the boy

[quote name='ras52' timestamp='1374154094' post='2145875'] I can play 'E' and 'D', but I've never heard of 'M'... [/quote] It's when you hum the note .................🎵mmmmmmmmmmmmm🎵.

Is the thing that we don't know who made which mix until the end? If so I think that is fair because I may have voted with my heart otherwise.

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1374141179' post='2145659'] Shows how little I know... [/quote] Hi Milty I guess the newer version is essentially the same as the 9 with some tricky bits added to keep it current. I do t think you should change.

[quote name='Bassmonkey' timestamp='1374138893' post='2145628'] i really like it. Must seek help...... [/quote] I really like it too. I wonder if you could make one using waterslide decals. I might try it if I get time.

I reckon this would fit well in this months composition comp. stick it in for some fun(ooh matron). 😳

I used to be a big fan. Now it all seems the same. They've been generically enhanced by their record company and now all their songs sound like They were co written by Brian Adams.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1374070111' post='2144960'] What I mean is, you should try to ensure your tone/s fit the band's music, that they complement the band, and if you so wish you can build your personality into them as well. All the band members need good sounds and they all need to work together, in the studio and on the stage. Why this is so hard to understand is beyond me. If you don't care about your tone, that's fair enough, but don't be preaching that mantra to others, that they're mugs for caring. [/quote] You see, that's much nicer. You can be nice when you try. Noones calling you a mug. Stay with me a while. Do you mind if I sit beside you? Aaaaahhhhhh that's nice. You are really such a nice boy. I wasn't cross with you earlier, really I wasn't. You mustn't ever think that, but I must say I didn't like your "TONE".

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1374067774' post='2144912'] Good points. We play in [u]bands[/u] don't we and people come to hear a [u]band[/u] don't they? Who goes to a band to listen to the tone of the bassplayer - apart from other bassplayers perhaps! I've seen bands (without a desk) set themselves up by each spending ages fiddling with their amp and pedal settings until they are all individually happy and then start playing without any reference to the overall mix for the audience. I guess they sound good to themselves on stage but the results can be crap for the audience. [/quote] Bravo!!!!!

I like it.

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1374059478' post='2144746'] Haha, I doubt that would actually work. Good thought though [/quote] Quitter...... You'd be surprised.

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1374063025' post='2144822'] You're on the right track [/quote] I'm out, I'm way to ugly for a video.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1374060321' post='2144773'] Part truth, part bollocks. Most of the bassists we talk about worked hard and evolved their tones and sounds. It's really important that your band sounds the best it can and projects a sonic attitude, unless you don't care if you sound like Bill sh*tt*r & The Shittones down the Twat & Cabbage on Tuesday night before the meat raffle. [/quote] "A sonic attitude" now you see that's exactly the kind of bollix I'm going on about. What does that even mean. A band may have a signature sound ie "he has always used chorus" or "she has always gone for overdrive". Details like that I find acceptable however the rest if it is a mixture of OCD and vanity. I normally rely on you old boy for sane rationality however it would seem that the blood sucking bastards have sank their fangs into you too, and alas I have lost a true ally to this mad world of "low end" and "sonic attitude". I guess it won't be long before they come for me. Resistance will be futile but I won't let the bastards take me without a fight. What's that noise? I think I hear them on the stairs now, quick where is my corkscrew? I would rather gouge out my eardrums than be tones whore......... Hello? Hello? No this is not "the boys" apartment. He lives next door but I think he's out. What are you doing? I've told you I am not he!! Stop this at once!! Ooohhhh? Stoppit! Now cut it out, seriously you guys this isn't cool!!!!! Oh actually, show me that one again. Oh right? So what you're saying is, if I flick the modulator while stepping on the flange drive assuming off course I'm using your pickups and your amp and his pedal....... I should get the sound in my head......... Oh my god that's amazing. Let me get my credit card. Can I get you guys a drink? You must be really thirsty after kicking my door down............... No, I'm out of Cinzano but I've got some west coast cooler.

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1374015098' post='2144369'] Any one else just plug in then turn knobs til it sounds good?! [/quote] Absolutely, this is what it's all about. 90% of tone etc is all bollix. So is all the talk and spew that comes out of people's mouths trying to describe what they are hoping to achieve. This is the nerd element of this game and something I have in the past exhausted my self with until I realised that you will only ever achieve good tone when you stop caring. Perfect tone is a myth and a scam generated by people trying to sell us gear and gives us gas. Oh yeah another thing I've learned over the years is that the key to good tone is having volume to spare.

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1374056821' post='2144694'] There's no prize unfortunately not for lack of trying However, anyone who takes part will definitely be doing something they have never done before as part of this competition [/quote] Has it crossed your mind that people might not bother entering if its too hard. You do know that entries are not compulsory. That would be a disaster. Lol

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1374056484' post='2144686'] Of course, but I am in no way an expert on any of this, and I'm not likely to be one any time soon. [/quote] LOL You crack me up. Ill bet if you write to apple telling them of your disappointment at finding out there is a new version out only months after purchasing your app, plus add in a few details of your recent past under the surgeons knife they would be more than happy to sort you out with the latest version. I'm very familiar with apple and their products and always found them very helpful. Also inform them of how long you had waited to buy this app because you were saving up your coupons/vouchers. Give it a go. Start a new topic and let us know how you get on. You have the time.......

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1374014507' post='2144355'] Done! See original post for a handy list of links to each mix. [/quote] Sorry mate. Saw it.

Ignore the above. One stands out to me as a clear winner.

I can't find any of the mixes on my phone. It would be cool if they were all arranged in a list so you don't have to go looking for each mix.

Surely the upgrade is free.

It was relisted after the auction expired for the same price so I might give it a swerve. I'm not sure if its worth the money. It's certainly worth the money but what I'm saying is I reckon I can pick a similar up cheaper.

Cheers guys. A grand is a bit rich alright. I really want one with the fender logo though. Ill see how it goes.

I know it's finishing in 2 hrs but I'm not really fussed about that. My plan is to contact the seller and make an offer if it doesn't sell.

Hi I'm really tempted by this. Is it worth the money? I would play it a lot so there's no investment opportunity here. Any advice or points of view would be great. http://bit.ly/12SvEOL

This should be interesting.
