That's exactly how I run mine - just 'tickles the peaks' off.

Any videos of this knocking about yet?

Based purely on the specs I'd plump for the Roland. Focusrite pre's can be lovely though (not sure about the 2i4 though).

Classic rock covers band have a 'triple whammy' this weekend: Friday 14th Dec - Queen's Hotel, Buxton. Saturday 15th Dec - Coach and Horses, Oldham Sunday 16th Dec - The Talbot, Burnley. [attachment=125107:tumblr_mbsmtwuXKN1r7p4g9o1_1280.jpg]

Do you not? How odd.

Night off. I'll be 'Hitchhiking' with my towel and a very interesting book...

Are we nearly there yet?

Thanks (as always) for these videos. Enjoying your methods very much.

If it's mounted on a printed circuit board then I'd recommend (insist is closer) a temperature controlled iron and some desolder braid. I've used desoldering pumps on PCBs before, but what you want to do here is avoid melting the copper tracks on the board. The trick is to get the iron hot enough to melt the solder, but cool enough to leave the PCB undamaged. I've found braid more successful for this. Top tip No1 though is that when you're removing solder from a board apply a little bit more solder to the joint as this helps the other stuff melt easier, and you're less likely to damage the board.

Oh my. GAS attack

We've had a few 'Jazz posts' on here, is it something like that?

Aluminium Teck Picks - nice and edgy.

should have just bought him a choc ice.

Just bought an Artec SE2A from Stu. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Good do!

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1355078908' post='1893793'] It's confusing as you can get the Drumkit from Hell EZX for EZDrummer... [/quote] Yes, but it's also great. I tend to run 2 instances of EZ Drummer in most projects - Vintage Rock for Snare, kick and hats and Drumkit From Hell for all the cymbals and extended range of toms. It takes a bit of work to get the two to sound like one kit but it's worth it. EZ Drummer is brilliant. I've also used BFD but I found the graphical interface to be a real nightmare to use compared to EZ drummer.

[quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1355043387' post='1893177'] I've just been through a mass of distortion pedals, only to realise that it is a fuzz pedal on a lower gain setting, mixed with a clean signal that I'm looking for. There's a "broken glass" quality in the high end (even without a tweeter) that is not to my taste with distortion pedals, [/quote] Ditto. I went through about a dozen last year and ended up going back to a Russian Muff. Replaced the 2nd pair of clipping diodes for a pair of germaniums and finally got 'my sound'. Kind of back where I started... ...it was fun finding out though!
