease?

Neutrik do silent connect plugs too. They are really nicely made. About 8 quid. They also have a cheaper line branded Rean. The switch doesn't look as robust, but time will tell. I've bought a couple, and will see how they go.

If you don't give it a really good shot, you'll always be asking yourself "what if...."

Voted! Sorry I didn't get an entry in this month, only got as far as a title. Sadly, "TankBird" got no further than that... Maybe it was for the best...

You don't have to change the cable, just lop the plug off and fit a Neutrik plug. They are as good as anything else out there, and aren't expensive in the grand scheme of things.

I always see that clapping as mocking and or ironic.

Anyone bought one yet?
