I've always wanted to get some David Lee Roth type clothes but have no idea where to get some. My stage clothes in my profile pic are pretty good tho!

[quote name='dadofsix' timestamp='1469629238' post='3099869'] Greetings from across the pond. My main band has just lost our keyboard player because of family matters. This is somewhat of a problem because of the lack of good keyboard players in my area. While I'm the bass player in this band, I've played keys in other bands. I'm not interested in going back to being the keyboard player for this band, though . . . no, I'm a bass player in my heart of hearts. The problem is that we are giving up about 25 good songs that I could be contributing key parts to while the song is being performed. So my question: Can any of you who also play the keys, or use a keyboard player in your shows, recommend a small quality keyboard for use live? I've been trying to find something like a Korg Microstation here but it looks like I won't be getting it without being "gored." I don't want to have to drag around a big keyboard rig, plus the bass rig, just for the sake of having keys in a few songs. I'd be using my hands to play it. I'm NOT Geddy Lee! lol So, any thoughts on a good compact keyboard for this bass player to use onstage for piano or organ fills while I have a bass hanging from around my neck? <><Peace (To the moderators: my apologies if this post is in the wrong section. Please feel free to move it to where it needs to be.) [/quote][quote name='tonyquipment' timestamp='1469630806' post='3099894'] Get the guitarist to do it? Lol [/quote] Our guitarist does just that. he bought a Roland GR55 (i think) and plays in little fills or melodys. Not great for piano type playing but fills a lot in for us without having to have a keyboard player!

Bugger, I thought it was back on. I reckon Dark Heart must have realised he was wrong! Which is a shame as i wanted him to be right then i would have bought the pedal!

I find the thought of you all standing up whilst practising really odd for some reason.

Never found it a problem but at home i sit, at rehearsals I stand. At gigs I stand unless it's a musical theatre gig in which i sit!

[quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1469116065' post='3095907'] Recently we had a TNT140 in our local paper. By chance I bumped into the bloke who bought it who said he'd paid £80 for it. Are they any good? [/quote] Yes, and after carrying one around for a bit it makes you favourite to win The Worlds strongest man competition!

Surely the only option for a 90's bass combo isn't on there! The Peavey TNT 150!

I've got a great idea. It's a bit out there but..... Why not just learn to play guitar properly!

Not gonna have much luck http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xboss+ls2.TRS0&_nkw=boss+ls2&_sacat=0

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1468999766' post='3094901'] They're all on eBay looking for a cheap LS-2! [/quote] Ha ha, that's what I'm gonna have to do!

One of them must of realised they are wrong, so are staying silent.

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1468959552' post='3094740'] So, Here's the way to do it using a proper LS-2 from Boss. Plug bass A in to RETURN A Plug Bass B in to RETURN B Set the MODE switch to A<>B Plug Your amp in to the pedal OUTPUT. You will need a dummy connector in the INPUT to power the pedal up but this will NOT affect the tone. If the GREEN LED is lit, input A is live and the GREEN knob sets it's level. Input B is muted. If the RED LED is lit, input B is live and the RED knob sets it's level. Input A is muted. You're all very welcome [/quote] (affects whiny voice) But I wanna know about the behringer pedal!

I like adam clayton. Does his job perfectly for that band.

Is it over then? Who won?

[quote name='thebrig' timestamp='1468917601' post='3094226'] I will probably end up changing along with the key if thats what they want, anything to keep the guitarists happy. [/quote] Don't! Educate them!

[quote name='thebrig' timestamp='1468880836' post='3094078'] We don't play this unless the audience demand it, but when we do, I always use it as an opportunity to order another drink during the verse, or make any adjustments that might need doing. [/quote]A band i was in used to play Stairway. I used to go to the bar for a drink cos the bass doesn't come in for a couple of minutes!

I'd be surprised if anyone has bothered to publish a bass book with it in as it is so simple. just tell your bandmates to listen to it properly!

Just listened to it (well the first couple of mins). It stays on that same riff in E. As guitarist there ears are probably tuned to the root moving up a fourth as in twelve bar, just stick to your guns and don't move up to A!

Come on! Camden Rob and I demand satisfaction!

I'm enjoying it tho. I'm looking forward to the final outcome to decide if i'm buying one or not!

This one, not cheap tho! http://www.thomann.de/gb/morley_aby_mix_2.htm

[quote name='timmo' timestamp='1468687523' post='3092701'] Not knowing anything about DAT, why did you choose to use it instead of VHS. I assume from what I have read, it is video. Was it a much better quality, and was it rare to use? No reason for asking, other than I have never heard of it, and obviously, as it is tape, I will never have cause to use it. [/quote] Digital Audio Tape. It was like CD quality on tape. You would tend to mix down to them in studios so you could take good quality mixes home with you. Or even bounce tracks to them and then take em back to one or two and keep layering tracks etc. You could skip tracks v quickly. This will explain it more clearly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Audio_Tape

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1468673753' post='3092548'] Either 10CC or The Osmonds? [/quote]

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1468672556' post='3092540'] Horses for courses. . [/quote] Who's that by?

[quote name='leftybassman392' timestamp='1468671025' post='3092530'] Top man! Much appreciated. I did put a bit more info in the previous post - long story short it may not actually be needed but I'm just making sure I have a way of getting it done if I need to. Thanks muchly for the offer: I'll get back to you if I need to take it up. [/quote]No problem
