I think some people are more suited to windows and android based things, and others are more in tune with Apple based things. I can never work windows PC's, or android phones, they just don't seem 'right' to my mind. Apple stuff though just seems intuitive to me. My one brother is totally the opposite and hates Mac's and iPhones.

Totally useless [/quote] Click get info, open safari go onto amazon and drag the photo of the artwork onto the blank space in iTunes.

This was on Talkbass a few weeks ago. It wasn't a lot of money that they owed either, just cash-flow meaning they couldn't meet their commitments. Does possibly mean my mint Q6 will appreciate over the coming years. Very sad though, cos I'd have like a fretless Q6 to go with it.

I approach difficult bits by breaking them down, pencil through the bar breaking the phrase into single beats, so you can see what's going on. Agree if I have to actually sight read a part never seen before (rare), I'd maybe play something appropriate, much better than messing it up.

He seems like a really nice guy, and is very serious about his teaching. He's also a great player.

[quote name='ML94' timestamp='1391364555' post='2356268'] Just modified this post instead of creating a new topic about working out rhythms [/quote] Have you got Sibelius ? It can be really useful for working complex notated rhythms that you have to play. Just enter the part in and it'll play it back to you.

[quote name='Jigster' timestamp='1391377916' post='2356568'] gulp [/quote] It has dots on 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12 etc. It's really not as intimidating as you'd think to be honest.

[quote name='Jigster' timestamp='1391377640' post='2356559'] sure, that's the next step. what did you buy out of interest? [/quote] This beauty .

Something to maybe consider is a clip on tuner, and practice with one of them to start with, until you 'know' where to hit the right note.

Use your ears. I just got an unlined fretless yesterday, surprisingly it's easier than I expected it to be. Also surprisingly I can hear if a note is out even slightly.

One section at a time. I import the track into Logic. You can loop a section then and just work on it that way.

What type of bass is this ?

[quote name='Hector' timestamp='1391336778' post='2355813'] I know right? Love his enthusiastic/encouraging writing style as well. My only gripe is that anyone playing more than 4 strings is kind of left to their own devices, but the patterns given for the 4 strings are easily extendable. I suppose including 5 and 6 string patterns would make the book far too long. [/quote] Tony Grey plays 6 mostly.

Do a search on Talkbass for this subject, you'll see hundreds of threads and hundreds of answers all saying no, it can't possibly cause any damage to your bass. Guitars and basses are hung on walls all over the world in shops and luthiers workshops, I've never read anyone saying categorically that they've discovered that hanging a bass or guitar will cause any neck problems.

Well this is now mine .

Ibanez BTB 765 ? Check out Robin Zielhorst's playing with Exivious, he uses a fretless. He used to play Carvin basses, don't know what he uses now though. [url="http://www.exivious.net/index.php?sub=band"]http://www.exivious.net/index.php?sub=band[/url]

[quote name='Prosebass' timestamp='1391250968' post='2354928'] It is really difficult to get the proportions right on a singlecut and then opinions are always subjective. I think this one has it about 'right' but then what would I know? [attachment=153811:Sonorous06.jpg] [/quote] That looks OK apart from the rather square shape and the funny little plate with the controls on .

Getting a bass to record via any sort of built in mic is probably gonna be pretty hard to do. Bass sound waves are pretty big things.

Can I ask what that building is please ?
