I am the same with my band. Me and the drummer use IEMs, the singer and guitarist don't. I have the PA and do the sound (and it is all my stuff). they have mentioned monitors several times but I have said, if they want monitors I have an output for them, but its nothing that I need to buy, so of course, there aren't any monitors. -
Replacing a truss rod - A sanity check
Woodinblack replied to SamIAm's topic in Repairs and Technical
They will be the same apart from maybe rounding. one fret up has to be the same proportional distance from the previous one, regardless of the original scale, ie, the 15th fret will always be the 12th fret from the point of view of the 3rd fret, as it will always be half the length of the remaining scale. Distance from bridge = total scale / (2 ^ (fret / 12))) As far as I can see that is the easy but. But how do you put a shorter truss rod in a bass modifying the original holes, and to do so isn't that more work than just building a new neck in the first place? -
So why have you seen them so many times? I went to see them in london a few years ago, I had seen them many times before and they have always been good, but this time he was ranting about the audience not being appreciative enough and it was generally just very flat and lifeless. I haven't bothered going back since

I love coloured necks, so I like it, it is just that bit. I would certainly get one of those if it turned up, although there is the cost of new pickups.
-
Well, I love it. The only thing I don't love is the brown bit by the end of the neck, would it have killed them to make it blue?
-
Dont think I ever posted my RST in here did I? Unbelievably light (less than 8lb) and sounds great. Roasted maple neck, body.. I guess carved air - actually probably some kind of paulonia like stuff as there are a few bumps on there. Agular pickups and an agular preamp - a bit confusing as the controls are different from my other Spector, with the knobs in the same place, being volume / volume / bass / treble (instead of Volume / balance / Bass-treble / Mid & freq. Only downside was I had to replace the jack socket, which was a bit poor as it is had to be less than a year old. Still, for the price I got it for, not complaining.

daisy chain anything that doesn't make a noise when you do, and isolate anything that does.

MuseScore output PDF contains all the individual items separated, so quite easy to modify, just that it doesn't always link to the right font. Good starting point though. The PDF is a native image type on the mac so you don't need to snapshot it.
-
well, that is how I use songbook, I just wondered how forscore is good for that
-
Wow - I would get that if I was anywhere near there!
-
I got confused on that. I replied about my plucking thumb position and then when I went back people were saying about the thumb position on the neck (which I didn't think was a thing - more a guitar thing) so I assumed I just read it wrong.
-
Fair enough - seem to makes sense, shame to not see your headless conversion, but if you find the weight too much it probably won't get too much better, and the fancy dark labella strings are pretty expensive where you can find them. Been interesting though, I don't have a problem with the electronics or the overall weight, but the headstock heaviness is a bit of an issue and it got me thinking that I should do something about it, as it is a fun bass to gig.
-
Although I have forscore, which I use for piano sheet music (and it is great for it), I can't think how I would use it live, what do people do with that?
-
What is the difference between burning in and 'using them to listen to music'
-
Midipulator? Midress? Miditrixer? Midi-Eval? Midi-Evalist? Start running out of words you can put midi in front of that other people haven't used quickly! Effector? Effect-Ive
-
The public peace one - ETS I think.
-
The Midiator
-
I reckon it is doable
-
One of these two I guess..
-
Think you are just getting confused with a wordle answer or something!
-
I doubt it - but maybe he started with 1 and then added the other one later. Has the advantage that you are always going to have a pickup if one battery dies!
-
We probably have about that, if you consider the seasonal and special ones,. but I mean even in a gig, we have a baseline of 30 songs on the setlist for one gig.
-
Wow - dream of 15-20 songs in a setlist!
-
Never had one go wrong. Have lost paper. Wouldn't use paper now. I am sure the OP is very interested on everyones paper and biro choices here, but they were actually asking about what software people use I thought? I actually have a couple of groups song collections on songbook and then sublists of which group has those songs (there were some crossovers) and then setlists for current and previous gigs. It is also handy to see what setlists we were using at specific gigs (I record them anyway).

I am playing in a working mens club in Stoke Sub Hamdon. I know, sounds small but I am sure it is going to be packed and looking forward to it. It is our last gig with our current guitarist (again - we did this before but now we have a new guitarist), and should be good fun. Reminds me, i need to put an advert up! Beats watching Jools on the telly!
