  1. Hey guys - looking for some advise for this... I want to use my ipad mini retina for live stuff. Ideally replacing my entire board possibly... Problem is that my band use backing tracks for prerecorded synth tracks. Normally we use this splitter thingy into the 3.5mm which takes click and synth tracks. So using the basic music app works for that - however I want to use the ipad too for my stuff. Can you run apps together nowadays? And to make matters EVEN harder, we have one song with a midi controlled whammy. Is there any method yet we could use the ipad to do this? Can do the guitar/synth stuff on a laptop but we really want to get away from using it. possibly asking for a miracle haha. If it could do the whammy and backing tracks that might be enough.
  2. I don't even know what this thread is about but I don't have a fender... Gawd - basschat, miss a day, miss alot!

  4. [attachment=161456:Davie_Wood_Pedalboard.jpg] New boards Just waiting on some daisy chains to power the thing! Possibly replacing the Trem and OC3 with a COG version
  5. I'll get these photos the right way around too.... EDIT:- Um...They're the right way on my laptop. WHAT?! any ideas?
  6. This arrived today! [attachment=161099:IMG_2109.JPG] [attachment=161100:IMG_2110.JPG] Wrapped with this... [attachment=161101:IMG_2108.JPG]
  7. Sounds good man. PS checks the guns
  8. [quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1398033230' post='2429791'] my pedal is finally on its way to me! finally got paid so was able to pay the final payment! cant wait to get it in on to my board [url="http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/red-five.php"]http://www.cogeffect...uk/red-five.php[/url] andy [/quote] I saw this on fb. Looks excellent. My Grey Fuzz?! has been shipped. PS if anyone is wondering where the ?! comes from:- It's what snake says the first time he see's grey fox in Metal Gear Solid. There - casual nerd moment for the day complete!
  9. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1398163835' post='2431000'] I have got to 50 without ever saying the offending word out loud so I guess I'll cope. I also made sure my bass was made of Mahogany, American Walnut and Ebony before I bought it, just to avoid this particular issue. [/quote] Won't lie - this was part of the reason I went Ash and Maple! I can actually pronounce them! Unless someone will now say its Ahh (with a silent S) and Map-lay instead!
  10. Grey fuzz?! Nearly done... Custom insane tremelo planned. Excited!
  11. Hey guys, Just noticed that Tom's released a new pedal to his stock collection. http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/dual-knightfall.php Looks pretty awesome, I've not tried the knightfall yet but it's on my "to buy" list. Notice tons of folk seem to be buying two of them so guess this new model will keep those folks chuffed! Here's what Tom says:- [size=1][size=1]When you've got a pedal that does more than one thing really well, it'd be a shame not to have more than one of them on your board, wouldn't it? Well, now you can have two Knightfalls that take up a single space on your pedalboard. Excellent. [/size][/size] [size=1][size=1]The list of possiblities is pretty broad: Set one for warm cleanish tones and the other for your higher gain needs; set one as your OD and use the second to boost your signal either before or after your OD sound; have both set up as OD's and stack them. The list goes on. [/size][/size] [size=1][size=1]The control set sees the Bass switch moved inside the box for a broader range of options, and a 3-position diode selection switch added also. MOSFET clipping is selected as standard, with Silicon and LED also included. Custom diode selection is available, just get in touch![/size][/size] [size=1][size=1]Each [url="http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/knightfall.php"]Knightfall[/url] has its own internal Range trimpot, which sets the maximum and minimum levels of distortion available from the Gain knobs. Higher settings on the Range trimpots will limit the difference between different diode selection. [/size][/size] [size=1][size=1]Just the job for guitar and bass, and probably keyboards or kazoo too if you're feeling frisky. [/size][/size] [size=1][size=1][size=1]True bypass switching for both [url="http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/knightfall.php"]Knightfalls[/url] is handled by relay, allowing the use of a new switch with a nicer action than our older 3PDT switches. More "click" than "clunk", and your audio signal will not touch the footswitch at any point. All jacks are north-mounted to provide a footprint only slightly wider than a standard [url="http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/knightfall.php"]Knightfall[/url] once the jacks are inserted.[/size][/size][/size] [size=1][size="2"][b]* Gain, Range, Bass, and Diode Selection interact to provide a huge range of overdrive and distortion sounds for both guitar and bass[/b][/size][/size] [size=1][size="2"][b]* 2.1mm Boss-style 9v DC input (power supply not included)[/b][/size][/size] [size=1][size="2"][b]* North-mounted jacks to reduce pedalboard footprint[/b][/size][/size] [size=1][size="2"][b][size="2"][b]* Relay True Bypass Switching[/b][/size][/b][/size][/size] [size=1][size="2"][b][size="2"][b]* Die-cast Aluminium box[/b][/size][/b][/size][/size] WANT!
