Fine here on Firefox, says that the certificate is invalid but doesn't stop me going there. Mind you, that is because I am going to http://www.sfxsound.com/home . If I went to the https site it wouldn't work as the certficate is invalid https://www.sfxsound.com/home/ I have the same issue on my site, with chrome it will default to going to an https site if you don't tell iit.

My maruszczyk has a flame maple neck, its pretty solid and only adjusted it when I put tapewounds on it once.

Not sure if it is doing something wrong or just the settings on my iPad, but when I plug the red lead in the headphone I just get the sound from the microphones on the iPad, so as a result it doesn't work. Seems like logically it should, and maybe it is my hardware. oh hang on, I have an older iPad, I wonder what it does with that? Nope, that doesn't work either.

ok, didn't think of that, I will give it a try. Oh, presumably a iOS device with a headphone

I have the SC01, so no idea about the XLR (although it seems like it should, the manual is downloadable). The batteries last for ages. I use rechargeables as I have loads of them around. you can plug an iPhone in the aux in (or the link) but obviously if you wanted to 'use it as an effector' you would have to take the output from the iPhone, so the bass would have to go into the iPhone rather than the input. So I am not sure what they are getting at there.

Well, Van Halen weren't VH without the original lineup. Everyone knows that!

Jesters tear is pretty much my favourite. After that it all went downhill!

He did, then Geddy Lee sung it. He is such a copycat, must be irritating.

Its fairly pointless to try and make someone to like something they don't like, as at best all you are going to get really is appreciation for skill, but not like. Yep, case in point. After you mentioning them I listened to what you recommended. I really don't hear any of that, or anything memorable or interesting in it. I think there is something that gets fixed somewhere and after a point, certain types of music just don't chime.

I find DSOTM a classic album that changed a lot but it is not something I would listen too much, I think WYWH is a more complete album, as is the wall. I enjoy listening to PG era Genesis, but to me it is the group that would become the PC era Genesis which is what Genesis is in my head from Trick of the Tail down. I think PG leaving Genesis was the best thing that happened to music, I think it produced a better Genesis and a better Peter Gabriel. Rush, anything before Hold Your Fire are fantastic albums that I can listen to any time, and on any different day I would pick a different album as a favourite, even down to the first 2. from hold your fire on I never really got into it, and although I had friends that said 'oh you should listen to the new album, its like they used to be', it never was fro me.

I left a band, followed by the drummer, 2 singers. Upon which the keys (the reason everyone left) said don't leave and left himself so everyone rejoined. He has since made noises about rejoining but it really isn't an option.

That is really sad, when van Haley hit there was nothing like them

That is lovely. Still so tempted but.. Maybe when I get back up to £3k of gigging money!

No arguments with any of that!

{curtain rises} D, E, F; You are not discussing the original subject, stop it!

True, but I have a Zoom B3n and frankly I have virtually never used that

I will take your word for it. I would say we lack a common framework in our understanding of music!

Yes, I know spotify, and even have an account somewhere but I have forgotten the login for it. I have apple music though so found it on there. Certainly better than the live version (which was largely drums) but can't say I am a fan. Really dislike the vocals, so its hard to appreciate the music that much but I found the timing of the track off (especially on the vocals, but even before that). Obviously I can't say whether the timing would have annoyed me if I had never heard the original and I think it is probably as I have played that with a few bands, so have a big familiarity with it that it grates so much. But even without that, if you don't like the vocals I am guessing it isn't going to work

Or as we call it, @Al Krow had moved onto other things by then

I am obviously in no position to say that, as long as someone has value to someone, they have value. Yep.

I don't have Spotify, so I could only see the version on youtube, which was live. Its quite well done and an interesting cover version, but not quite up there for me (even with other cover versions I have seen). Maybe the spotify version is a studio or something.

Very little indeed. How did that work out, It sort of went quiet. I am guessing it failed to be anything special

So its a 'you had to be there' thing? There is no link that I see between liking something and views on their level. I dislike Jaco, I couldn't listen to any of it, but he is clearly so far above my level that I would need to practice for my life to be like him on a bad day. Ditto quite a lot of jazz, or virtuoso guitarists, or Opera. My views on this are nothing to do with not liking. Maybe not the best examples, as both with the maths and the Picasso, I can understand what I don't understand about advanced maths, and I know I couldn't do picasso even if I tried, although there is other art that people value that I see little value or ability in. Allthough with the art world I realise there are some artists that people don't see the value in until they are told that it is important. Obviously it can mean something to others. For me, If quizzed I would not be able to tell the difference between Derek Bailey and a 3 year old child who found a guitar in a cupboard, in that I completely fail to see the ability or the art. I understand that something can be so far outside my sphere of perception that I cannnot even begin to see it, so this could be entirely my issue. Or it could be an emporers new clothes or it could be just a big windup to persuade people there is something there. I litterally have no way of telling. So, for me, he has absolutely no value as an artist (and again note, this isn't love or hate - I see that Kanye West has value as an artist, even if I dislike what he does), but that has absolutely no bearing on how it is percieved by someone else or anything anyone else has to care about.

Maybe it would be too DSP heavy. None of the multiFX do what the SY1 does (although I am sure some MultiFX can do a few of the things that the SY1 can also do). The actual programing of what an SY1 does would be pretty tricky compared to the normal fare of DSP based units like time / amplitude / frequency effects.
