If I lived near that I would be round his house today with some cash!

My plan was that we were going to do quiet practices but then after agreeing to it, the guitarist didn't want to (you would think it would be the drummer wouldn't you? no).

I have a jam hub. I really need to sort out what I am doing with it, as I don't think I have used it in years.

Oh I assumed when you said C4 that was the prototype! Same here. They were so bad but looked so cool.

Cool - A full set of sinclair products if he also had the mini-tv!

Same as others. Doesn't bring anything to that song. Very good musicianship for other songs though

Careful., you could hurt yourself with that

We had that when we were playing every weekend, god knows what it is going to be like when we get back!

It is true though isn't it? I mean with the stomp, if you are not using an external pedal, it literally only has 3 pedals, of which one you need to change modes / tuners etc. So two buttons. I have looked, I didn't see any more buttons. So yes, you can do two pedals, but that seems it.

I like to think I have got better, but you never know until you are standing there thinking 'God, I have no idea how we start this song!"

It's something I have been thinking about this week, the wrong is sitting there doing nothing, instead of it just wasting away, it could have a life as a fretless, especially as I have recent put some dents on it

They come with a trrs 3.5mm cable (yes, 2 rs)

I looked at the kemper profilers but I didn't see the one that looked like that!

Had a look round the web, I can't see anything that has two rows of footswitches like that and a screen on the edge but doesn't have a rocker pedal on it. Did they genuinely use a casette to do the last song?

I would say so. Only just saw this. I don't think I ever used the term 'emulation' as I don't think it is possible to emulate a synth, seeing as a synth is fundamentally synthetic in the first place! The difference that I had explained between the SY (< 1000) series and the GR series is that the GR is an actual synth (ie, you can stick midi in and play it with a keyboard, and take midi out and feed it to a keyboard), so the string (every single string isolated) is taken in, it works out the frequency if each note and triggers, and feed those frequency to a set of oscilators and the triggers an envelope filter, and generates a sound, same as if the frequency and trigger came from a keyboard. The SY (<1000) series takes the waveform coming from the bass (singular - mixed waveform) and uses that in place of the oscilators. Plus side, instant, no latency, Minus side, you still never know what notes they were so you can't change them easily. But it appears the SY1000 has both. I assume whatever he has that can make him sound like the original programmed bass track on the album. Looks like an old vox, but probably isn't. Can't see anything like that.

Could have been worse, could have announced an effects pedal or something!

Thats always the dream. I keep having phases of trying to nail the stick, and sometimes I get slightly close!

You only like goldilocks basses?

Agreed. For me, my pedalboard never comes in, it lives with all my gigging equipment, and just goes out when gigging. I have some other effects I use in the house if I need them, but not tripping over another cable when out is great, and its something to not need to plug in which is even.. greater. I use the SH live, I have never noticed the smoothhound live (and why would I in a live context - 5ms is like being 1.5m from your cab), and it works well on the pedalboard but it would be too much hassle for home.

I must admit i was hoping for a 'most improved' category!

So is there a place where we can hear their entry to this 'top bassist' competition? I presume it was like a normal music exam or competition where you have a set piece, then a free choice piece, then a proficiancy test? No? Oh was it just a 'no news to write about' article?

I asked for a similar build before - you can have what you want (as I asked if he could do 16.5 - the pickups would be custom wound)

I read the forum starting with the activity - things I follow or posted in. Every time that 'in case you missed out thread' which I assumed I posted in back in the midst of times pops up in the way. Disproportionately irritating, I have unfollowed it but it is still there because of the post. I can't find it in the 'posts I follow' area (presumably as I don't follow it). Is there a way of ensuring it never appears again for me?
