charic

I prefer pro-tools for recording and editing, then editing further in logic. But im awkward. Unfortunately I now have no software. In the future I want a loooooooovely protools system. No sure MAC or PC yet as both have major faults. But we shall see when i have money eh?

Congratulations, you know it deserved it

As for specific examples, that would be the simultaneous using of any two cabs that don't have identical phase response.[/quote] In that case you'll be aware that such a subtle difference in phase would infact be neglectable in a band mix? Particularly if you mic each cab seperate and mix to desired levels. Stick with the try it and see approach Many people have told me certain microphone positions and editing techniques are ridiculous and will sound stupid. I done them anyway and then I get asked how because some sounded good (some sounded bad too). Sound is simple enough, the human ear however is another matter. And lets face it anyway, how many people actually LISTEN to the bass in a song? Most people i know feel it and subconciously listen. My £0.02

Lol i dont really get callouses unless i fingerpick guitar, which i stopped doing once i got a bass

Hah loving the names

Riteo.. sumtime around 8:30 start, only got a 30 minute set. But comeon guys its for charity! I wont even request a beer, now hows that for generosity!

I still dont understand why it needs to be aimed lol

Victor Wooten... Lol not exactly the kinda bass im used to seeing him playing

So now you wont mind giving me your fortress

Think its somewhere behind the grafton

Im wanting the sans-amp bass overdrive money though. However the overdrive in my lowdown is pretty damn good

Honestly I believe it may make quite a difference. Many people here have stated that the strings don't touch the fretboard. However... The frets are mounted on the fretboard Fretboard has different ridgity, strength and other properties Vibrations go from fret -> fretboard -> neck aswell as nut -> neck and bridge -> body -> neck These vibrations add up to a resultant vibration which ultimately will colour the sound, however we dont know how much

Sorry... i tried and ended up writing new riffs for my band instead. So thanks for the inspiration but they veared so far away from what i saw that it was silly. However... more pictures now need to be viewed for more inspiration. Off to deviantart I GO!

If it wasnt a 5 and if i had money i would

Good point well made sir

Hey ppl's my band have their first gig now Friday 13th (yeah i knw) of June. At the boxtree in cambridge Its a charity gig for "special needs" kids. Would be cool if some of u ppl could make it and criticize my bass playing so i have a reason to drown my sorrows after Were a heavy rock group called "scream in unison" (god knows why in all honesty i need to talk to them bout that name) altho we dont scream i can promise you. Nor do we growl or any form of shouting... infact we have a very talented female singer So whos coming? (btw i dont know the time yet... yer were organised like that) Rik

Keep the setup you have and try EQ'ing differently?

Yep... Dream theater (i attempt) Metallica Megadeth Iron Maiden Dragonforce And stuff

Hmm, my faves altho maybe not the best: Steve Harris Dave Ellefson John Myung Freeman from rancid

MIM pickguards are different from MIA. Its the number of screwholes that does it
