  1. Every time I've been anywhere near a music shop, I have been at least 80% close to pulling the trigger on something - big or small. As geeky or as niche as I may be I'd hate to be thought of as a time waster
  2. try me with a trade? Of particular interest would be something of good quality with 88 keys!
  3. Akai MPC 1000 black edition, complete with flightcase, 2x CF cards, JJOS (OS 1 version 5.0 - it's a paid for version) and power cable. Unit is 100% functional, but has a couple of scratches on the front edge, which doesn't affect functionality, but are noticeable hence the low, low price. 5 other drum machines and lack of useable space force sale. Happy for you to collect and try out, local delivery might be possible, or secure postage with a bank transfer. Thanks for checking the ad 7AEC6E9B-DE2B-491C-B37A-5C230E741763_1_201_a.heic
  4. Warez and not paying for software is a bit uncool these days... it's not the done thing
  5. I'm really happy with my current and only bass, 2005 EBMM Stingray Ltd Ed 4H 3eq with a rosewood board. I do wonder sometimes what it would be like to swap for a 78/79 Pre Eb Stingray in black with a maple neck
  6. Glad it turned up! Just leave the seller negative feedback...make sure it is factual, but negative - and enjoy the cab!
  7. Did he package the cab? ... I suppose if you're not an experienced shipper or seller, the temptation is to just slap a label on the item & hope for the best. I've known this happen once or twice
  8. It will get sorted rest assured, and they will find in your favour based on what you have posted.
  9. I'd just file a complaint with eBay and let them take the strain.. Afterall, they should earn their high fees
  10. How about approaching the problem another way? What could you do with the existing space in your attic - what compromises could you make, and still have a nice space to make music Do you really need acoustic drums? Could you make do with a decent electric kit? Same with guitar amps and bass - Could you DI them or use a Kemper or similar modelling amp (or software)... if you could do these things, you'd save yourself a whole lot of money and grief. Your neighbours would thank you too. I would invest in a small vocal isolation booth though, if recording a lot of vocals
  11. About as legitimate as a seven pound note!
  12. Does anyone under the age of 60 watch TV anymore? It's a dying medium
  13. This is what 'unblocks' me - just bouncing ideas off another musician, or failing that just someone who might be remotely interested in music. Often it doesn't take much - sometimes a 20 min chat/suggestions is enough to get the creativity flowing
  14. We bought a Piano from Andertons that got cosmetically damaged in transit. They were 110% helpful getting a replacement to us, and getting the damaged one back to them - a logistical challenge for an item that was 120kgs + Real humans that care about their customers
  15. As a first mic, id recommend a Shure SM57, you should be able to find one new under your budget. It is really easy to get a good sound (unlike a cheap LDC) and can be used on most instruments and vocals alike. It's a dynamic mic, which won't require phantom powering. The SM57 has the same capsule as a SM58, just in a more versatile package. Most Pro studios have at least one SM57 in their mic cupboard - they are like the Swiss Army knife of mics! For an interface, i'd really recommend something from Focusrite -> not just because their quality is top notch, but also the support of their products, they really do set the bar for taking care of their customers. The 2i2 model seems very popular (or one of the bigger interfaces if you need more inputs).
