ha ha its getting that way!

Hi Phil, I just usually use the one finger "Geddy" approach for any super fast triplet work, the killers is pretty sedate pace wise, Im sure you'll get the hang of it soon enough!

I would imagine going to the PA would be a lot easier and produce a more balanced sound out front.

Mansons in Exeter always have used gear in stock even if its not listed on the website

Classic and cool is actually based up the road from me in Teignmouth but its not a shop, he has awesome stuff in!

Hmmmmm, the so called exploitation of people producing manufactured goods in places like China has seen millions of people lifted from absoloute poverty to what we may perceive here as relative poverty but to them as a burgeoning middle class, its not so simple as he makes it out to be.

just installed Firefox and im in fine, thanks Phil Starr!

Great thanks Charic

Helpful thanks

I'm posting this on my phone as I'm running xp and can't access the site. Anyone else having the same issue?

Dont Ampeg recommend the gain on full with their svt Tube amps to get the full 300 watts? Or did I imagine that? Edit, its actually the other way round, master volume on full, adjust gain to taste!

Not the worst list I've ever seen but The Cure and Oasis, Super Furry Animals, all great bands but top 20 greatest of all time? Pretty subjective (as usual)

yep same here, Im the poor sod who does all the work getting the gigs, its the bass players job, didn't you realise?

You have to play what the punters want to listen to if you want bookings and that tends to be the same old shi*e. The skill is sticking numbers in that are fun and challenging to play that you like and aren't too far off the mainstream as to alienate you from the audience (and landlady!) We've tried the odd bit of Zappa and Yes, it usually went down badly!

[quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1510160017' post='3404382'] just read the Ilfacombe festival has been cancelled [/quote] where did you see that?

Thats a shame, no really, for the fans, but honestly probably needed a bigger headline act or 2

Thats a lot of axe for the money..

just got in from a gig in Paignton, all going well untill 15 minutes from the end when guitarists amp just suddenly dies, completely. No back up plan, gig abandoned 15 minutes still to go, awful and embarassing, punters and landlord very forgiving. If my amp dies (and it has in the past) I simply finish off DI to the PA, no fuss, the show goes on, what is it with guitarists and their "tone"? Not letting that happen again!

where are you? Round these here parts (pardner!) its £200 to 300 per pub gig, thats just about pays beer money after all the usual GAS and petrol and rehersal costs, its not a money maker but its cheaper than staying in and getting bladdered at home every weekend!

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1509450849' post='3398976'] Mines never gone wrong, I've never used the client Wi-Fi function but it's there if you want it. I'd you connect four devices no one else can link to it and they'd need to know what app to download. This is all making problems out of nothing, plug it in, open the app and away you go "if" it ever lost connection and mine hasn't in two years the desk carries on with the existing mix regardless. [/quote] This, it gets placed in front of the bass drum, the drummer has the tablet to hand if anything needs adjusting on the fly, its never lost signal and if it did, well it just stays on its last settings anyway.

just a quick heads up on this, got one last week, £40 delivered, Ive not had time to really use it yet, TBH i'll probably struggle to shoehorn it into our set, however it has a pretty small footprint on my pedalboard, can be easily daisychained with no noise and is silent with my other 5 pedals. It plays well with bass and has a sweet analogue delay, tape delay and a great easy to use tap tempo, so far recommended!

[quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1509348907' post='3398154'] Have a look at the Midas MR18 or MR12 if you dont want bells and whistles.... very similar to the Behringer model (has better pre's) but has a 10 year warranty [/quote] That Midas looks identical to the behringer!!!!

yep probably an xair or something similar, we use one, theyre ok, very very sophisticated and a steep learning curve, we may go back to a desk! anyway heres the bumph.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sck2bDtGb0
