BassTractor

- Ordered last Monday evening for a Friday evening delivery (according to Thomann site). - Dispatched Wednesday. - DHL said delivery was to be Thursday evening, but then I got a delay message from them. - Item delivered Friday morning (this being in The Netherlands). That's three and a half days within the EU. I'd guess you could add two or three days for the UK.

@SamIAm was logged in to BC five days or so ago, so she may be read-only now. At the very least she'll now be notified about this thread. I hope she's well and doing OK. b

Not that bad, I find, once one gets one's head around certain aspects, which admittedly does take more time than say working with a Minimoog. Of course the lack of patch storage easily becomes a drawback.

Echoing @Happy Jack: "I know, I know, but it does really good bass sounds too ..." (for the unitiated: it's two Behringer 2600s, the tiny and cheap ARP 2600 clone, each spawning three oscillators and most of what you need to make a bass monstah).

Thoroughly in the "what the song needs" camp. Happily though, every song needs a complex line.

My bad. I meant reeds. Me mixing up my languages, that was.

Dutch classical pianist Daniël Wayenberg, after cöcking up during a relatively light-hearted Sunday afternoon concert, went down on his knees and crawled under the grand piano to pick up the missed notes, to then throw those notes back into the piano and play the piece from the start again - - playing well, this time. The audience lurved it.

IMS, technically, they can have different reeds with them so they can tune to a piano or an organ or somesuch, but indeed: When doing a gig with an orchestra (me on the organ), the oboe player was well grumpy initially, and explained what a hard time she had with this. Me, I don't really know what the problem is, but at a guess: they're not bringing 60 reeds to cater for a whole range of to-be-expected tuning standards. Edit: had used the word "fleece" for "reed".

Haven't watched the vid, but if the C=512, then the A can well be 432, depending on the system. The nonsense is not in the arithmetics, but in the taking random frequencies as being somehow "better".
