  1. Yes, that's really handy - thanks. 29.7fps sounds familiar!
  2. Yes, I used Adobe Premiere Elements for ours. I extracted the audio tracks from the video tracks (band members used iRig or equivalent to record the audio for their video tracks) using Audacity - you can open a video track in Audacity and it grabs the audio. I then aligned the tracks and set the levels and exported to single MP3. In Premiere Elements I again aligned the tracks using the associated audio tracks and also imported the mixed track and aligned that. I then muted the video audio tracks to be left with the mixed audio. The only thing I did apart from altering levels on the tracks was add a bit of reverb to the vocalist's track, and some compression to the drums. It's useful if you get everyone to tap along to a click intro to the song to help with alignment. I also had a weird issue where the guitarist's video was running at a slightly different frame rate from the others (he started in sync, but ended up about 2 seconds out by the end of the track). So I used Premiere Elements to squish his video down very slightly to keep the sync correct throughout the song. Here's the result, FWIW
  3. Can one of you kind people who own one of these do a couple of measurements please? I'd like to know what the string spacing at the nut is like, and also an idea of the string spacing over the neck pickup. I'd go out and try one, but that's not possible at the moment really!!
  4. The guitarist has just lent me one of these pedals. As mentioned above, it works well into a Scarlett - I used it straight into a Scarlett 2i2 to record the bass for a "lockdown" video - sounds pretty good, though I say it myself. If anyone's interested, here are my pedal settings ...and here's the result
  5. For some more £££ than the HB, I think Fender are doing a Squier 51 Classic Vibe bass again now in white blonde...
  6. Liking that darker "seam" down the middle, and a lovely bookmatch!
  7. I've been eyeing up those Chinese necks - good to know they are worth a punt. I'm thinking of doing a more "barncaster" style build, so the bound/block neck might be a bit OTT, but there are some more straightforward necks available too that I may try - still tempting to go block/bound though! Might depend on how the body looks when I get going...
  8. Here's the only thing I've done with yew - we had a tree cut down in our garden, and this slice was too good to waste....
  9. I think Phil described the differences between the 30 and 50l cabs very well in his first post - quoted below with my bold highlighting.
  10. Ahh - interesting. That's OK then!!
  11. The One10 has a floor firing port that is (from the photos) set towards the back of the cab. I did wonder if angling the cab would mess with the performance of the port, but with it near the back it might be OK. However, you will need to be sure that whatever you use doesn't impede airflow for the port.... I would think that anything elevating the cab off the deck to any large degree might cause a loss of performance (though am happy to be corrected!!!)
  12. ...and just to reiterate - Mike is building these for me to repay a favour and has used up his last stock of lightweight ply.... he is not going to build them commercially!
  13. Possibly, though I think Mike usually tolexes them. We'll see what he comes up with!
  14. Yes - particularly with the rebate and tolex tucking under for them to seat into. I know Mike used to use them when he was building cabs without any problems.
  15. No, they are being done in between Mike's "proper" work, so have to take a back seat. Hopefully quite soon, though!
  16. Spondon's borrowed two for his nipples?
  17. If anyone wants to bid on this, that is only 10 miles up the road from me - happy to collect and arrange courier shipping if it helps!
  18. Tolex time! Tolex cut to size Tools required for cab covering Tolex getting glue applied Cab with glue applied and getting covered Sides of cab number 1 done. Test fitting the handle, it fits perfectly and is flush in the rebate
  19. I can't claim credit for that - it is @Cosmicrain (Mike Walsh) who is making them for me as a HUGE favour using the remaining bits of ply he had left as I said earlier in the thread... ...so it's Mike workshop that's the tidy one - mine is still in bits due to too many other (house related) projects needing doing first...
  20. Some more progress on my cabs.... Two cabs now built and ready to have edges sanded and rolled. The bottom cab is going to only have the 12" driver in - though I will fit a horn with a blanking plate over the mouth, so if at some point in the future I want to turn it into a full range cab it can be done without getting the jigsaw out. Decided to "hand" the front baffles. Edges sanded and square Roll over cutter selected and height set Rolling the edges Edges rolled and ready to be covered in Marshall black levant tolex
