Reading them got to be better than watching Glee or Friends! (the missus!), and she won't nag me for sitting on the laptop, ie on here, all night! Cheers[/quote] Sounds fair. Unless you're in a massive rush i'm gonna have a look for those two missing copies and i think i have a few more somewhere. Your call, I can either send them by the end of the week or wait until just gone easter [the missing one's should be round at my friends house and i'm heading over in a week].

Anyone missing a copy/want a good read? Available: Issues 51-61 [Feb. 2010 - Dec. 2010] excluding; 56 & 60 [July & Nov. 2010] Collection only, Camden (london). I have a few more somewhere from around the 2010 period. Some of these have hardly been opened so it'd be a pity if they end up in the recycling but that's where they're destined. Enjoy. Ashok Note: If you really want, I'll post at recipients expense.

I have a LD150 and it can be great but can be very annoying. Depending upon how much you like to 'play' with your sound, or just pick one voice and stick with it it's either great or useless. I kinda get the feeling it''s having a personality crisis at times, trying to be everything and nothing at the same time.

Roland Kirk.

For recording guitar n bass i'd say Micro BR is great (it's what iuse for recording) and can be used to do drums (both inbuilt and recording a drumkit - though that would require an external mixer) I haven't had much experience with the inbuilt rhythm kit but i have heard it's good, only down side to it is that it's actually so compact it can require a lot of fiddling about to get the right fx sound (no knobs to twist, instead button pressing waiting for numbers to count up/down) However the output it damn good, only down side, for some, is what you're putting into it.

[quote name='jake_tenfloors' post='809348' date='Apr 17 2010, 12:49 PM']Here we go, First bit is chanel A&B, second is just channel B and the last is channel A. Its a Gibson SG with everything flat, and on the middle toggle position. The crap playing is me [/quote] thanks for the replies. to be honest, i actually quite like that kinda 'deafened' tone. I'm not amazing at guitar by any means so i was just gonna use it for some simple chords. [just heard the 2nd half] yep it really doesn't pick up the treble that well. Ah well, i'll try it out when mine arrives and i have a guitar to hand. Thanks for the recording, very helpful.

Anyone ever put an electric 6-string through an EBS Microbass? Does it work? (i'm wondering what pre-amp to buy, and the EBS looks good as it has drive which i want but i also want to put my 6-string through it. anyone?

[quote name='lemmywinks' post='803305' date='Apr 12 2010, 01:31 AM']It's really easy to make your own, buy a sheet of transparent waterslide paper off eBay, get the decals off the net and knock up a sheet in Publisher. They work with any inkjet printer, i did some a while ago[/quote] waterslide stuff like Airfix n that do you mean?

[quote name='silddx' post='781847' date='Mar 21 2010, 05:45 PM']Either that or you are tapping the pickups with your fingers or pushing the strings onto them. Try dropping the pickups very much lower than the strings and see it the click disappears.[/quote] I used to get that, when the EQ was set properly it could sound like a machine gun.

enjoy it. (kinda obvious but you could be a nervous wreck which wont help at all, also - depending on your musical style - if you have some charisma, use it, even if you have to make your lines slightly simpler. I'm a boring ass bassist, i enjoy what i play but the crowd dont cause it looks dull)

Just to check, when you say contribute do you mean in the form of buying a ticket or just a donation? (i'm gonna vote yes either way cause it seems like a great opportunity to vote fellow basschatters however i was just wondering) Thanks Ashok (that's if there is any answer to that question)

Thought i'd restart this thread again as i was thinking the same question earlier today whilst waiting for the tube. Notice it didn't get many replies the first time around so second time perhaps a few more guys'll watch (or already have done?) Either way, great player.

it sounds like you just avoided some serious pain. it'll be a gig to remember though.

Watched it on the iPlayer, really good show. And the ex-DJ's comments about people playing air-guitar is comparable to a concert audience reading the sheet music i thought was quite an original spin on it, and quite true in some respects. Only downside was that it made me think how all the 'old rockers' (or heavy metal-ers) are now, well, old. Where's the new crew? Should there be one?

At local gigs (the gigs i've played at when i was 15/16) then it was common practise for there to be a backline n you just change the drum pedals, cymbals n snare. Saves a lot of hassle changing stuff about, but i would expect that all to be sorted before the night. Oh n add to that, i'd say that people might not have loud enough kit to use for gigs so they have to borrow it otherwise they can't be heard.

my first post was asking for free pedals... oddly enough i ended up getting one a few weeks later in the recycling thread. (it served me well to)

I own an Ibanez and i really like it, i dont think it's the same one as the one you're looking at but i just did a quick google images search (mine aint with me otherwise id just look at it's label) Anyway, it is really good n i really like the way chords sound of an acoustic, but that could just be me. So yeah anyway, Ibanez acoustics are worth the money i'd say.

I doubt many BCers live in Wigan and of the ones that do I doubt they'll come down but if this boosts our site traffic or gets people to search for us on [url="http://www.myspace.com/thebrokendoor"]myspace[/url] and listen to the tunes, or even follow us on [url="http://www.twitter.com/thebrokendoor"]twitter[/url] then my band will be placated and everyone will be happy!! Dan[/quote] I wont get to the gig, cause Wigan's a right trek. But i did just listen to your new single n thought it was pretty good. I'd happily check out more of your music if i could find it (any more videos or anything exist?)

If i was back at home I'd happily try n get along. ! thursday night, you could go out to Rosie's, it's student night (note: I am most definately being sarcastic, i've managed to avoid that place so far so can't speak from personal experience but one highlight is apparently the sticky floors... yum) [by the way, Rosie's or RBs, is a club in chester. On of the two, yes Chester has a whole two clubs]
