I once dated a Redhead. Lovely.

Is that how you playy (sic) a Ricky then, I reckon I've been doing it all wrong!

It'd look something like this: [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/Rhythm.jpg[/IMG] Playing music back particularly strumming patterns through software never sounds like it's played i real life. Notation is useful as a way to remind yourself of the main accents and pattern of a rhythm guitar part, but it's pretty limited in this respect unless you want to start notating the absolute tiniest detail - that sort of score would be very accurate but virtually unreadable to the vast majority of musicians. You could try using a 'shuffle' groove preset (if your DAW has them) to add a bit more 'life' into it though.

Hi All, I've got one of these: and I'm looking to fix it up because it sounds brilliant. I need some replacement 'Stocko' headers to connect 4 of the channels to the main busses. Anyone know where to get the 'Stocko' ones from? My searches are so far drawing a blank. [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/P4020574.jpg[/IMG] Cheers, Paul

Yeah, £30 for a cast case and a switch isn't too bad though even if I gut it to use for something else.

[quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1333367555' post='1600568'] as al heeley said i'd imagine it has similar innards to the harley benton, beta alvin (?) and glx models. i've got a glx bass limiter and it does the job just fine [/quote] Yup, could have bought exactly the same model with a slightly different case with either GLX or Beta Alvin labels on. I got the 'chord' because it had free delivery.

I was browsing the internet last night and came across this: [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/12835098231673png.jpg[/IMG] It's a shade over £30 and arrives tomorrow. Never heard of them before, but for that money it should be alright for a backup. Looks [i]very[/i] close to the Boss ODB3. Report to follow...

I used to play Mandolin - this weekend I came into the lounge to find my two boys standing next to what can only be described as 'Mandolin Segments'. Not good.

It's already been posted, but IMO 'Good Vibrations' is the best pop single ever - sheer brilliance.

Duly noted. Thanks for that ezbass.

Mastering should be about ensuring parity between the volume of each track. Unfortunately these days it's about sucking all of the dynamic variations in the playing and JUST MAKING IT ALL REALLY, REALLY LOUD, BECAUSE THAT"S BETTER INNIT? .

Actually, they both look loads better..... if I close my eyes.

+1 for series 6

Hi all, been doing a lot of gigs lately and am the size of my current rig is starting to get me down. Sansamp BDDI - Ampeg SVP1550 into a Hartke Hydrive 410. Don't get me wrong, it sounds great and have spades of power, but I wish it was smaller and lighter. MUCH smaller and lighter. Does anyone know how a PJB combo would compare to my current behemoth? Specifically looking at the CUB or Briefcase.

[quote name='nick' timestamp='1333138028' post='1598074'] Johnny Marr - The Smiths [/quote] This. Also Alex Lifeson and Andy Summers - that fella from 'the Police'- brilliant rhythm work.

second night of 'we will rock you' at college - lots of energy and better performances from everybody. same again tonight...

Also it can make a difference where you fret the notes. Further up the neck is preferred, as the harmonic content / overtones make it easier for pedals to track them - certainly true of octave pedals, so might be worth a punt with the SYB3. For example, instead of playing 'C' at 3rd fret on the 'A' string try repositioning this note at 8th fret "E" string and see if that makes a difference. Also, have you tried running into the pedal before the amp instead of the FX loop?

On a related topic, I'll be playing at the Ramsbottom Chocolate festival this weekend as part of 'Hungry Bentley' - 1pm Saturday. There's a real ale tent too. Chocolate and Ale and Sunshine and Bass - happy days (except that I don't drink, am trying to cut down on chocolate and the weather isn't guaranteed - good to be playing the bass though! ).
