The MIDI THRU will only pass on the MIDI data it receives at the MIDI IN port - without converting it to working sound. [/quote] The Ashdown Superfly used MIDI data but that was to adjust the EQ.

Would it be feasible to wind your own inductors? Presumably you'd just need the right gauge wire and the right diameter former, and to know how many windings you'd need?

Just catching up, and looked at the relistings for this - interesting pricing policy, down to £255 at one point and now rising again, up to £295 now.

Being a lover of TV detectives, I have to mention [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtvdtOZyl2I"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtvdtOZyl2I[/url] which has a middle 8 I didn't know about and the absolutely magnificent [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u20sVtCxf_8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u20sVtCxf_8[/url] which also has a middle 8 I didn't know about. Incidentally, AIUI, the theme tunes for earliest episodes included the murderer's name in morse code too.

Wasn't the log from Twin Peaks?

Oh God, not another of Blue's critiquing threads.

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1497542592' post='3319003'] Don't knock it. Glen Miller discovered his "big band sound" through an accident with a horn player and a music stand. The horn player was going to sit down, his his horn into his teeth as it hit the music stand. From there on the trumpet player took over the horn part and "Big Band" was discovered... not a a lot of people know that. [/quote] I'm impressed that the trumpet player knew clarinet as well, and indeed that the horn player had decided to play the trumpet. If the myth is true, the trumpet player hurt his lip and Miller put the clarinettist in to play the trumpet part. If the myth isn't true, Miller decided that a lead clarinet would differentiate his sound from everyone else's.

70s rock - glam rock, then prog, and heavy metal. Loved (and still love) Marc Bolan's work in Tyrannosaurus Rex and T Rex.

It's not just about the 1, it's also about the word that the 1 hits, which isn't necessarily the start of the line. The vocal line often has a couple of words before the 1 - "well you WALKED into the party/like you were STEPping onto a a yacht" for example. Mrs Zero used to complain that most of my songs featured that, then I pointed out that half the covers we did also did that.

Most recently, I left a band I'd only just joined because I suddenly realised that the material made me feel old. I'm only 59.

Annoyed I couldn't make it as I had to do some work which was supposed to have been done last weekend, and decided as it was rather important that it was safer to do it from home than from the bash. I miss cake.

Don't forget Leonard Nimoy too, "Bilbo Baggins" had a similar fascination, aided by the video.

Where does Doctor Who stand then, travelling through time and space in a TARDIS?

T'Pau and Mr. Mister. Both had quite short lives, I liked them both.

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1493033087' post='3284941'] Bands that didn't last? All the John Mayall bands, Cream, The Jeff Beck Group and Fleetwood Mac. IMO these bands were redefining musicianship and didn't last long nearly long enough. [/quote] ITYF that Fleetwood Mac are still going.

Can I mention Greg Lake?

Looks like I'll have to do some work on Saturday afternoon. Is there wifi freely available there? Don't want to miss out on cake.

I can't believe that brilliant artists like Meatloaf and Bowie are being lumped in here, while no-one has mentioned Grandma by the St Winifred's School Choir. Shame on you all. Oh, and Agadoo is the best anti-earworm song ever written - if you get earwormed, just think of that. There is no room for any other earworm once that gets hold.

My Warwick JD Thumb. It's a four-string and I just play 5s these days, but there's no way I'm getting rid of it.

My own experience - I currently work slightly odd split day, 7-10 at home, then go to the office for 10:30, then leave at 4. This means that the postie almost always gets to me before I leave for work. They've never not knocked and just carded - if I get a card, it's when I've gone out before they come round (because the card isn't there before I leave the house). I get quite a few deliveries too, so I have a reasonable sample size. Obviously, though, these things aren't consistent - after all, some people find Herpes and Yokel to be good couriers.

There should be a "Like" button.

I used them to mount my Zoom B3 (and a Korg B3000X or whatever it was) into Stagg pedal cases. [url="http://www.pedalboardsupplies.com/pedal-links-system.html"]http://www.pedalboardsupplies.com/pedal-links-system.html[/url] But I'm sure I bought mine from a UK supplier and they weren't expensive. I'll try and remember to find out who it was.

Presumably you'll have an idea about which effects you'll want from using the multieffects. Isn't it more a case of wanting suggestions for each of the effects you're currently using?

[quote name='Ashweb' timestamp='1493158450' post='3286205'] AFAIK, if you move into an area where there is an existing 'noise issue' you have no real basis of complaint as the noise was already there; if however a 'noise issue' is introduced to an otherwise peaceful area then any complaint will be investigated and either removed or mitigated to all parties satisfaction. [/quote] My understanding is that everybody has the right to peace and quiet, regardless of whether they've moved in next door to somewhere noisy or not.
