[quote name='keefbaker' timestamp='1457966744' post='3003440'] Of course this guy is the all time winner [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnY7UH6z72w[/media] Phew... fixed [/quote] I was going to point out that the Bass player and Marimba players are all left handed... But someone in the comments has mentioned that the film is backwards. In the early Facebook/YouTube days, he was often making an appearance. So yes, the all time winner. EDIT: No Xylo

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1457695660' post='3001004'] At this level it's pointless to just rehash the records. That's what cover bands do. The artists live show has to be so much more. Dynamics and arrangement do this. The arrangements and performances fit GK and the songs like a glove. Count me as a fan of this "overblown", exciting and lively style of playing and performance. [/quote] Absolutely. -
If you can get to hear a pair of PreSonus E5's, have a listen. Outstanding for the price (about £200). Product Page. https://www.presonus.com/products/Eris-E5 Review (you won't find many bad reviews, if any). http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/oct13/articles/presonus-eris.htm One of my boys has a pair and they sound very good.

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1457656356' post='3000797'] Why would anyone take LSD in the 90s. LSD was one of our 60s things. Blue [/quote] Excellent.

I agree with julesb, about the sound and use of headphones. Great playing all round, top stuff.

[size=4]As deepbass5, 40 years worth of depping and regular functions/weddings. During the 80' and 90's I worked for a couple of well known high society function band leaders. Anything thing from six piece up to twenty piece bands, gigs world wide for very well know celebs, private parties for royalty, political gatherings, corporate trade shows etc. The Rhythm section often had to play through the dinner courses, the hours would be very, very long. Some weeks there might even be seven nights of work, including Jewish gigs, West End tea dances, strict Tempo comps. Small band afternoon gigs in London Hotels would pop up as well, so you might have two gigs in a day. Always top players and singers on the gigs, so usually very enjoyable. Some of the overseas gigs where a riot socially. [/size]

Double Albums That Work and the One That Don't

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Works (for me). Songs In the Key of Life always divides folk, but works for me. Although I am not a great Who fan, I thought Quadrophenia worked. All Jazz albums work -
Some Classical Brass and Woodwinds for Kontakt (Freebies). Sound nice and would be good for layering as well. http://alpineproject.wix.com/main

If so, a really good deal going on here for REX or RMX Expansion packs, or you can get both on an extra deal. http://vstbuzz.com/deals/96-off-ultimate-rmx-30k-bundle-worth-2400/

If you are talking about transcriptions, this site is good. Very accurate parts and plenty of style variation. http://thebassment.info/transcriptions.html

App. Disappeared from iPad and iPhone ...

If it is this, looks like you have to go the US App Store. http://www.macworld.com/article/1153892/looptastichd.html Website. http://www.djpuzzle.com/looptasticloops.html -
A couple of things. The Presonus Studio One V3 software that come with the Interface, does not have support for VST fx and instruments, you have to pay extra for that. Although it comes bundled with a couple of internal synths and some fx. The iPad App works as a controller and was just updated yesterday. So was Studio One, and it's a pretty impressive upgrade (my boys have it). TouchOSC for iPad will control Reaper (or any DAW for that matter), not sure if there are many templates out there, but it's pretty easy to set them up. I have done this with Cubase and it works a treat. http://hexler.net/software/TouchOSC (£5.00) You would need the midi bridge as well, along with the software for your Puter (both fee links at the bottom of the above page link). TouchOSC is one of the best controller apps about. Excellent for Midi cc# controlling, along with audio of course.

I think it all stemmed from when Nathan East was playing while he was dancing. He certainly played on pretty much all the studio stuff. And when someone was playing for him, wasn't it because he had some illness? The gig with Nate East on. http://youtu.be/mfagqCcyE6g
