Hefty?

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1483180741' post='3205212'] That seems like a bit of a faff, when you could simply use Audio HiJack to save the output of any audio stream from any application as a file. [/quote] Ooh! Downloaded!

I had one of his bass overdrives, excellent bit of kit.

Yes, which is why I quickly removed them and went back to Chromes!

Lovely, I like Teles so much I bought 2!

For the 2 completely different bands I'm in: Take It Easy Won't Get Fooled Again For the last 2 dep jobs I did: Rock Around The Clock Black Cat Bone

I played my first ever full-on blues gig last night, standing in with a well-established local band. I took a prompt sheet with notes on the style of each song, plus the first couple of bars of some of them in music notation. I really enjoyed the freedom to improvise around the basic form of each song, and hearing the excellent solos from the guitarist and keyboard player - who brought a real Leslie speaker with him! I got compliments on my sound and playing from the band, and on my playing and the band overall from a couple of punters. Well chuffed, and a couple more dep gigs in the diary for August too

(1) Playing with an indie/rock/punk covers trio, got a request for the Spongebob Squarepants theme: 'He lives in a pineapple under the sea' etc. (2) With a 50s /R'n'R all-male 4-piece, at a social club in the Welsh valleys (quite literally in the shadow of a mahoosive spoil heap), a lady of a certain age totters up to the stage and intones in a banshee-like voice: 'Play Tina Turner!'

Good for you and welcome to the world of ensemble music-making, the most fun you can have with your clothes on!

'The price is low...' it says. O...K...

Andy bought some bits from me and kindly let me know when they'd arrived

[quote name='Rubbersoul' timestamp='1485530845' post='3224706'] If you're using the monkey do you plug into the instrument or line level input? [/quote] The inputs on my interface are combined XLR/jack sockets so I just take a short jack lead from the "MIXER' output of the Bad Monkey and set the input gain of the interface to suit.

When the slapping starts, I switch off. It tells me nothing about how a piece of kit will perform for me. YMMV etc.

This is tonight btw. Car loaded, both guitarists complaining of the Brad Pitts!
