Many thanks for that , I’ve seen stuff that shows it, but it seems like I am missing a right chunk of knowing anything about it The piano has no wheels , as it were, so I am stuck I guess !

May be I’m missing something ? either way a cable has to come back from the pedal board to an amp? Get a longer lead to go an extra bit around the front of the pedal board , or go wireless

I have a keyboard that I have connected to the PC which sends the midi via usb , I remember a faff setting it up , but it works , the only bit that it doesn’t do is pitch bend/modulation stuff and I would like to play with this as a thing. now I could go out and buy a controller and am very close to doing so , but do I really need another bit of kit in my room? I’m not sure I do , so a bit of searching finds a little iPhone app that seems to do the job , 99pence , that’s got to be worth a punt , but here we go again and it’s a proper ball ache. i have searched and read so much crap my head is nearly done in and I am sure there is a really simple first step to take but the crux is , how the f**k do I get midi from the phone to the computer , once the connection is good , I can tell reaper to use it , but getting actual midi signal to the PC is the first hurdle many thanks all

I have heard a pipe banned , and I don’t think it will change any time soon

Woah , calm down tiger .......... I had to sit down when I read that heretical gem . ba***pes are not a joking matter

Try writing and recording , it’s also a bit frustrating sometimes but you’ll be amazed at satisfying it can be when you nail a half decent one. it keeps those musical fingers active as well

I did only 3 last year , all deps for the guy who replaced the guy who replaced me in the band . 3 wedding gigs over 2 weekends in August , and honestly , if I had realised what they had sold them for , I probably wouldn’t have done them! I like the lads mind and I wouldn’t want them embarrassed and sold up crapcreek

For those who have had any interest piqued , the January challenge can be found here

I loved gigging , but I also love doing lots of other things , having had my diary prioritised by the band commitments , I had missed out on loads of family and friends occasions that I really wanted to do. A couple of well timed aggravations in the band setting was just enough for me to realise that my priorities now lie outside the band .

Nah I left the band and can now do whatever the f**k I want to on a Saturday

Bizarrely, if I was gigging on a Saturday it felt like my prep was all afternoon, I couldn’t get around the fact I had to be thinking about getting prepped ! Friday gigs were far better , I worked all day, went home and then had half an hour to get my shizz together , it felt I hadn’t wasted half a day thinking about it

Well done all , a great turnout, and some splendiferous performances, I think it’s @Dad3353 turn to pick a photo if he would like to, as he took the honours back in November

My thoughts exactly

do you have any other instruments to try with it ? Can you hear the bass while monitoring it with headphones either through the DAW or direct from the onyx?

+1

love it

I was waiting for someone else to see the obvious but refuse to quit , it’s your gig , let the guitarist walk , give it a couple of weeks , then quit , ticks most boxes

It’s like the general economy in micro , while people have confidence in the value of these things, the value will hold up , but if the value in a guitar is that it was a present from grandad, mum and dad or wife for instance , or it was one that has particular band or gig memories. then keeping it on a stand in the corner of the room is value enough. Nail it to a wall as a decoration or as a cherished memory, fine by me, I think an emotional attachment to an instrument is easily as important as its monetary value

Or 5 voted for 2 , or 2 voted for 3 and 2 for 2 or .,....... That happens , it always has , I don’t think we need to make it an offence mind I guess if someone finds an entry particularly worthy of a single vote to show their view of its quality then so be it. or maybe they just don’t RTFM ed to add it is not regarded as good etiquette to vote for your own entry ladies and gents

Seasons greetings and festive felicitations to one and all .

do you set your kit up the wrong way round

Ah well I suppose I had best throw my hat into the ring now as I wont get any time to polish this one, or even roll it it glitter. I was hoping to get a choral type vocal from Lurksalittle to set it up properly , but thats not going to happen any time soon, she is not up for putting any effort in please note the cute picture to generate some interest

Congratulations dude though It must be costing you a fortune changing your style of hat so often

Just a quick reminder that December’s composition challenge is on and that if you or your band have a recording done this year of a song you have covered, you can enter it here , rules etc are in the thread

Sounds very promising buddy , best wishes
