  1. 'Ow do. Don't play through t'bingo.
  2. In their defence I had a couple of packs of DR strings (7 years ago) and loved them, just couldn't afford to keep buying them.
  3. wow! My YOB bass. Would you take a kidney and/or a lung? FSH, recently serviced and kept in a no smoking house?
  4. nobody else want to share?
  5. Dunno about this - using an iPhone to control the mix is like using a cat to butter toast.
  6. I'm 'relic'ing my basses but it's taking ages; I've built them and now I'm gigging like a bastard!
  7. Is it any good for metal?
  8. Reinstalled MBox 2 drivers and all is as it should be. Thanks for the replies though guys. As you were.
  9. Since I installed the 10.3.4 update I've only got one of my audio inputs working. Anybody else got this?
  10. Bloody Fromage Fais, letting the cat out of the bag again! Now everyone's going to be carrying one and levelling the playing field again. There goes our advantage . Ah well, I suppose it'll be back to Onanism for us all.
  11. Is this a left handed amp, and is it any good for metal?
  12. I've played through 3 Ashdowns in my life - admittedly they were at the bottom of the range, but I wasn't impressed at all with either the sound or the build quality. Like most manufacturers, Ashdown will have their fair share of duffers slipping through the net; just look at Ampeg's nose dive during the past few years. Doesn't mean that every Ashdown amp bad, just 100% of the ones I've tried.
  13. [quote name='ozzy138' timestamp='1367635721' post='2067848'] They are to make custom length patch cables to run between your effects pedals .. [/quote] and it's really good quality cable too. I once used a spectral analiser in pro tools to see if it wasn't just 'snake oil'. It's not; there was an obvious increase in the upper mids ( actually less loss of upper mids) through GL cable.
  14. DHA VT1 EQ is the heart of mine. Also I didn't realise how much I used my octaver until I took it off the board.
  15. It cost less than the cost of an OC2 on ebay, that's for sure. I used an old 120 x 95 aluminium case, sockets and 3PDT switch that I had in my shed, so that saved me somewhere between £16 and £20. The actual components would have probably run to about £20, but again, I already had most of the stuff. The SK30 diodes, and the LM324, 4027 chips etc were probably about 50p each. I'm sure if I totalled it up it would run to maybe £40ish, but that would include 3 lots of p&p as I couldn't buy all of the parts from the one shop unfortunately.
  16. [quote name='Earbrass' timestamp='1367582819' post='2067194'] That's a bit like saying "That Einstein bloke was a bit clever, an all, but could he install a gas cooker? Could he f***." [/quote] He couldn't though could he? He's not CORGI registered!
  17. Depends what the OD is doing - if it's boosting midrange frequencies then the P bass is doing that simply by being a P bass. Jazz basses have a natural dip in mid frequencies, so that might explain why this happens. I reckon the only way to go is Fretmeister's approach: 1 bass per pedal!
  18. Anybody else qualified for the free Toontrack software (EZ Mix Lite and EZ Drummer Lite) but can't open their website to download them?
  19. I'm sickened to be in the same country as that. It's a real monster and no mistake!
