RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Wrong section

Thankfully haven't heard the Beyoncé song . The Cher one was that autotuned thing iirc. I just got the latest rammstein album and there is an autotuned track on that . Didn't think they'd do anything like that

Led zeppelin - Dazed and confused ..that awful video with page wearing the dated psychedelic shirt. , and that f&%#ing violin bow. Someone should have stuck it up his jacksy . Led Zeppelin - Kashmir Walking on sunshine - cheesy song found in Hollywood films Faith no more - falling to pieces .. juvenile rapping spoils it . Preferred Chuck mosely on record anyway . Van Morrison - Brown eyed girl Simoly Red - Holding back the ears . That poor rabbit . Well, anything by them really . Bryan Adams - anything I do for you Spice girls - Wannabe Smashimg pumpkins - anything I've heard by them . The vocals sound like an angry poodle . Dancing in the street - all versions I've heard of an awful song

In the old days of Basschat , there were a few rude comments made about peoples gear that was being sold . Thankfully the mods sorted that out , and Basschat is a good place to sell stuff . I do feel for you, but times are very tough due to cost of living etc and I hope things improve for you . Have you tried eBay ? I think that if you started out at a lower price say £77 for example , and see what gives . Regarding farcebook , hardly used it so ditched it . It was on Basschat many moons ago, that I heard about the negative issues about selling on it so I never listed anything . Ignore the negative comments , and don't take them to heart. The " people" on there don't know you , and they probably have posted similar comments on other peoples posts just to amuse theirselves . Glwts

Sorry to hear this . How annoying ! Quality control seems to be lacking these days . I have a moog grandmother , my first synth purchased a few months after its release . About 18 months ago, the pitch wheel became loose and ineffective . My local and close friend who has quite a few old synths from the '80s fixed it for me . Moog were very helpful in telling me how to repair it . Then a couple of weeks ago, I noticed the input washer at the back fell off ! Thankfully I found it , as it never left my flat. It was made of plastic , not metal of course . When moog released the 'dark' version of the Grandmother, the pitch wheel looked different . I saw it up close in Absolute Music . I'd say they had a lot of issues with that . One other thing I find annoying , is the very very tiny usb sockets on some keyboards and effects pedals like the Arturia Keystep etc. Plus those awful power supplies like on the moog Grandmother . Anyway , I hope things get sorted , and that you do continue your synth journey . Third time lucky and all that .

Did you get the Toro in the end?

Great stuff ! Pics of course when your Argon arrives. ( or thereabouts 🙂) I wonder if inmusic may takeover Modal 🤔. They have a lot of name brands under their umbrella. That's another story , so I'll leave it there .

Orchestral man hoovers in the park , numan league , manures live aid , Matt goss's hairpiece

No big deal really . You're still doing music at home . I'm happy experimenting with synths ,and pickup a bass once in a while , while trying to improve my recording techniques on GarageBand . Enjoy your new direction

Any news on the refund ?

Sorry to hear this Ray . A lot of stuff is slow moving ,due to cost of living crisis etc . I have sold a few basses and things on Basschat ,with no issues at all . Selling things like vinyl records though, I found fleabay the best . I don't do farcebook, or bumtree, and haven't really heard any positives about selling stuff on those platforms . Others may not concour , but it's just my experiences. I had 2 basses for sale last year on Basschat . When I decided to hold onto them , I then got a couple of enquiries . The only thing I'd be wary of on Basschat , is if there is an enquiry from someone that's had hardly any posts . That' could be me very extra careful though . Best of luck,on your journey also .

Good job I don't do Facebook . I wonder what the link contains 🤔

Yes , windows are a pane

Tears for queers, Frankie says relapse ,bananadrama, Frankie goes to Cricklewood

Sorry to hear this .

Mmm.. 2 weeks . On the plus side at least they made a decision , without dragging it out . They had to inspect it after being returned etc. . Hopefully not too long to wait .

Not much different from their earlier budget effects units imho . The looper is a nice touch . The synth sounds like fighting cats 🐈🐈‍⬛ . ,which is fairly common in budget effects units. Not for me but after seeing the vids , I may get out my toneport ux1 with the line 6 monkey🐒. Cost of living crisis etc.so cash saved ..for now . What would imho be a wimner for line6, is if they could sell an effects box with all the settings from the Variax Bass .

Someone will probably explain it better ; DI ( Direct input ) is where you have a cable going from your amp ( if it has a DI socket) into an audio mixer. Some multi effects units have a DI socket , which means that in theory you could plug the cable from your multi effects unit into the audio mixer directly without bringing your amp to gigs / rehearsals . Also, if you did use the multi effects unit , there is a button on the unit giving you the option of ' straight bass ' without effects if you prefer. DAW , is digital audio workstation . This is a device where you plug your instrument into it which allows you to record onto your computer

I assume you'll get the refund at some stage . Fingers crossed for you , that you haven't too long to wait . life and the cost of living crisis , does have a tendency to affect and annoy us at the wrong times unfortunately . Having said that , it's a temporary blip for now and you'll carry on your synth journey before you know it . Keep us updated .

Was this recorded on a farm ? 🐄🙂
