Aw man, thats a shame. Not that it will make a difference with the finnish you are going for. G

There is a good article in this months sound on sound thats worth a look. Lots of Lee 'Scratch' Perry references. G

This time last year overwater was underwater. Now shuker.... RIM - get your armbands bought asap

Nice one. You look comfortable with that style of playing so it clearly works for you. Looks like a sweet gig to get too G

The fella from reef - he is awesome! G

(Mind you, it was funny seeing them in the toilets try to scrape the black plastic off the bulbs!) Where can I get a recommended replacement? And yes, the band fund is paying![/quote] One of these?.........

Its very very well made, not too expensive and is actually padded and thicker than you would think. Highly recomended from me. G

Cool Really sweet player too G

Studio boffins lol G

I think it can be done. PM phatmonkey. he will sort you out. G

Welcome back mate G

I really like C1000's as over heads. They, to my ears, sound alot mroe direct. 414's are still the daddies though.... Alas, what i wouldnt give for a tonne of cash... G

Cool, Cheers everyone. Its between the MXL 604's, SE 2a's or Rode NT5's. Wicked. G

kiwi posted a heads up about a new one a while back. It is in this forum, maybe ont he second of third page G

The Nt4 is not what i am after. Although i am after a pair i may from time to time wanna use them seperatly. Ill look closer into the c02. I have never really used the samson mics but there is something about them that seems a little cheap. edit: £64 quid a pair?! No, i don't think these are gonna sound that great or last....

steve lawson at the edinburgh festival is always a winner

the c02 isn't what i am after... the great thing about the MXL's is that, with 604, you get a second diaphragm which is omni pattern. And it has the -10db roll off. I will look further into the SE though.... G

Nothing specific. Just a small x/y pair really. The first application will be a clarsach (scottish harp) but in future will be used for room mics, acoustic guitars, percussion etc etc.... Just want something small, cheap (ish) and reliable that sounds good. G

Anyone? Anyone recomend anything similar?

Hey Gringo! Check this book out, i have it and use it and its brilliant: [url="http://www.amazon.ca/Funkifying-Clave-Afro-Cuban-Grooves-Drums/dp/0769220207"]http://www.amazon.ca/Funkifying-Clave-Afro...s/dp/0769220207[/url] Literally the best bass book i own. The tracks in it are tough but very very rewarding and musical. G ps - last month BGM had some cool advice from Dave Marks in it too. pps - the cab is awesome

Check out some jamiroquai dude Nice cool grooves and some tasteful slap

Interesting how do you find that comp. I have been impressed with drawmer gear. G
