Maybe take a look at an online rig rundown for Royal Blood? I googled it just now and got this article. Maybe it could be of some help. https://www.quora.com/How-does-a-band-like-Royal-Blood-one-bassist-one-drummer-create-the-sound-of-a-full-band

Wow, thanks for your efforts. I’ll definitely take a closer look at the settings on MobileSheets. You‘re right, of course, at present I‘ve got everything as PDFs. Part of the reason for that being that they come from a variety of sources. Handwritten/scanned in, MuseScore saved as PDFs and PDFs donated by/cadged from mates. Thanks again, Paul.

Interesting stuff @TrevorR. At the risk of derailing the thread, I'm interested in scrolling because my, supposedly, 13" tablet is a cheat. It's not proper 13" like the iPad Pro. It's more long and narrow which leads to the Mobile Sheets Pro App. cropping charts to make them as small as on a 10" screen which, for my old eyes, rather defeats the object. However, when I lay it landscape-wise the pages are full A4 but you can only see half a sheet at a time. I wanted to scroll that way, but colleagues have warned me off doing that, having experienced 'jumps' intead of smooth scrolling which can leave you "off-page". Any tips for that? My PageFlip offers the function but I haven't gotten it to work so far.

That AirTurn looks pretty cool. I’ve got one with bells and whistles but actually only do basic page turning and I must admit that, much as it works fine with soft touch pedals, the feel of a stomp box switch would be more reassuring. I paid the extra after hearing horror stories about reliability. Has the AirTurn been safe so far?

I use the PageFlip Firefly with an Android tablet and Mobile Sheets Pro. It’s super reliable but pricey. https://m.thomann.de/gb/pageflip_firefly.htm

Sounds like a cool gig. Well done. ....you are Ed Friedland ( Bass whisperer) and I claim my £5.

Those are some killer sounds mate!

While I’m here, I’d like to thank Quatschmacher for all his help, both here and on the occasions where we’ve met in person. It really is a huge help chatting with someone who is both a user and has such expansive knowledge of synthesis.

@Al Krow much as I‘m very much in agreement with your views on fair pay for work, bear in mind that Panda Audio is essentially one person and not a large, exploitative corporation. I would also like to see Quatschmacher remunerated in some form, but my impression is that Andras (who basically IS Panda Audio) is also an enthusiast with limited resources. @Quatschmacher please feel free to jump in and correct me on this.

“I referred to the police as Five-O the other day and was tutted at by a youth, “Feds?” I offered, more tutting. I was informed that the current nomenclature round these parts is Po-Po.„ In German po-po is equivalent to the babyish expression botty.

Excuse me for repeating myself but I extol the virtues of this documentary at every opportunity. Genghis Blues, a moving story with some fantastic music, mixing blues with traditional Tuvan throat-singing. The whole film is viewable on YouTube:

Tastefully.

Alpenhorn envy anyone?

@Bluewine Blue needs to hear this.

Joyful. Thanks for posting 👍

Me too. I‘ve been playing for a living since I was a teenager. I’m now in my early 50s and have only managed to force myself to crack a smile when a camera is pointing at me in the last couple of years. I still can’t do it while playing.

Dear Blue, we‘re bass players and maybe not the big showmakers, I get it but FFS smile! 😉

Prince‘s quote about Sonny T. (I think it was on the cover of the Diamonds and Pearls album) prince on sonny t........cool quote ! "my childhood idol on the bass-sonny t.he can play a french girl's measurements on the bass and make u see' em"

Lovely. Once again confirming the impression that he really is a thoroughly nice person.

Did you manage to keep your cool or did you melt and go all fan boy? I suspect I might have done the latter.

So essentially the whole thing is driven by the ego battle between the guitarist and the singer. Who knew? 😘

@Jimothey don’t be so hard on yourself. The main defining factor is simply if the listener is familiar with the track in question.

Sorry, no bells ringing here.
