Charic , I have now read your spoilers , and thank you for being so polite about mine , different will do just fine

I've voted , I have to say this is as much a competition to the ear as it is to mixing , even learning to listen to the mixes knowing what was on offer is a total education .

Mine is here , I Hope [url="https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/no-second-chance-again"] here [/url] I have taken the # out of the link that mucked it up last time , but soundcloud isn't working for me ATM. but the link appears to be at least looking in the right place

Yep just need to convert some of the thread views into yes pleases and it will be a monster , DON'T BE SHY this could be a great craic , get yourselves signed up and join in , there isn't much to it, just be willing to to play a little part in a national bass experience , possibly international , Roll up , Roll up

[quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1358063278' post='1932415'] Isn't that impossible ? [/quote] Not quite , My wife was arranging a surprise party for me but didn't check my gig diary , so we had a gig on my birthday weekend that we had to do , so I announced that as my birthday bash and loads came , great night . My wife had reaaranged the surprise party for a month later and booked the band which was in the gig diary as a party for a mate of the drummers, I knew nothing until I turned up with the kit , went in through the stage door and the whole place shouted surprise , it was a superb night , so yes I played at both my 50th birthday parties

Warwick 'red strings' 100,80,60,40 ML Unused in the packet , Roundwound Stainless , I have had them quite a while I reckon , but I don't think they have been out of the packet

Jim , I think the BC relay sounded good , your call I reckon , charity /BC sounds good , we could even anounce the event at each gig and put a hat round,though that would be optional .

I am honoured to be a part of this superb project , thanks for having me on board

[quote name='Jimryan' timestamp='1358032982' post='1932260'] Wouldn't necessarily have to follow a list. Say I do the gig, no one local can collect and I go for a day out somewhere, post "I'll be going to so and so, who wants it" kinda thing, but a list as basic guide would probably help. The maps cool, would be good to watch it move around. Even more so if its a really impracticle route. I reckon this could turn out really interesting. [/quote] Keeping it fluid sounds superb, thats a great vision , it would be a great to keep a list of participants , gigs , dates etc as part of the fun and I will do the map if you want me to .

We just do legwork , knocking on doors, talking to people and putting on a half decent performance when we get a gig , after a while the repeat bookings come along and make the work a bit easier , but always knock on new doors and see getting in at new venues half the fun, I think we are of an age though where friends are at notable birthdays and a fair few parties come our way , they all look good on a band CV , I personally had two 50th birthday parties last year , and the band played at both

Just a bit of fun to see how big I can get a map Ok that might work , it would need a list to follow with detail of the participants but there should be enough space to put some numbers/letters to index to the list on a route . I would need to update the picture as and when , and please excuse the iffy example above but it might work as long as the entire BC community doesnt join in, but if they do, it could be done region by region

Possibley best to get as many on board as poss , plan a rough route, then pester the heck out of everyone to fill the gaps, timescales will be a bit interesting depending of the BCers gig calender .

sounds great fun, I'd love to join in with this, I think there are a few BCers around this neck of the woods.

I have a pet cage surplus to requirements if anyone is interested. it is 4ft x 2ft and has a cage over a plastic tray base. For accurrate description have a look[url="http://www.petsathome.com/shop/rabbit-120-guinea-pig-and-dwarf-rabbit-cage-by-ferplast-15982"] here [/url] but in grey collection to suit , but can possibly deliver if very local

[quote name='Horizontalste' timestamp='1357753296' post='1927898'] I'd like to hear that.... [/quote] So would I , but My thinking is waaaaayyy past my ability at the moment , mind you my easier idea is proving very awkward and a right pain in the derrier . I only just realised that to add a vocal I have to monitor the track , that involves ear phones so I had to work out how to recieve a signal via usb yet send it out vis the headphone socket , for some reason, the headphone out on the audio interface did not kill the output , and as I type this I realise I could of just pulled out the output jack when one headsmashing is just not enough

Oh , does that mean mine is a bit quiet , I did notice the others were a bit louder , but I used the K meter, does that affect the effect

I must be getting the bug, because I have understood most of this thread

thanks for hekping with my links gents

[url="https://soundcloud.com/#lurksalot/no-second-chance-again"]https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/no-second-chance-again[/url] I don't know if its any better in real life but it does a bit to me

I have downloaded it and put it as an effect on the master , I don't quite know what it is doing, but it is there .

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1357561828' post='1924420'] I have no problems with people submitting revisions to their mix, or even whole new second mixes if you want. Go for it, but lets say submissions in by Monday 14th, and I'll do the poll thing that evening? [/quote] So after all that , we DO have a second chance , I will have another go if i get the opportunity

A bit late for the mix competetion but a lot of it makes more sense now that I have re-read it after trying to do a mix . great stuff Si ,many thanks
