MEH. Played OK but sound was it's usual. Bit pissed off as we sound checked and it sounded good. Comment was made by vox that the previous gig had got painfully loud towards the end and to keep levels down. Started the gig and slowly but surely the PA came up in level - not the feckin backline but the PA (IMO). Had a bit of a moan with the drummer in the break. It's not the backline but PA that seems to go through the roof each time though blame gets cast back on us. I don't touch levels all night, just dig in a bit harder as the night progresses, but the comp/limiter should be holding that pretty much in check. Something has got to change. I fear a fractious meeting in the offing.

D'you know this is another song I should probably have listened to when we were doing it, but just did my own thing

Look [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/190868-the-bass-doc/page__fromsearch__1"]HERE[/url] He had a workshop disaster for a couple of months and is presently without a computer apparently

Perhaps a blind person bought it direct from his website.

Have on occasion been through that. I have some old cassettes of gigs from years ago (cassettes will tell you how many) and am stil surprised by what I managed on occasion Stuck my Roland R-05 behind the bar Saturday - or rather asked a mate who helps roadying to do it having explained how to turn it on. set pause record and start record. Got home after a particularly enjoyable & 95% tight as a ducks #### cpuple of sets looking orward to hearing the new songs in the set in particular, and found Nothing Looks like record was not pressed

More evidence of the horror & butchery [url="https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/103790762953751177073/albums/5809487362827813873"]HERE[/url] I am afraid I REALLY cannot see what anyone sees in this sort of BS [quote]Q: Hi - how much does it weigh? Was it relic'd at the factory, or is that something you've done? A: Weight is 4.25KG And yes i relic'd it, I relic guitars for a living, so its a very professional job.[/quote] - for which read "I totally f#ck up guitars for knobs like you so you don't have to. Yours an even bigger one"

Ha. Messing with stuff. Mine might be a bit "[i]modern[/i]" for which in my fathers words read [i]tuneless[/i]

I made a bit of a rod for my back saying that as I have just got Miroslav this month would be orchestral didn't I!? Got a few ideas but I suspect my techical / scoring capabilities will leave a great deal to be desired.

Friday. A dep & really loud. It went OK and I managed to remember the words to All Right Now, so my first "lead" vocal Saturday. With my main band at a favourite gig. Long nigt and I obviously have not been practising enough as I developed a blister. Bar one potential wreck e managed to plough through it went really well. A couple of new songs and a couple of reworked ones. One of those night when everything you go for works, Drummer & I were sharing the one brain and totally locked (damn well ought to be after all these years but some nights are even more so) Only downsides;[list] [*]my replaced wrist is really aching this morning, [*]I took the Squier P but it has different straplocks to my other basses and though I put out the strap for it when I juggled basses to the twin bag I somehow managed not to pick it up so that had to stay in the bag all night [*]the video battery went flat after 20 mins (it had been showing FULL) and the digital recorder did not get switched on [/list] Otherwise, we rocked and, though I rather immodestly say it myself, when we're good we are bloody good

[quote name='skidder652003' timestamp='1354373375' post='1885316'] hmmm seller only has a feedback of 98%, could be a bit dodgy if you ask me... [/quote]I presume your tongue is firmly in your cheek? It's GAK in Brighton

[quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1354358451' post='1885102'] ...I told him I'm too old ...(soon to be 50). [/quote]WTF are you talking about!!? Or is it the "fed up" bit I deleted for effect?

Started on guitar in the school band. Actually properly ended up on bass after finally plucking up the courage to ring an advert for a guitarist to be told that the older guy whose band it was, and who had decided that he was too old at 30 and that he would retire, had realised the error of his ways, but they could actually do with a bass player and could I do that. This was for a country/WMC band and I was a callow youth of 17, as were the rest of the band (except the leader). Never looked back, and still play with the drummer. We're getting pretty tight after 30+ years

LOUD ... but I remembered the words. Fairly regular dep & the guitarist is a tad deaf so cranks his amp and theough the first set I was struggling to hear me. Second set was better. Different drummer who I've known for years but never played with . It's been a while since I depped with this lot & he has only a couple of times before but is very good so we blagge most of it with nods. Onwards to tonights marathon

Come on then. It's 1 Dec. Where's this months picture then!!? Congrats Skol

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1354302689' post='1884698'] I got that too, the instruments sounds rather lovely. I can't wait to try them out. [/quote]We'll have to share usernames there cos epoints mean more sounds

Sadly it ooks like that ship has now sailed now. It's back at $149.99 at eSoundz again

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1354284872' post='1884450'] Where did you get the bargain on Miroslav software, Walman? I have looked at that before. I currently use a really old version of Edirol (I think? It was written before Bach died) and it is ok but I know the Miroslav stuff is better. I am also thinking of working on full orhestral composing in future but it is hard, not only because of the complexity of the arranging but because getting the software to work is a nightmare. [/quote]Esoundz had it on Black Friday Special for just under $50 plus an extra Sampletank library. Compared to $150 seemed a pretty good deal having had the cut down version for a while. I think IK Multimedia had the same deal running (it is theirs after all) excluding the Sampletank library. 4200 sounds including coughs & scraps for complete authenticity Esoundz.com tend to offer some pretty good extras on these deals.

Blimey there's been a run on voting this morning!!

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1354280204' post='1884361'] It's a fantastic turnout this time - especially considering the problems with the poll earlier in the week. I hope there will continue to be this much interest in future competitions when there isn't as much at stake. [/quote]Well quite! Having just acquired Miroslav Philharmonk in a sale I have told myself that next month will be orchestral...now watch me roll back on that when I realise it's too hard Right then, back to flipping coins for a final decision

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1354231913' post='1884050'] Coin toss... [/quote]More like a dice Si. Possibly multiple eeny meeny miny mo

Oh FFS!! I don't know I can't get the final whittling done
