So I made a VERY rough demo of my board, mostly to get to grips with the Source Audio BEF w/hot-hand. Still figuring out what is possible, but at least this gives you a musical context. http://soundcloud.com/simonpoulton/picture-live-bass-demo Cheers Si

All a bit rough, but you get an idea as to what is possible with the Hot-hand: http://soundcloud.com/simonpoulton/picture-live-bass-demo Si

Here's V.4 of my 'dubstep' board: [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/707/pedalsq.jpg/][IMG]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/3262/pedalsq.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Recent additions are the Source Audio BEF w/ Hot Hand & the Boss tuner, which I'm essentially using as a quick killswitch when I have the Volume on the ME50b in Whammy mode. Audio samples real soon Si

I have to say....and I'm sure its just down to how I listened to the samples.....but every sound was very very similar?! Looks nice though lol Si

I've got two Compacts. I mostly use one, putting my MarkBass through it, probably around 300w or so, I've never wanted for anything more. Plenty plenty loud enough for small & medium gigs, and large gigs I have PA support. When I put 500w through both Compacts...phew it sounds huge! Huge enough to convince Shep to buy his Barefaced Si

Manual?? Where's the fun in that? Si

Shep, the midi in on the Slicer, I'm assuming the tempo can be controlled via laptop into that? Does it then quantise any tapped devisions to sit within the Midi-controlled tempo? Also (Shep isn't allowed to comment), I've ordered a yummy pedal today, now just need to clear space on the pedal board, i'll only be on Board V.4....so still catching Shep up Si

Was gonna start a thread, but searched this one. I'm going to this on 19th....two dates now?!, anyone else going on the Saturday? Si

Keep them in their (hard) cases, micro-climates ftw Si

[quote name='wally8' timestamp='1320943998' post='1433576'] Someone always has to come in a say "the fans always want the same album and thats boring etc". That's cack. Who wants the same album churned out over and over again? No-one. Ghost reveries is completly different to Watershed - totally different drumming style (i.e new drummer), softer songs and completely different guitar solo's (i.e a new guitarist). [/quote] I was talking very broadly, in that the two albums are definitely by the same band you know, there's no vast deviation between the two at all. I'd say drumming and guitar solo styles is quite specific, it doesn't affect song structure or the vocal. Again, I've not heard the new album, but I suspect they just wanted to throw a complete curve ball, grow and evolve their sound as they, as people, have no doubt grown. Bear in mind that they have done the acoustic album as well, so they are prone to more chilled moments. Who knows, maybe the next album will be all screaming Si

Arrogant? Thats the last thing I would have described them as?! I remember reading an interview where they were perfectly happy stating that all their fans were geeky boys playing games workshop (or soimething to that effect), they've always come across as very good humoured to me!?. I've not heard the new album, but its always the case that when a band tries to evolve themselves to keep themselves interested in music, the fans will say "oh we want the same album again". Lets face it, Ghost Reveries and Watershed are pretty similar...although I love both. They were always gonna change it up. Saw them on the GR tour and thought they were stunning live Si

I'll have a stock list too please Although I'll probably pop in on Saturday as I'm back that way, anyone else down on 12/11/11? Si

Yus I should think I'll be going, enjoyed this years! Si

My personal opinion on the Boss ODB3 is that its not great, I really didn't hear any nice low end distorsion/grind, its all mid/high fizz. I've had a much much better time with the Boss Mega Distortion, £30 off ebay, perfect for the amount I use it in my covers band. For my 'proper' gated fuzz sounds in the dubstep band I'm using a CoPilot FX Orbit I'll try and do some vids perhaps Si

Hi Nick, I run my ME-50B from a brick no problem: [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/29596510150320827857091.jpg/"][/url] The Juicy Lucy does put out 12v per output (5 of them), but each pedal steps it down to 9v anyway. Si

Think I'll be popping along, probably even about in the evening for a drink too....but at the least, a coffee Mike Si

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1319545839' post='1415500'] No disrespect meant but if they want keyboards played why don't they employ a keyboard player?? - are they going to get horn players to play a synth that sounds like horns?? They devalue your talents as a bassplayer by asking you to play something else!! [/quote] Couldn't dis-agree more. It's just a sound, if you can't get a bass sound from guitar/effects, you might look to create that low-end from something more programmed. I play some bass-orientated keyboards in my dubstep band, although it's about 80% bass guitar. I don't think of myself as bass guitarist, more that I'm in charge of the low end...however that may come. Si

I think it's crazy you've held on this long tbh. Get a refund and look elsewhere. If you really want a Stingray, go second hand or look at existing shop stock. Simples Si

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1319361280' post='1412957'] Lol. Chris!? Are you my mum!! Lol.[/quote] Well you've been very naughty, obviously. Actually doesn't look as big as I thought it was gonna be haha. Looking forward to seeing it all plugged in Si

Chris can you sort your life out and get a pic up please Si
