[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1414613733' post='2591437'] Always a bridesmaid..... [/quote] At least you get on the top table I only get in because I keep trying to kick the door down

I will need a couple more listens through, brilliant efforts this month gents

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1413490732' post='2578925'] Ask my neighbours. It woke them up and has given them ideas... [/quote] I think I got this the wrong way round, my composition was supposed to reflect the picture rather than generate a load more be still there demons of war , bed time

I wanted to reflect both the power of the machine and the melancholy of the body language. I think I got it. [/quote] great piece , I noticed a couple of ideas that I tried , though yours may have been done a little....... subtler than mine

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1412722834' post='2571486'] How do! Not been about for a while, been busy arranging a wedding then getting married. Here's my entry for this months challenge that I've knocked up. It is a soundscape inspired by ideas and thoughts about Industrial ideas, sci fi, AI, could robots have thoughts souls etc. Anyway here it is [url="https://soundcloud.com/dreaded-ted/artificial-soul"]https://soundcloud.c...artificial-soul[/url] [/quote] it felt like the inside of my skull was being searched , well wacky

[quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1412527506' post='2569603'] I got inspired (arguably!) and with some crazy 'boning by a local jazzist, produced this: [url="https://soundcloud.com/dredd-and-the-badass-weed/the-difference-engine"]https://soundcloud.c...fference-engine[/url] For a change I used both Wal and Sandberg basses with plenty of effects to disguise them! [/quote] that works really well , excellent stuff

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1412361950' post='2568317'] Here you go, then; sorry about the delay (I had to peel the onions for our dinner...) [url="https://soundcloud.com/dad3353/spare-a-copper-for-an-old-steam-tramp"]Spare a Copper for an Old Steam Tramp..? ...[/url] Hope you like it. [/quote] Great fun Douglas, the moaning and groaning put me off a bit though , I made those sort of noises once , it was a long time ago and dark , and the thought of anyone else making them, doesn't seem quite right to me

Is it [b]that[/b] dark ,

Well, I don't think I can do much more with mine now, so I may as well offer it up for your .... er .... enjoyment ed to add you dont get away with it that easy https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/warbot

Fizzy well FS1E to be accurate But that sounds more like a lead guitarists amp TBH

[quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1412753133' post='2571555'] If you look up the active indicative conjugation for the verb [i]ducere[/i] you'll see why I remembered it, and why I'm not going to finish it in a post! Alternatively, ask your brother - I'll bet he remembers it to... However, I might add that mentally I never got past 15. [/quote] and I spent ages the other night looking for something like that , and missed , I knew it wasn't cos of your love of the classics

A post in the technical /repair forum normally brings some clever people to answer the technical stuff , welcome to the forum I am sure you will your answers

Time to write some blues numbers methinks , best of luck , it does seem like a mountain to climb sometimes

Bizarrely, in the depths of my memory I seem to recall a story along those lines , as for latin I have no recall whatsover

[quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1412588000' post='2570088'] I wouldn't dream of slipping in any innuendo. Being brought up as a Catholic meant that large parts of my youth were spent at Catechismm under a priest. We were taught to be upstanding and not smutty! [/quote] Didn't sister Paul work her magic on you

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1412537677' post='2569767'] I'm terrible with names anyone gonna have a stab at putting the right user names to real names left to right?

I thought I would be cheeky and turn up for an hour and pick some brains , however I was absolutely delighted to have stayed all day , it was fantastic to meet you all, the advice was superb and to get to have a quick noodle on all your kit was incredible , it has given me so much more confidence to have a proper play with my own stuff now !! Thanks again, a great day . photos to folllow

I am really hoping to come along to this , I am specifically looking to get a feel of a few of them , I recently traded a fretless for one and being a total noob to the beast , I am looking for some pointers to get started properly . so if there are a few kind soles willing to talk to me that would be great. I just have to sort a vehicle to get there now !!

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1412359584' post='2568289'] Yes, strange isn't it - perhap Yamaha doesn't sell the speaker cabs separately? I've measured the DC resistance as 5.4 ohms so I'm thinking it's an 8 ohm impedance? [/quote] The stagepas comes complete I thought doesnt the amp/mixer fold into the cab box or something like ? The spec you quoted was 150W into[b] 6ohm[/b]s , could that be relevant with regard the speaker resistance?

Cheers Nige ............... I think

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1412292952' post='2567678'] Wodja mean 'I quite like it'..? ..........[/quote] Cheers Doug, you are too kind , as we have a bit if time left ,I may have to do the bagpipe version

Great image , there has to be sometrhing in that one , I have to get stuck in for this , Dads is probably already done

Congratulations to Mr[b] Bilbo[/b] of this parish on a wonderful composition that scoops both the prize and adulation that follows from winning this months challenge , well I say prize , it is in fact the honour of setting the image for next months event .
