RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Must just be my machine then

I've decided the thing to do , is buy a speaker dock from it with USB. Also , I've just found out that line 6 are gonna do a similar irig/apogee type of thing probably next year. Cheers

My first gig was, in a pub opposite where capital radio used to be . It was for my 3oth birthday, in front of 200 people. Before , I was scared. After 2 songs and dodgy monitor box sorted out ,I loved it. We found venue by chance. , as there was a flood in the pub we were gonna play in.we had4 days to get somewhere or my birthday was ruined. The band was formed of workmates(some of my best friends still now ) The singer was already in a band, the drummer quit so we had a friend who was also a gig virgin. , who played drums through his keyboards. The guitarist. who now runs ch guitars, showed ginger from the wild hearts how to play. He also showed me how to play. Great night

About 2 weeks ago I was prompted by software update to download the latest version of iphone(5from4) also my iTunes on my mac mini. What's happening since, is that I every time I try to go into I tunes , it keeps telling my to download the latest version that I've already done. I have to manually go into my iTunes folder go access music etc Does anyone else have this problem?

just tried the free version of gk app (very briefly). The sound is slightly better. Just wondering whether I should take this back to Apple and go for the Apogee instead. Wonder how many days I have to do it...Got the irig last Friday

Thanks for that chaps. I don't fancy returning the irig(bought it last friday) . If I get the GK app , will that do it?

Just looked at the preferences on the irig. (setup /level in/level out) The volume is a tad better. I am getting feedback . Now another (silly ) question: If I purchase the Bass head from amplitube, will the feedback disappear? What seems to be happining(in a nutshell), is that the lead amp on the irig is acting like an ordinary guitar amp. If it was not a virtual amp ,it would blow up. Please could you advise

Okay , I got myself a new iPad .also a new irig. I downloaded a few apps. When I plugged irig into the iPad , the sound was not very loud.(admittedly , I only played the bass through the 1amp provided and never downloaded the bass amp yet.) Questions and set up: currently I play my bass through pod farm and a pair of studio monitors. I tried plugging the irig into the line6 ux1 box which leads To the monitors. The sound was barely audible. I then tried the iPad into my hi fi and that seemed okay. So , do I sell the studio monitors? Or is there something I could do instead? I haven't tried GarageBand yet. Please help Cheers

Jackson bc rich ESP Spector and the rest already mentioned

Cheers rob and all

Thanx guys. This week, ipad and irig.Garageband will also be tried. Then ,I record (something)

Thanks guys. Of course I'm not made of money, but my birthday (which I. don't celebrate as much)is in a few days so I must treat myself. Also I should be getting a small bonus(about half the cost of an iPad)from the company I work for. So,iPad /amplitude here we go

seems like iPad is the way to go

Thanks Rob . I ' ll do that . Unless someone else on here tells me not to get ipad.) What setup are you using?

Thanks for that Mornats. After looking around the net, looks like you are spot on. I was looking at alot of the Korg apps on the ipad,and what I basically want to do , is play bass with various ambient noises, with various real sounding drums /choirs sounds etc. The ipad has a load of keyboardy stuff ,which looks user friendly and fun. I was thinking of getting an ipad,an irig to plug the bass in and purchasing some apps . What do you think?

Well, I've been doing absolutely nothing over the last year since the band broke up . My basses have been gathering dust , and I've had 1 or 2 upheavels.I am just coming out of a huge rut , and instead of selling everything, have decided to lighten up and record stuff. Anyway,it may sound like I have alot at my disposal(gear wise) but , in truth I haven't got the foggiest how to use it. I will give you an idea of the stuff I have in my possession, and hopefully you can help. I have too many basses . I have mac mini. I have Line 6 ux1 with Podfarm./Riffworks. I have Logic Express.Plus an old M-Audio Radium 49 usb keyboard.Also Garageband What makes me mad is that, I grew up recording audio on cassette decks with ordinary peak meters. NONE OF THIS COMPLICATED(imo)GRAPH LIKE AUDIO INTERFACE, I will (probably) get an ipad midweek.I was looking at the Kaosiltor pro on you tube, which blew my mind. It doesn't look too difficult to use.However , there are quite a few apps on ipad which are similar. Now what I intend to do, is record my bass with ambient noises simultaneously. Without being put off by graph type interface. Could someone please advise me, asap as it looks like the ipad arrival is imminent. Thanks

Band fell apart last year. Doubtful if I have enthusiasm to do it again. This means I have an Aguilar cabinet and head, gathering dust in the bedroom. Could sell , but I'd miss 'em if they go. I see your dilemma.

When I post a topic, and go to new content , nothing appears

Thanks for your replies. I love the pro . It looks relatively easy to use.As I say, I haven't got an ipad yet. I have a mac mini(which I am using now.) and an iphone. I would think an iphone screen would be too small for this. Not sure wether to wait for ipad 3 or just get the Kaossiltor pro . Don't really need an ipad imo unless there are other easy to use apps like this.

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1321830957' post='1443641'] Yep, I've just gotten the iPad version. Haven't really played with it much yet, but it's great! Dead easy to use too! [/quote] Couldn't see the ipad version,(must be old age). I would imagine it may be better for me to get an ipad. There are a few keyboard thingys on ipad,which are similar. Gotta start saving I guess, for tthe ipad3!

These look like fun. I haven't got an ipad, but knowing my luck if I get the K K the ipad version would be identical. May offload a bass if it's worth it. Are these any good? Let me know

Looks like captain Birdseye in that pic.

You should use both. Improves your playing,and makes you more versatile.

Sorry, but I am still laughing about the cat. Sounds like you need to get some sort of magnetic cat flap, so that your cat or you don't get any unwanted visitors. Make sure your cat is not bullied by others. Bass doesn't look too bad tho' .Good luck with that.

Will get the DVD. My friend will probably burn MP3 for me.Don't watch music DVDs as much as I used to, but they're not so expensive these days , and as it's Rush....
