I've listened to the other stuff on your page and as I said before your damn good. I'd ignore the stupid comments, they prob got their fingers trapped in a door or somthing. I think most of us would notice that you're skilled enough to know where you need to 'improve'. Although I didn't notice any errors. Keep on keeping on![/quote] aw thankyou! Theres definitely errors, but thats alright, its all a learning curve Z x

[quote name='Golchen' post='550611' date='Jul 24 2009, 09:41 PM']can't see any that appeal to me particularly. I hate the danelectro longhorn shape, the vox teardrop and the hohner violin for starters![/quote] haha +1 Z x

[quote name='lee4' post='551404' date='Jul 25 2009, 09:11 PM']Zoe,I had a listen to some of your other songs.Great tone,great feel! As musicians,we should never stop learning,and always try to push ourselves.[/quote] No one every stops learning. even the VERY best. and Thanks for having a listen its just simple little things i put together, but i really enjoy it. Z x

[quote name='SingLadies' post='550469' date='Jul 24 2009, 06:37 PM']Hey Zoe Just stuck up the unmixed version my Covers band have recorded. I cranked the bass up a bit so you could hear my effort lol. [url="http://www.myspace.com/singladies"]http://www.myspace.com/singladies[/url] All the best Geoff[/quote] I really like the way you guys have played it. very nice Z x

[quote name='cetera' post='550307' date='Jul 24 2009, 03:42 PM']Who's to say or to judge what is perfect or not? :/ Personally I thought you did just fine.... but, ultimately, praise or criticism is worthless as long as you, yourself, are happy with your achievement! Life shouldn't be about impressing other people.... it should be about making yourself happy. You go girl!![/quote] well i am happy with it I am just learning right now, I always will be. and its my 'personal best' so far.. so yeah, im happy with that Thanks again Gary Z x

[quote name='funkypenguin' post='550267' date='Jul 24 2009, 03:11 PM']First off, thats a great recording you've put together there your time feel is top notch! how are you recording? DI'ing from your amp, or going straight into the desk/unit? about the post of it being 'perfect'....it really depends on what you want, wether you want, as you say, a 'perfect' modern studio type recording, or if you want a more raw sound, complete with imperfections. there is no wrong way to record! and theres always a 'point' to it! its amazing how much you can learn about your own playing through recording. good job! ben[/quote] Cheers! im just going straight into my mac. with a 1/4" mono to a 1/8" stereo cable. veryy simple haha Z x

he used the aerodyne style P for a while didnt he? didn't realize he used this now Z x

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='549894' date='Jul 24 2009, 10:43 AM']Pendulum...are they a swing band?[/quote] +1 on putting it in the quotes thread Z x

[quote name='Higgie' post='549880' date='Jul 24 2009, 10:36 AM']Zoe, I agree that it's not perfect, but it's a fantastic effort and you should be proud of what you have achieved.[/quote] Thanks x [quote name='Faithless' post='549912' date='Jul 24 2009, 10:50 AM']I think, I won't be going into arguing anymore here for now Faith.[/quote] For now?? theres nothing to argue about at all, nevermind about 'for now..' hmm.. Z x

[quote name='SingLadies' post='549672' date='Jul 24 2009, 01:43 AM']Zoe Just play it and be happy that you've worked it out[/quote] That..right there.. is EXACTLY what this thread was meant to be about Z x

They've really shot up in price over the past few years. you used to be able to get a real nice 2nd hand one for £700.. what they going for now?? Z x

[quote name='skankdelvar' post='549647' date='Jul 24 2009, 01:15 AM']Hon, it's an achievement for anyone. As for you Faith, why not show her how it should be done? Post your version - [i]in a new thread [/i] - played over the original at song tempo. 48 hrs long enough to record it and get it up?[/quote] But remember.. it has to be perfect.. or theres no point..apparently............. Z x

[quote name='OldGit' post='549627' date='Jul 24 2009, 12:55 AM']Windows Media Player has a speed control if you have it in MP3...[/quote] im on a mac.. you can probably do it in garageband.. but ah well Z x

Sorry! been out seeing Pendulum live.. amazing! but Hello! im back.. haha Welcome to the forum Z x

Hey.. Welcome Z x

[quote name='Faithless' post='549479' date='Jul 23 2009, 10:33 PM']Now, at the end, question exactly to Zoe: Can you tell, what was the point recording a song in such tempo (where you can't properly play it [i]at the moment[/i], as we see..), when you could've done it a bit slower (10% or somethin' like that..) and make it with hardly any fluffs? Was it a simple rush or anything else? The interesting fact is, that you will never ever nail any tune properly, if you rush it with tempo. I quit for now, Faith.[/quote] I do understand what you're saying. but... 1: i was just excited that i could play it like i can, that is an achievement for me. that is all! I know i struggle with it, but i wasnt posting it as a 'final - mastered version' or anything of the sort. its simply, just me, having a little bit of fun. And 2: I dont know how to slow a song down, unless im using my Tascam trainer. It was just a bit of fun. Z x

[quote name='OldGit' post='549193' date='Jul 23 2009, 05:26 PM']fnar fnar again You set 'em up Zoe ..[/quote]

Hey Iain Welcome to the forum. I hope you have all your bass questions answered here! Z x

[quote name='Earbrass' post='549095' date='Jul 23 2009, 04:10 PM']Sorry, didn't mean to scare you off! I'm not terribly sure about the PRS / rights stuff, which is why I posted asking for others' views, so please don't take my word as in any sense authoritative on this.[/quote] aw no it didnt. i wasn't on about the PRS thing when i said that [quote name='silddx' post='549096' date='Jul 23 2009, 04:11 PM']Yeah, same here, I have a couple of vids of me playing along to Rush and Zappa, have had for a while. There is loads of it out there untouched. They only took the direct rips, file sharing stuff off there I believe.[/quote] and awesome, could you send me a link? x

[quote name='silddx' post='549086' date='Jul 23 2009, 04:07 PM']I wouldn't worry about it. The purpose is to demonstrate you can play along with it. If Youtube haven't taken stuff like this down, don't worry.[/quote] yeah i've been ok with youtube so far. and theres covers on there. Z x

I'm probably gunna stop stop posting stuff on here, maybe my own stuff, in the quiet recording thread. but I wouldn't have posted it on here if I knew it would cause this. I really am VERY thankful beyond words for all your amazing comments, i really am But i'll try just stick to my own stuff in future. Z x

[quote name='Earbrass' post='549055' date='Jul 23 2009, 03:49 PM']On a side issue - isn't Zoe risking a demand for payment from the PRS by posting a version of HMWYRS on Myspace? One reason I've not set up a myspace page is that the tracks I'd be happy to post are covers of jazz tunes not yet out of copyright - I assume if I post them I'd thereby make myself liable for PRS fees. Anyone any thoughts or experience on this? Also I think Faithless has been treated rather harshly in this thread; it's very easy for a post to come across as less polite (or otherwise having a different 'tone') than may have been intended if you're writing in a language that isn't your native tongue.[/quote] Yeah, I have been worried about the whole PRS thing. its getting a bit silly really. what about... taking the song out the background? and just having the bassline? would that be ok? and its cool, people can have opinions. I know hes not english, so things he said could have come across more harshly. but even still, there isnt need for somethings. Criticism, i can take. like everyone, I get it. and like i said before, 'constructive criticism' is all well and good. Z x
