It's not their humour at all that puts me off, although the guy is definitely trying hard to find a niche and be cool, and that's fine if that floats your boat. For me it's the whole thwackety, thwackety, thwackety (I tried to describe it as best I can!) slap thing at a million miles an hour that for me personally has no real musicality, it's almost an ego thing. I've always been drawn to players like John McVie, James Jamerson, Duck Dunn, Paul McCartney where serving the song is their mantra and the tone is wholesome. I totally get a lot of slap players are technically proficient players, but seems like way more style over substance to me.

Great playing, very tasteful 😁

Have just taken a look at a couple of Davie 504's videos on YouTube. Safe to say that will be the last time.

This is me in a nutshell 😁 The only bit of slap I've ever liked was in RATM's Take the Power Back and a couple of songs from the Chilli's Blood Sugar Sex Magic record - If I hear the faintest bit of slap and pop watching a bass vid I'm off.

Reminds me of the guitar Robbie Robertson used during Emmylou Harris' performance on the Last Waltz.

Just a thought, but is the date/time of the recently updated view being populated by the last time someone looked at that post, rather than the last time someone actively updated the post by replying or adding an emoji?

The dates on the right are what I've been using since I joined the forum - I'll be completely honest I've never looked at the dates on the post itself but can see why they would be relevant when ordering by start date.

Sort by Start Date looks like this... It's better but still not in order.

I have no idea how bumping works so apologies if I've missed anything obvious, but a couple of the posts that are showing on the first page for me are back from 2020, one from May and one from October and neither of these seem have been edited recently so not sure why someone would be bumping a thread that's almost a year old.

Yes have tried all of that - I opened a new thread on this same subject a few days ago. Have marked it all as read and tried changing to started by date then back to last updated and everything is still out of sequence.

iPhone, MacBook Air and work laptop all the same for me, jumbled up and out of sequence. Same for the for sale thread

Same for me

This is a wind up surely??

I’m not sure if this is just me or not, but bear with me. It looks like the default ordering of posts is done by most recently updated descending. Whenever I look at the list of posts on either my iPhone or MacBook here at home the posts are always jumbled up, and even changing the order to something like start date and then back to most recently updated doesn’t seem to reset it, the posts still appear in a strange order. Is this just me that’s seeing this or do other people have the same issue? I have logged into the forum with my work laptop which is Windows 10 and it seems to display fine - Have just tried looking at the classifieds area on both a Mac and my work laptop and that's not ordering correctly on either device - the posts are all over the place and it's impossible to reorder them into the correct date order (Screenshot attached) I don’t have the problem on the iPhone or MacBook when I view all activity though, that shows everything in the correct date/time order starting from the most recent first.

Saw Oasis at the Exeter Westpoint on their Be Here Now tour in 97 I think. It was by far the loudest gig I’ve ever been to, like proper ear splitting - had ringing in my ears for days. Seen them a few times and they’ve always been a proper loud band. Saw Senser sometime in 95 and was in the mosh pit for most of the gig. That was proper loud but definitely in the top 3 gigs I’ve been to just insane.

That. Looks. Amazing!!! You can just tell by the quality of the construction it’s a real passion, looks fantastic. is that a double sided pcb? Have built a few pedals before but never used sliders before. how does it sound?

My first Trace rig was a 1518 15" cab with the hard wearing vinyl covering and red stripes on the front, coupled with an AH130 GP7SM head - Built like an absolute tank and sounded so good. Had it in my halls of residence room practicing whilst a student in Cardiff in the late 90s - not sure my housemates and the rest of the flats were too happy about it 😂 I can still remember the smell it had when the head was running, aah the memories!

Hearing damage and loss of bowel control pretty much guaranteed with this setup...

Even the brouchures are things of beauty 😀 Thanks for sharing them @DiMarco

Might be a little bit over your budget, but I’ve recently bought a pair of KRK Rokit RP5 G4’s and they’ve been superb. I paid £285 from Gear4Music, they arrived next day the service was excellent.

Jesus Christ. Hope they throw the duvet in with it, looks beautiful.

Probably, because in the vast amount of instances where companies have been bought out, said company’s quality goes down and corners cut in order to increase profitability and recoup the money spent by the parent company in acquiring said company. It happens all the time, and if these moves went well all the time and quality stayed the same or went up then people wouldn’t be so pessimistic, but they don’t, they usually end up going south.

It was just a suggestion to say there’s 30gb of free storage available if needed, that it’s easy to use for backing up music files and would be an acceptable solution for keeping the files safe rather than binning the original files and regretting it later on. Having worked as a web developer for over 15 years I’m well aware of how cloud storage works and the pros and cons, it was just a quick and easy suggestion to help the OP backup files.

GarageBand saves its project files in a folder inside your user account on the hard drive so it should be fairly easy to back them up. As others have said, you definitely want to keep the original project files for working/mixing in the future and storage is so cheap. You get 30gb storage space with a Google/gmail account so could create one just for backing your files up
