    Ta Toasted. I could really do with a TB looper right now. I'm thinking of resorting to a soldering iron and i'm more likely to burn my eye out than make something usable. Dan
  2. [quote name='karlbbb' post='394656' date='Jan 29 2009, 03:26 PM']Very much so, used it to drive the power amp section of my Peavey combo.[/quote] This still around Karl? Ta, Dan
  3. I suppose if the pots are directly soldered to the board, and the board is 2" x 3", that's a big hole in your bass to fit it all in. Dan
  4. Just over 24 hours left guys!!
  5. I wanted a white jazz body, so why not get a bridge and pickups and everything so I bought one. Does the job, sounds like a jazz, cost £200 second hand. Easy. Dan
  6. I had a quote from a local luthier to put a new fingerboard on a neck. Basically it came to around £150. You could shift the bridge and get a neck/fretboard that was spaced for a 36" scale. Just a thought!! Dan
  7. +1 on the trim pot on the underside. Dan
  8. YouMa - I suppose they are providing competition but i know a lot of serious electronic artists that won't risk a laptop crashing on stage. I'm one of them too! Owen - Buy a gk3b and axon ax100 and you'll be blown away. i am!! Joe - i'd rather sell it on here. Make me an offer!!
  9. Sorry Owen, no external audio in. What is it that you would be trying to do? Vocoding? Dan
  10. I play midibass and used a behringer to mute and unmute the 8 different patches that can run concurrently. If you're genuinely interested Joe (and I think you should be!!), i'd be willing to trade/negotiate. I still own my MicroKorg, but versatility-wise, it's a pedal dynamo to this nuclear powerstation. I love the distortion and chorus in the effects section (controllable by dedicated knobs) that add a HUGE amount of harmonic content to whatever sound you're using. I'm starting to remember why I own this thing!! Dan

    Anyone got a phone number for these guys? Their emails down and my bro owes me a chistmas present!! Dan
  12. In essence, it is 8 wicked synths at once. Not much use for Mad Caddies, but maybe Tinchy Stryder. Dan
  13. Hey guys, I've listed my Novation Supernova Rack on Ebay (280309213968). Awesome bit of kit. I'll let it go for £220 if someone wants it here. Dan
  14. Hi G, Let me know how you get on. I recently put together my board with Diago Deluxe Daisy Chain power, red adaptor for moog. All should work but the moog causes a horrible and LOUD whining sound from my pedals. Here's the problem before I tried unplugging the moog:
  15. What brand/type of laquer have you used? It looks great!!! Dan
  16. if the sale for the napalm doesnt go thru, if defo interested. dan
  17. I'm a daily player, and the last time i got blisters was New Year's Eve, pissed up during a 3 hour jam on my upright through an underpowered amp. The day after, i realised how important my playing technique was, and that through comprimising I had suffered. Make sure you're well monitored, practise the parts thoroughly (Not only getting your chops up but also making sure it'll be fewer takes) and warm up before playing. That'd be my advice. Dan
  18. Hi everyone, Whilst in my local PMT I noticed a number of Blackstar Amps valve distortion pedals. I came home and had a read. UK based, valve distortion pedals. Sounded familiar, as I've been GASing for a DHA Dual Custom for about 2 years (no impulse buys here!!!). Anyone know the major differences, or why the Blackstar equivalent of the VT2 Dual Custom is a lot cheaper? Many thanks, Dan
  19. i learnt a lot of theory and continue to do so. I use it all on a daily basis. I find it invaluable. reading less so. Dan
  20. Are you using a lid when transporting? This looks a million times better than my last attempt (mdf and nails!!!) Dan
  21. My DSP started as an Allparts body and neck. I added the DS, scratch and covers: I recently put a Squier CV Jazz body and a J&D Brothers fretless neck together: Problem is the neck's for a MM style bass (21 frets rather than 20) I've moved the bridge to sort out intonation: I may even tractor it up with some pimpin' Kent Armstrong Lipsticks/ Dark star with a scratch to match my P. Dan
  22. [quote name='The Funk' post='376980' date='Jan 11 2009, 06:24 PM']Agreed. Where you say "a metronome is a much purer form of time", I'd say "it's easy to keep time when you have a 'perfect' drum machine playing a groove for you - harder when it's just a series of unaccented clicks". If you want to improve your time, play with a metronome. If you want to have something to noodle along to without the hassle of a drummer, use a drum machine (or sequence them on a computer - who actually uses a drum machine these days?).[/quote] I agree. When I am doing hard, technical practice, I use a metronome on beats 2 + 4, like a snare drum (Thank you Steve Berry!!!). It tests your timing as does wonders for your internal metronome. Otherwise I use Logic, Ableton or [url="http://www.hobnox.com/audiotool.1046.en.html"]HOBNOX Audiotool[/url]. Dan
  23. Yeah, the PWs are looking mightily tempting. Especially since i have some rather large distances (back of the moog to the LS-2). Dan
  24. [quote name='gafbass02' post='376260' date='Jan 10 2009, 04:58 PM']I use the ce2 which really is fab and ive been through a lot of chorus pedals.[/quote] Is that the CE-2 or CEB-2? Thanks, Dan
