  1. The version I have looks like that but with fewer options across the top , eq , imager and maximiser , but there are a stack of presets to play with it, will take me a month to work which one I like best for each tune ?
  2. If the imager is like a splatter gun graphic then that comes as a link in the 8 main screen , I don't know how to read that though so it is a bit random to me ?
  3. I'll be honest I don't know how much more control I have but there is a lot more detail on the 8 screen and the presents seem more like a pop up
  4. A great insight Bilbo , and in reflection I can see some similarities , bizzarrely the band I'm in seem to be trying to do more functions , thus party tunes seem to be the thing , not a problem in themselves but they don't seem to be giving the musical attention to the party tunes as they can 'jam' them , this is definitely having a derogatory effect on my playing , this is more to attitudes and motivation I would think , still will work it through and resolve it , recognising it is the first step I guess !
  5. I've succumbed to this one ? I haven't had a chance to play with them properly yet though , a quick blast on this months compo entry does brighten it up somewhat, so I might just upload a new version before the vote goes up ed to add , I thought I was buying ozone 7 elements , but the download was for 8 , the authorisation code was for the 7 but was accepted for the ozone 8 , I don't know if I have won a great upgrade , but it's an extra 1 so all is good ?
  6. Played a small local pub last night , a lovely little pub which has had a bit of money spent on it and it looks nice. The stage area filled at least 30% of the room ! And we played to 19 people and a dog , we brought all bar the dog an enjoyable evening , though it does amaze me that the landlord was in the bar playing pool and having a drink with the 3 others in there while paying for 2 bar staff all evening , I don't get that !
  7. I don't actually perform any of my compositions except for the fewest takes it needs to get it recorded , but I'm the same, at a real push I could 'sing' along to a couple of songs but never perform them without reading the lyrics , but I guess as it is never an option to perform them, I lack the motivation to learn them perfectly
  8. Sold a Zoom B9.1 to Pete , excellent BCer, buy, trade or sell in confidence with this gentleman ?
  9. The Lurks household has an idea for next month , myself and lurksalittle had a brainstorm we need to sort an arrangement and then get stuck in. If it works it will be a lark ?
  10. I'm in and had great fun with this , I learned an absolute shedload of stuff doing this , my midi is getting much better , i can even overdub it now So in deference to Dads deafness I have kept the verses relatively empty as the words are so stupid he might want to hear them better Lurksalittle makes an appearance on this as well , I think she thought I put a bit more effort in to this , it certainly has a more Lurksy feel to it so enjoy if you can ........... wacky, an auto in bed feature ooh er missus
  11. Had a great gig last night , our set is heading a touch more 'party' rock and when the pub is dancing through both sets , it seems to be preesing the right buttons , fun from start to finish
  12. Now THAT's the first Topic on the new site

    Just bought a mixer from Colin Excellent experience , I would have no hesitation of buying from, selling to or trading with Colin
  14. Bloody spellcheckers ! At least it didn't corrupt drummists
  15. I'm sure its a belter Dad, I'll listen when mine is more concrete I have just learnt proper midi manipulation of my EZ drummer 2, so expect some ......... er ..........random drummisting as I try and put all the bits together. the lyrics are writ, and suitable, if not initially obvious as to why, but as is my want, I tend to hit on a couple of words and go all around the houses to try and make them fit
  16. [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1509968550' post='3402886'] Possibly the only band for which average Joe Public can name both the drummer and the bass player. [/quote] Possibly not if they had to pick 2 names from the 4
  17. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1509896095' post='3402385'] I guess you had to be there.😂 Blue [/quote] My point being that you are not 'here' , you are still back 'there'
  18. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1509736506' post='3401346']............ The future? I contend we never have a great grasp of today or the future if we dismiss the past. BTW what's today, Ed Sheeran? If yes, John gets my vote. Blue [/quote] [quote name='blue' timestamp='1509752755' post='3401487'] .......... I can't intelligently comment on Sheeran because I'm not familiar with his work. ...... [/quote] This kind of shows the futility of this sort of discussion On a side note regard influence , Mr Sheeran headlined Glastonbury , on his own , to 80,000 peeps on site and countless millions worldwide (live) , he writes all ( or most) of his own songs , and he's a ginga , now , if that doesn't turn out to be a massive influence on countless numbers of people for their future musical ambition and inspiration I would be astonished. I am not a great fan of Mr Sheeran , though I have seen him, but I saw the Glasto set on TV and was mightily impressed.
  19. Consecutive posts for me on the thread , tonight's gig was the best ! A fund raiser for the village pre school nursery , pub rates of pay , on a proper stage with the best view of the best looking crowd we have ever played to We have made an executive band decision to seek out pre school fundraisers to play at very competitive rates Ed to add the gig was about 500 Metres from home, beer provided and half the ladies recognised me from the decorations I do on the house for the trick or treating they did on Halloween !
  20. My first efforts at recording were though a zoom pedal/interface , my advice is ditch it , use a pucka interface for the interface bit and the zoom for your tone, keep them seperated , it makes it simpler , I like simpler
  21. A gig in my local , and SWMBO was happy to collect me me , so all good except ....... on this basis it is not a good idea to quaff a pint setting up , have another to start the first set and then kill another before the break , when one gets to a certain age , 20 minutes is just not long enough to prepare for 1 1/4 hours of a second set accompanied by 2 more pints , nothing to do with playing ability after a few pints , but massively due to not having the ability to empty the bladder sufficiently in the break . A great gig nevertheless , but I will be on either wine or whiskey for the first set tomorrow night.
  22. 'Cheapest print online' I used for thin A3 posters , I seem to remember they were almost giving them away , since our 'rebranding ' the singer is doing it , they are a bit over the top TBH , they only need to last 2 weeks on a pub wall and then they are for the bin !
  23. Jeez.... a lovely shouty lyric type picture this month AND the bonus of killing a classic next month .........happy days
