Send me the sterling body (via ups and with no padding). I'm moving house soon and if the shipment via ups doesn't wear it in to your liking I can put it through the move with me and won't be precious about it This way you'll get several dings out of the way and won't be able to tell when you do it yourself

You went for the 750 in the end then I still need to try one of those. I want to see what kind of difference it makes to the top end. I don't need any more power but a bit more top would be nice

Having you considered playing live in a plastic bubble? Seriously, just gig it. But insure it too. That way if anything serious happens you're covered

I heard about this happening. Should really take the key out of the case shouldn't I!

If you're out Cambridge way you're welcome to pop round

BRX, If you do record there it would be great if you did a video diary to go along with it :-)

Aye :-) I pride myself on comms Good luck in the hunt!

Reaper gets a lot of good press on here and at a pricerange between £0 and £30 you can't really complain. Personally I found it didn't really suit my workflow though. Logic is an excellent DAW but unless you want to build a hackintosh or go right down to Logic Platinum 5.5 it's out of the question unfortunately. Cubase, I couldn't get on with and didn't have the patience to sit it out Cakewalk, I couldn't get on with and didn't have the patience to sit it out ProTools is the one for me but the price can be a fair bit higher, you can check out the cheaper protools LE versions though. Personally, I would recommend Audacity as your first step. Learn all you can with there but don't struggle with anything once it starts getting any kind of complex. As soon as you need to do something you can't do in audacity move over to reaper. This will mean that you have audacity as your backup while you're learning reaper and will have 2 programs to fall back on instead of just one Good luck! PS. I believe there is someone selling a protools 7.3 with audio interface on this very forum somewhere.

Swap you some cookies for it?

[quote name='SteveK' timestamp='1343129432' post='1745652'] It's another tool! It [b]will[/b] put musicians out of work...the question is: To what degree? Probably not to the degree that string players have suffered. As suggested, a large proportion of what we hear as strings/orchestras are, in fact, virtual instruments. Of course the main consideration here is cost. Imagine paying 50-100 musicians for a session. Drummers too have suffered to a degree, there are producers who like total control and the options that the likes of Superior Drummer provides. It's possible that Trilian will fall into this category. As for, "It won't sound real", or "It's about how you play them", you may be right, but many producers, music makers etc couldn't give a toss if it sounds real. They will likely do something quirky with it that will be all the rage for a couple of years, and we will all be pulling our hair out about it. [/quote] Followed by, "how the hell can I play this bassline on a bass, my singer wants us to cover it and we need to try and get this sound! What effects are there for this etc".

Ah fair enough, that didn't come through in your previous post. I assumed you hadn't really heard from him

If it was only down to body shapes then Sadowsky have been making fenders for a few years

Tiny bit of paper in the nut groove has fixed this in the past for me

Still really want to try one of the EAD cabs, bit rich for me for the immediate future but I really want to like them (don't like yella though )

Oi, get back to insulting drummers and guitards will ya

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1342993576' post='1743682'] Oh dear! I've not had any freezes yet! [/quote] Fingers crossed for you, it's bloody frustrating. I've lost the keyboard for quite a few months at a time for the repairs too. Not fun. I just hope it doesn't keep re-occurring, I think if it happens again it'll be enough to drive me away from the brand despite the sounds

You may not particularly want to try this out but do you think the coating could still be shredded by a pick?

Yeah, it is a quite a bit further than I was looking for as I also enjoy the social aspect with bands

[quote name='ras52' timestamp='1343057322' post='1744458'] This may be true. But classical guitar notation has a cunning way around this by annotating the B with a circled "5". Of course, as my guitar, my strings, and my fingers aren't the same as Jimi's, I may find that there's another B on the board that works better for me. Alas, if I rely on tab I may not even know that it's a B, or where the other Bs might be on the board. (Or even that other Bs exist.) But this tab vs. notation has been done to death: OP's question was, how to get rid of it from a PDF. Printout, scissors and tape would be my suggestion. [i]Ideally... [/i]and I'm sure this is technically possible... we could have an electronic publication with checkboxes allowing to show score notation, tab, or both. Get to it, software developers! [/quote] It's called GuitarPro, TuxGuitar or Powertab

My Avatar isn't working? And you're right... damn. Link with FB must be down again

I'm just pointing out that tab can have a particular advantage to some people. Just because some people don't like it doesn't mean its validity should be questioned. Personally on stringed instruments which have it I prefer to use the combination of tab and score that I previously mentioned. On keyboard however there is no need as there is only one position per note that can be played.

One of the best I've played if not the best... I can't remember if I preferred that or your 6 now...

@ LukeTessie - Whoa! Is he waiting for the tree to grow?! Have you phoned him? I'd be at his door tbh...

It may seem very subtle with the RH450 because of the high frequency cut (everything over 6k I believe?). Check it with another amp before doing anything drastic
