Does everyone erm ....know their time signatures?
Spoombung replied to Phil Adams's topic in General Discussion
If I had 2 bars in a sequence (one of 4 and one 3) I'd create a bar of 7 beats. It doesn't necessarily need to go into a 7/4 time signature. If you're writing in a sequencer I would keep the signature in 4/4. -

It's just 3 or 4. Anything like 5 or 7 I write in 4. You can make nearly anything beyond 3 make sense in 4 apart from 6 which is the same as 3. -

One of my heroes. I loved those flamenco techniques he introduced to the bass. The other side of him was like Hank Marvin: GA -TWANG!!! Wow! It's true his style isn't as harmonically sophisticated as some others and I remember his solos were once criticised for sounding like someone going 'bibble, bibble bibble' but I still think he's great.

Here are my two basses. The one on the right is a 31" scale custom bass and really suits me. I just cannot understand why conventional basses are so [i]huuuge[/i]!

I don't think he realises how [i]extraordinary[/i] that muting and plucking technique of his is. Most of us mortals can't get within a mile of it. I learned a bit of it then gave up and decided to use brute force for the remaining 90% of my playing.

I did see Grandmaster Flash on his first UK tour in 1980 and really enjoyed that.

I have only one hiphop record which I still like and play occasionally: http://youtu.be/95gP3m-uBHA I've gotta admit I'm attracted to the spooky atmospheres and loops rather than the lyrics

Yep, I'm a fan. I can only marvel at his funkiness and extraordinary technique. I love the way he works with drummers and programmed elements. Some of his playing tips have helped me too - especially his emphasis on playing as lightly as possible to avoid fatigue. I must get to see him in concert at some point.

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1395171262' post='2399468'] you could run it in a loop of a Boss LS2. Then leave your pedal on and turn it on and off with the LS2. Just set the loop volume on the LS2 nice and high. [/quote] Ah, that looks like a good solution. Thank you.
-
anybody...? If I could activate the pedal and have its volume boosted with one switch...that's what I'm after..
-
I have a pedal I want to use but it has no volume onboard and it unusable because of a volume drop when deployed. I'd like to get the pedal up to a louder volume. My question is, what is the cheapest and simplest way to solve this problem? Thanks Kev

The Moth: the most intriguing bass at the show for me And probably the best sounding, best playing and certainly one of the best looking basses at the show IMO