  12. I'm discussing a really insane idea as we speak
  13. I'll see if I can test the two out. My guitarist has the V.
  14. You should go FNM, soundgarden and soulfly were enough for me! Join me for a pint
  15. [quote name='6v6' timestamp='1396431056' post='2413391'] Bit harsh but I tend to agree. Sounds like the communication could have been handled better, but plenty of people (myself included) play in more than one band without issues. I don't really get the "loyal to just one band" thing at all, provided you have the time to play with different bands and be sufficiently committed, mix it up and play with them IMO, it's all good experience. I agree you should take your time and see how things work out rather than just quitting. [/quote] +1 I don't fully understand - you're in a 3 piece, which does covers? But your guitarist and drummer are forming/reforming a band from years gone by, playing originals? As someone else said above, if you've been together for 4 years and are still enjoying gigging - then why leave? Surely thats a case of cutting your nose of despite your face? Having two bands on the go isn't that hard to do. If gigs start being cancelled and what not, then yeah - look again. But I think you're worrying for no reason.
  16. [quote name='thepurpleblob' timestamp='1396355514' post='2412586'] There was a massive discussion - that got very heated - about a year ago that basically asked if it was acceptable to 'flip' basses for profit. Essentially - a bass is worth whatever you want to pay for it. You only get ripped off if you get conned into paying more than it is worth to you. "Worth" is a tricky concept... [/quote] Yeah that was my thought process.
  17. [quote name='cetera' timestamp='1396352712' post='2412529'] A suggestion for all. If you see a rare bass for sale on here - do a google search and see if it was for sale elsewhere recently. You may find, as I did, that someone is selling a bass on here for at least £800 (!!) more than he bought it for just days ago.... I'd hate to see anyone fall into the trap... [/quote] Is the bass worth £800 more?
  18. Tom @ Cog Effects?
  19. I sent a mail to Andertons asking them to confirm... "[size=2]Hi Dave, these have been delayed slightly from the original date expected. We are hoping to see these through around the 10/04 at the latest."[/size]
  20. [quote name='charic' timestamp='1395930700' post='2408097'] It wouldn't let you? It should have allowed you 5 people at a time? How many people are you trying to message?! [/quote] I misread this... Thought there was a massage party that I wasn't invited to!
  21. Andertons still showing as 31st. I'm still wondering if one will appear at my door in the next week. EDIT: But an email I got from them said 31st of May. Confused.
  22. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1395933829' post='2408150'] Thank feck for that. I was just going to buy it! [/quote] Hah I was thinking about it too.
  23. [quote name='ThePapabull' timestamp='1395266730' post='2400568'] Hi Woodyratm, gigs are inevitably loud ( but your point is good one) i can't exercise much control re volume. What does uncouple the cab mean….. I should explain I've only been playing bass for 2 years and am really a tenor/alto sax player at heart. (30 years) . I really enjoy practise and playing but this room is sending me around the BEND!!!! [/quote] Get it off the floor back in the day i used a beer crate thing. You might be getting boomyness from the floor. Also try and get out front if you can. Might be sounding pants next to you but amazing in the crowd. (im on my phone so havent seen your vid)
  24. Are you using PA support? I'd consider turning down gigs dont need to be loud. That or boost mids, point cab at your head and/or uncouple the cab.
  25. I'm really gutted
