Mmmmmm Tal 4000 will be along soon I am sure

Well, I finally got round to sorting out a soundcloud account. So far I have uploaded two albums I have played on. More will follow in time The first is the last album I played on for a band called Cow and recorded in 2012 at Paul Wellers Black Barn studios. I guess its a kind of acoustic, motown, soul, pop thing with a 60's and 70's american feel. For me the stand out tracks are Shivers, Gypsy Lover and Far Enough (fretless). [url="http://soundcloud.com/michael-boylan/sets/cow-dedicated-to-the-mighty/"]http://soundcloud.com/michael-boylan/sets/cow-dedicated-to-the-mighty/[/url] The second album is a band called Inter which is from 2000 and is guitar punk pop. It was recorded at Loco Studios in South Wales and produced by Mark Walis who produced The Wildhearts, U2, It Bites, The Smiths and many many more. Stand out tracks for me are Happy Ending (John Peel's favourite song of 1997), Swallow, Radio Finland and Real Horrowshow which along with Swallow are my favourites.

I'm new to EZdrummer and so far having a blast. However, I want to start writing my own drum pattern and songs. Will EZdrummer work with Pro Tools and is it possible to use EZdrummer to write your own drum patterns/songs within Pro Tools? Total newbie here so go gentle

Oh arse, must resist

[quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1334059821' post='1610233'] I might have an issue with my Reidmar. At loud volumes it's cutting out when I slap...as if it was hitting a limiter. It has only started to happen over the past couple of weeks. Even when the compressor/limiter control is off it still happens. Has anyone come across this yet? It could be that I am pushing the amp to its full capability, but it's a concern nonetheless. [/quote] Thats a shame shizznit. Hope its nothing serious. Not had any probs with mine but not needed to push it that hard so far. Keep us posted on how it goes.

[quote name='billyapple' timestamp='1333995709' post='1609401'] Well, it seems Daz is very negative about the whole thing, but where you went wrong was ironing it [/quote] Bugger so close but so far. If only I had skipped the ironing but my mum would not let me out the house if I had not ironed it, pulled my socks up and combed my hair with a side parting

I think where I went wrong was wearing my Wham - Wake Me Up Before You Go Go T-shirt I just thought being a big band from the 80's they would get it and we could get down on it together I even ironed it and washed it with Daz but clearly this was the wrong approach I'm going back to jeans and t-shirts and scruffy hair from now on. Sod em

Thanks Thunderbird.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1333549486' post='1603379'] I look at it like this... very good experience for our next auditions, no? They should be a breeze by comparison! Edit: Hope you're OK, mate. It took me a day or two to get over it! [/quote] HAHA yeah true

Thanks everyone. Feel pretty deflated but oh well, onwards and upwards as they say

Well, just had the email telling me that I am out of the running now Oh well, I was expecting it to be honest and happy that it seems I got down to the last 15 or so. The email was very nice saying that I am a fine bass player and played really well in the audition so I gave it my best shot Good luck to anyone left on BC

Thanks again everyone for the good luck wishes. Everytime I log into my emails, I am expecting the thanks but no thanks email so yes just a little bit tense here.

[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1333469203' post='1602191'] I wouldn't keep everything crossed for too long, you'll get pins and needles and get frightfully uncomfortable All the best mate. [/quote] Cheers mate

[quote name='i play in N #' timestamp='1333467593' post='1602143'] well it isnt me, i finally got my e-mail from them, so good luck to the rest who hav'nt heard yet , or at least not posted it up yet [/quote] Unlucky I have still not heard anything back yet so I have everything crossed now

[quote name='thunderbird13' timestamp='1333361014' post='1600425'] Hold on , Billyapple, Discreet, Bluray and Linus27 all managed to get an audition with NMA - I am seriously impressed well done guys and Linus fingers crossed [/quote] Don't forget Subaudio although not sure if he got an audition or not.

[quote name='Old Horse Murphy' timestamp='1333304706' post='1599818'] Here's my latest toy, bought from Stealth on Basschat. It's a 2003 Fretless with the most wonderful figuring on the neck and a superb bass to play too [/quote] Blimey Nick, that is gorgeous in a big way. Hope you like and stick with it. Very sweet looking bass indeed.

Thanks guys, fingers crossed here also

I'm a little worried here. I was also NMA bass player for half an hour yesterday afternoon yet I have not heard anything back yet. My audition went very well and I actually got to play a forth song, "White Light". So I guess no news is good news for me then. Fingers crossed but not expecting to get it.
