  1. I really like that dude, bit sad it ended so soon. Bass seems a bit (just a tad) too loud in the mix on these monitors but loving the tune... more please!
  2. I have to be honest, I've not done a great deal of reading on the mixer I linked, it just looked like a quality bit of kit
  3. Well I spoke about this a while back, a monthly composition competition. A picture will be posted by the previous months winner to act as inspiration for that months piece. The piece should be no more than 5 minutes long and should be composed and recorded in the same month as the piece in question. To be clear, any instruments / sounds can be used although copyright should be followed for obvious reasons. Also Basschat T&C's should be followed within the actual recording so : [i]6.

Voting will be carried out through poll... So without further ado, the first picture (I searched September ) All entries to be in by the 23rd September (one week of voting to follow) Happy composing!
  4. [quote name='cheezus' timestamp='1345137494' post='1774190'] The new 1x18" just arrived. The sound is HUGE! Love those cabs. [/quote] Ooooh me likey with the metal grills!
  5. I was about to say do you really need 96kHz it's a nice to have The Korg D888 is a quality bit of kit (I've had mine for years, just not much call for it lately, although that may change shortly!). They're discontinued but I'm sure they'll turn up on the bay now and again, it was just over £500 new so should be within your budget. This looks pretty nifty [url="http://www.dv247.com/studio-equipment/zoom-r24-digital-recorder-sampler-usb-interface-and-daw-controller--74227"]http://www.dv247.com/studio-equipment/zoom-r24-digital-recorder-sampler-usb-interface-and-daw-controller--74227[/url]
  6. Malmsteen gets some stick but for me this the THE definitive version... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaycOK66FAc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaycOK66FAc[/url]
  7. Yeah David Ellefson I'll get a pic of the pick up sometime soon (still need to get it framed up to go along with my other stuff though
  8. God... the list of people that have helped me through Basschat would just be immense. So thanks to all of you Although Clarky sending me a pick from my favourite bassist is strongly stuck at the forefront of my mind every time I see it so a special thanks to you dude
  9. Liking some of those quirkier designs very cool.
  10. Get a person in the picture so we can judge the size!
  11. [quote name='gjones' timestamp='1346097041' post='1785274'] When will we be able to buy the naked moderator 2013 calendar? [/quote]
  12. Damn sorry to hear that, is there any possibility of a DI into a desk? Not ideal I know but it will get you out of schtum
  13. Seem to be mixed reviews on the net but at least with Thomann you can return it if you don't like it.
  14. I keep forgetting I don't have work Monday. Gonna use it to get these tracks sorted for an audition on Wednesday
  15. You might get more gigs if you could read tab
  16. Yep, I've got a 60th which WAS standard when I got it
  17. Can't comment on how accurate it is but they usually get you close : [url="http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/a/anthrax/got_the_time_guitar_pro.htm"]http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/a/anthrax/got_the_time_guitar_pro.htm[/url] You'll need tuxguitar or guitarpro to view it
  18. Your problem is your tensing your jaw? Get some chewing gum and chew it while you practice (you may need to force yourself to do it at first). Once you're able to chew the gum without thinking about it then you can stop
  19. [quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1345728828' post='1780961'] I like the asthetics of steampunk but I didn't realise there wasand actual scene as such. [/quote] Same... I feel dumb
  20. [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] ...do you think it's right to sack your students if you feel that they are wasting your time? [/quote] Think of it as quitting a part time job, can you fill the void with another pupil? [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] It is now 2pm whereby he was booked in for an hour with me. At 1.40pm he texts me to cancel. Not the first time he has cancelled with such poor notice. He has cancelled every rescheduled lesson over the past three weeks. Last week really cheesed me off as I managed to squeeze in a lesson an hour before left the house to head to the Brecon Jazz Festival for a performance with little time to spare to get dressed and packed before hand and he cancelled that lesson. I was thankful I had the extra time to get ready, but I busted my balls to fit him in for a lesson that day. [/quote] Introduce cancellation fees as mentioned. [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] He's not interested learning any theory and simply just wants me to show him how to play songs in his band. [/quote] You work for him, not the other way around. When I have lessons (rare), I ask either for the theory to only be touched on if it's applied as I already have a basic (grade 5) understanding of theory. [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] He learning rate is very slow [/quote] That's upto him, the slower he learns the more lessons he needs, I expect he's not doing his "homework" but it's not your loss, far from it. [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] and is quite an arrogant little swine. In a nut shell, I don't like teaching him and I am losing potential earnings. [/quote] Again can you fill the slot? If you can then fair enough but maybe you should give him a "warning" first. [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1345728162' post='1780939'] I want to can him as soon as I calm down and call him to say I won't be teaching him again. I don't want to start a reputation of being iron fisted by being selective about whom I teach, but do you think I am doing the right thing? [/quote] Again can you fill the slot? If you can then fair enough but maybe you should give him a "warning" first. That way you don't come across as iron-fisted.
  21. Anyone know where I can pick up a cheap white pearloid scratchplate for my mim pbass. Tried we music and they're out of stock despite what their website says!
