Whats everyone take on playing to a click track? At our last studio visit the engineer rather wished he had played to a click to make his life a little easier when overdubbing vocals ( I think thats what he said but I could be mistaken) We are due in next week and our guitarist doesn't want to do click as he says it'll take too long. We intend to only record one song for the day, like last time. we have recorded a whole album over 2 weekdns which we weren't particularly happy with as it sounds a bit rushed and under produced.

Headlining? travelling? Supplying own PA? I.d be asking a grand.

when the speaker stand from your PA falls on someones head then yes you will need it.

Lol, we did a gig like that last year. A social club with about 10 disinterested punters. At least you finished your sets, we got asked to pack up after the first set so they could put the jukebox on! Soul destroying...

not sure how the signal would be picked up from the bass to your DAW without a preamp?

So we are thinking of doing another run of 100 T shirts as we sold out the last lot. Colour design, complicated, I like the look of them, we are lucky that a pal is a graphic designer. So who uses who for their band Merch? Looking for the best bang for buck if possible, all suggestions most welcome, Thanks!

anyone tried one of these? https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_tb_70_sbk_deluxe_series.htm

These have probably saved my hearing...£60 quid used them tonight and they were fab. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BY6MH97W?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

I've got a VT2-EQ thingy. Its a beast of a pedal with 2 x 12ax7 valves. I loved using it but it was a bit noisy and the power socket is a bit loose so until I get it repaired it's out of use. Dave made some great pedals, very sad he passed away.

Think I may have finally found a permenant set up (or at least for a good while) No rig, all into the deski via pedalboard (Laney Digbeth and zoom B1 four) and then back from the desk into a KT platform and IEM's custom Jazz with sadowsky pickups and D'addario heavy guage flats seems to complete the picture.

Insure4music £57 thanks guys.

Our ampband PLI renewal has come around again and gone up from £55 to £77. Not too enthusiastic about that. Any other companies offering similar for less? ps I’m not interested in joining the MU as it’s for the whole band and it’s pub gigs thanks

we have used it for years. Got lots of gigs from it, even now. 1 gig from it pays for 7 or 8 years of membership. Miss the community forum but I think it got a bit ugly in the end and had to be moderated too much. TBH it also works as a diary for the upcoming gigs as much as anything and as a resource for who is playing where and nicking some slots its great!

another Lekato user here, so far, 3 gigs in its been great and saved my hearing,,

I fancy another set of elixir nanowebs but man they are pricey! Does anyone use another slightly less expensive set of coated strings they could recommend? Looking for zing and longevtivity. cheers!

very Beck, I like it!

Recorded on zoom livetrack L20 and mixed on Harrison Mixbus. Video edited in Reaper. Uploaded to our band FB page. https://www.facebook.com/jeffersonarchive/videos/864486048212218

not cheap but amazing, lucky for me my drummer actually bought one for me (he's doing really well in his new business) worth a look? https://www.porteranddavies.co.uk/products/kt-platform/

I promise Im not on commish for these but ive gigged them twice now as I was concerned about how my hearing was being affected my being right beside the drummers crash and snare and they have been fantastic, Everything is super clear and at a quiet level. For your singer I would deffo recommend, cheap too. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BY6MH97W?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

A bit of old school Zep from last week immigrant song.mp4

I've got the LY-Rock, stacked Cali Rip off. Really heavy, chunky pedal, good quality knobs, cost about 70 quid, took an age to arrive. I really liked it but it seems to have developed a bit of noise so it's now stuck in the cupboard. I may return it to the pedalboard at a later date!

ha ha every time I search for this band on basschat I get redirected to a blank page saying 403 forbidden? Im guessing its a dodgy spam filter or something? Anyway great band, just woindered what gear the bass player was using.
