RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Thanks for that. Will check it out

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1390753964' post='2349035'] I've heard of people recording vocals in the bathroom because of the natural reverb, but I don't think there'd be enough rehearsal space around the bath for an entire band. I recommend putting the drummer in the bath itself. Also, you may struggle to find an electrical socket to plug your amps into. [/quote] Apparently Judas Priest recorded the drums to British steel in the toilet . I"ll leave that alone. Anyway , bump to the op

[quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1390727711' post='2348568'] Weird.. I have been playing fretless for a rather long period (around 25 years) and I only want roundwounds on them...I've tried flatwounds but they miss the "bite" you need to bring the string to life. it's not because it's fretless that it should sound boomy or completely dead. I don't want my basses to sound like an upright or an acoustic bass so I prefer roundwounds.. Without any problem I can go back to my fretted basses although if I had to choose I would pick a fretless as my ultimate bass instead of a fretted one... Just recorded a clip with roundwounds on my fretless.. I don't feel limited by them at all. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6FRf3XlL8k[/media] [/quote] That was good;)

Thanks again. Quit podfarm and it still plays up. in the past, i have recorded without any problems. i even reinstalled everything on my mac mini a couple of weeks ago. oh well....

Thanks again Ambient. Garageband is 4.1.2 (2008) snow leopard. Interface is line 6 ux1

BTW, I am using podfarm at the same time. This shouldn't be a problem should it? Not a memory issue ?

Mr.Ambient. Thanks for your quick response. Please could you explain how to freeze. ? What I am doing is, laying down a drumloop on 1 track. Then play that back and record bass on another track etc. The fun starts as soon as i start playing a bassline cheers

whenever I try to put a few ideas together, the playback stops. A message appears,'this project has too many tracks etc.'Then mentions optimizing.. The thing is, I only use one track at a time. on this occasion, i am using loops from ezdrummer and a simple bassline. please help thank you

Wow

Have you gone into the line 6 site and tried their latest version .? I had to go to the licence and register my podfarm 1. When I did, I got podfarm 2. I use mac . Other than that, I have no idea

[quote name='LeftyJ' timestamp='1390400880' post='2344983'] Are we talking about recording or live use? On stage, I usually just use my amp's DI-out, and if I can I will also mic my cab because a mic captures the tube drive of my Ampeg preamp in a much nicer way. In the studio, I like to have choice so I generally take both a DI in front of my amp, the DI out of my amp, and a mic too if I can. My bass directly through a DI into the mixing desk provides a nice clean foundation with clear and well-defined lows for low-end push. Then I take the DI out of my amp for 'my' tone. And preferably a mic too because the tube drive of my Ampeg just sounds nicer through some good bass speakers with a mic in front In my experience, most live sound techs are lazy and just want a good DI signal to work with. [/quote] Sorry, not talking live use. Just for plugging into mixer and recording on garageband.

My gk amp has a d I out, and I was thinking of getting cable from there into mixer

Thank you Andy . Do you know if you can adjust the controls on the amp, or are they bypassed ?

Is this better than bass guitar into mixer.?

..or just plug bass in via guitar cable? I haven't used the gk for recording, and wonder if it will make much difference.

F@@king ipad won't show clips! Just blank spaces. Will look into this thread in more detail, on my Mac mini soon.

Not good for metal

Speaking of coffee..whatever happened to those shops with cats in them??

Wrong kind of bass. If it were bright yellow, he would be much more popular .

90p for a cappuccino ?( if I stay for half an hour) . Bargain. I know there's corruption in Russia , but this sounds too good to be true. What's the name of this coffee shop? Is it a chain ?

I use. Line 6 toneport ux1. USB interface. Does the job.

I tend to do both(effects and none). It's just that I'm amazed by the extra features 'on the fly'. Obviously, if you're not recording then effects are handy and fun if you want them.

Yeah, for that price you've gotta have a look

How many hours have you booked? Myself and old band, got there around 10am and finished around4.30. Manage to record 4 tracks. This included setting up (mr.drums included). Not as stressful as I thought. We were only going to do 3 tracks. Good vibe. Hope it goes well.
