Also only just seen the colour thing. I really like the purple, but really, I don't mind what colour I get, whatever is to hand when you build 'mine' Cheers Si

Found this interesting article and thought some people might also find it interesting https://bulletproofmusician.com/why-is-it-so-important-to-record-yourself/ Si

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1507493728' post='3385897'] I suppose it depends on your nature. I'm particular about all aspects of the look of my basses as well as the tone. [/quote] So what if you found the perfect silk colour but they sounded crap, and the perfect sounding string were the worst coloured silk?! Si

Something with a Thunderbolt and USB-C connection will ensure that she fairly well future-proofed for connection with an Interface (which she'll absolutely need). But as mentioned, something fairly modern so she can keep up with Mac OS updates, but yeah, plenty of RAM, no less than 8gb. A larger screen will also help with mixing etc. Si

Wish I could make the premier, but am gigging! Good luck with it all Nick, can't wait to see the full film! Si

Hi all, With my Focusrite hat thoroughly in place (for sake of transparency), I thought I'd post a series of in-depth articles that we have published relating to considerations when choosing a recording interface. These articles are non-partisan, we're not trying to sell you anything, but full of useful information about what to look out for when considering a new interface. You may even find a cheeky photo of me hidden in there. The article topics cover: - Connection Methods (USB, Thunderbolt, Firewire etc) - Drivers & Latency - Analogue Connections - Digital Considerations - Sound Quality & Specs - Physical Features Each article is also available as an audio file, you'll find the full playlist on the homepage below, and each individual read-through on the relevant article.

[quote name='GisserD' timestamp='1507237769' post='3384227'] Hi. Question about your fx order.... do you ever run your bef filter into your oc2 octaver? [/quote] I typically have no use to with this band, but I have done. How come? Si

[quote name='Johnny Wishbone' timestamp='1507192755' post='3383773'] We both know that's a lie! [/quote] Haha, well.....never say never......but I'd genuinely struggle to improve on any of this I think! So unless I change the format/layout etc, I think this is as good as it gets for this size of board. Don't get me wrong, I have other boards for different things that get changed a lot.....but this has been basically constant for at least a year, the only recent change was to put the Sub'n'Up on in place of the Mooer Tender Octaver. Si

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1507192424' post='3383769'] Quite possibly the worst-played and most ill-chosen sound clips I've ever encountered. I wouldn't buy a second-hand Westfield based on those clips. [/quote] Really? I think they're perfectly fine for what they are. I've definitely heard a LOT worse! I wouldn't buy any bass off the back of sound clips alone, good or bad. Si

This is where I'm at: [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/2s9614n.jpg[/IMG] Fully refined now I think Si

I'd much rather enquire as to whether Serek Basses would make a 5 string version of their Sacramento bass: https://www.serekbasses.com/sacramento [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/2q3x7qd.jpg[/IMG] Si

I'm massively impressed with the flexibility of the S'n'U Mini, that said, I'm only using it as an octave up pedal. On the sub knob, I've changed that to increase/decrease upper octave drive, and I still have the clean blend as a clean blend....I may change that as Dood has suggested above as I do tend to run the clean at 100% all the time. As is my broken record response, my absolute go-to low octave will always be the OC-2, there's nothing better to my ears (COG T-xx series comes incredibly close though), so on my 'main' board, I have an OC-2 for one octave down, and the S'n'U Mini for octave up.....this is the best combination for me! On my larger board, I have a T-16 for the extra filter control, and an Earthquaker Devices Organizer for upper octaves (although it does lows too), just because it's a little more characterful with the lag and choir controls. I think essentially I'm not a big fan of digital octave downs (unless they're actively trying to emulate analogue octave downs), but the POG/Mooer/TC standard digital octave down doesn't sound great to me. But the S'n'U Mini has the best octave up I've heard next to the Line6 M series (which are big pedals obviously), and I came from a POG/Mooer Tender. Si

[quote name='Graham' timestamp='1506881296' post='3381759'] I vaguely remember reading that Jon Shuker had built a couple of 5 string Ric copies, don't know if anyone knows about that? Or if I made it up in my head. [/quote] They were 6ers actually, can be seen here: http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/pwatson.html Si

Sent it to him yet? He'll love it Si

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1506670835' post='3380244'] I was undecided about the nut. Still am. Also changed my mind and will opt for the standard bridge and Delano pickup. I'll keep looking at the pic while I am away! [/quote] I didn't like their standard bridge, it's solid enough, but adjusting intonation is overly fiddly and a bit annoying. I would pay the extra and have a hipshot if you don't go with the mono-rail. Si
