[quote name='Doddy' post='776372' date='Mar 16 2010, 03:57 PM']The 3rd in C#major is always E#. The 4th is F#,and you don't have both an F and an F# in a major scale. It's nothing to do with playing piano or not. The theory is the same every instrument.[/quote] Having never been formally trained I'm obviously not tied to these whacky conventions that name notes according to the key being played.....as far as I'm concerned the 3rd fret on the D string and the white note to the left of the 3 black notes is an F irrespective of which key is being played and E# is a semitone higher than E and in my mind will always be F irrespective of which key is being played.

[quote name='Doddy' post='776360' date='Mar 16 2010, 03:46 PM']Same note enharmonically-different function technically.[/quote] but the same note all the same... So the 3rd in C#maj is E# not F? it'll always be F to me...maybe it's because I was brought up on piano... My initial post was merely pointing out that although 4#s key signature denotes Emajor, it also denotes C#minor... that is all

[quote name='Doddy' post='776346' date='Mar 16 2010, 03:28 PM']What was so funny about my post?[/quote] your assertion that the notes were the SAME but DIFFERENT just seemed a bit desperate to me how can notes be [i]the same note enharmonically,but they are technically very different. [/i]? Either they are the same note or they are not.

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='774216' date='Mar 14 2010, 12:05 PM']The sharps at the start of the line denote the key of E Major.[/quote] [quote name='Doddy' post='774402' date='Mar 14 2010, 04:12 PM']In this piece we are in E,[/quote] C# minor anyone? and why not?

grafiti is vandalism

My #1 tip would be SLOW DOWN.... now I've never heard you play but I guarantee that inexperience and nerves will result in either you or the drummer getting into a 'race' to the end of the set....LOL Take it steady IT IS NOT A RACE!

Never really thought about it and sitting here I couldn't tell you.... <off to youtube to watch me in some videos to see what I do with my plucking hand....>

[quote name='iconic' post='751745' date='Feb 20 2010, 01:11 PM']I have Ernine Ball Group III flatties on RBX-374 and simply adore them...[i]they feel like silk on the fingers[/i] and boy do they make that bass growl...[/quote] I just put some Ernie Ball group III flatwounds 100/85/65/45 on my 83 JV P and I can safely say they are the best sounding and playing string I have ever used.... I LOVE THEM

[quote name='StevieC' post='758380' date='Feb 26 2010, 04:56 PM']Excuse the rant but what's with bands who turn up [b]without[/b] their own bass amps, guitar amps and drum kits???[/quote] We always turn up without any backline. Normally we've requested the promotor to supply a long list of specifics..... Easyjet's excess baggage charges prohibit taking backline with us.

Hi I am in Watford I play bass in Sad Lovers & Giants ( have been likened to Joy Division at times ). I have facilities to create backing tracks (Sonar 7 producer and various bits of kit ) Which songs do you need backing tracks to and is it just the keyboard parts? I [i]might[/i] be able to assist.....but will be pushed for time tbh

ASIO is merely the type of driver that is used in your soundcard. If you are experiencing dropouts the best way to avoid these is to increase the size of your I/O buffer. IN ASIO mode this must be done in the ASIO control panel for your soundcard not from within Sonar. Obviously latency may suffer as the buffer gets bigger. AT 44100kHz and 16bit a buffer I generally use a buffer size of 1024 without too much latency resulting.

I went in my loft and although I didn't find any vintage Fenders I did find: [list]A crappy old kay p-bass which I thought I'd taken down the tip 2 full seasons of Leeds United programs from 1974-5 and 1975-6 - strange as I support Sunderland and have never been anywhere near Elland Road ??? [/list]

Happens to me always when I remember I had one of those and I sold it![/quote] Not as frustrating as actually having lost one.....I might still have it i just don't know where!!

[quote name='lowdown' post='482040' date='May 7 2009, 02:48 PM']Hey Twigman Do you hang around the Sonar Forum Much? Garry[/quote] I used to a lot. I'm known as Twigman over there too.

[quote name='sk8' post='481990' date='May 7 2009, 02:05 PM']BBE Opto Stomp[/quote] I bought one of these a few eeeks ago and can say it was £55 very well spent. Lovely - it pulls up my troughs and squashes my peaks subtly and cleanly - exactly like a decent compressor should.

To my mind the reliced basses do not show 'natural' signs of wear though - they just look like they've been bashed about or attacked with brillo pads or the like.... My JV bass is aging nicely - it's an 83 and is showing signs of wear but not in the places a modern reliced bass is 'worn'. If it's to replicate the look of truly aged vintage basses then surely they'd be damaging the finish in the appropriate places?
