    [quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' post='556708' date='Jul 30 2009, 11:57 PM']One of my favourite bass solos is in a track called Friends & Strangers by Dave Grusin. It is a fretless player (don't know who) but just a lovely solo. Would love to be able to play like that one day!![/quote] +1...a very lyrical solo indeed. That player my friend was a very young Marcus Miller. Marcus never seems to get much of a mention for his fretless playing [F.O.R] But his fretless playing is up there for sure. Garry

    Sounds a bit sim to my single cut five stg without the maple board that Robbie made for me about 3 years ago. My neck has the same dimensions as the Marcus Miller Jazz 5. Just fab to play. Good luck with the build. [attachment=29917:RIM_1.jpg] Garry

    Have you tried this... [url="http://www.propellerheads.se/substance/index.cfm?fuseaction=get_article&article=tutorials"]http://www.propellerheads.se/substance/ind...ticle=tutorials[/url] Might be some... I use Cubase as the host then rewire Ableton into that, with no problems. I have in the past used Cubase as a host and rewired Reason into that, once again no problems. It could be a GB problem.

    Good grief i think i remember playing this axe in the Bass centre [1989].. I practically lived in that place every day, and the pub around the corner.. Great Basses... Have a bump on me.... almost tempted myself but i am trying to unload stuff, not get more.! Garry

    Of course locking in with the Drummer is important. But it is just as important you know what you doing on the Tune front. It might be worth contacting the guy in charge and getting a clue as to what you are jamming. An experienced guy would just erm..'Jam'. But if you are feeling vulnerable with that side of it and have trouble with busking... Then just locking in with the kit or watching various bits of the kit wont really help. [ unless you know the tunes] Its really just down to a bit of preparation.... i would think, Garry

    [quote name='arabassist' post='546125' date='Jul 21 2009, 10:40 AM'][attachment=29316:Chords.JPG] Any suggestions? Cheers[/quote] Do you have a sequencer? If so... put your double stops into the sequencer. Then add a Bass note to the double stops. Your choice of note, I have just done this [ on your behalf... hope you dont mind] And some interesting things happen with your double stop's sequence. You really can make most things work with some experimenting using different inversions / moving Bass notes. Give it a go. Garry

    [quote name='OldGit' post='545440' date='Jul 20 2009, 04:30 PM']Cool, is that Computer Music Monthly or something like that?[/quote] Yep, sure is. Sorry about that. CM saves you spending money [well for the £6/7.00] Sound wise, they are the same [DAWS]...Just 0's and 1's... It's the sound/audio card that generates the sound, so you will need a reasonable sound card. Thats another thing ... Garry

    And dont forget the Computor Magazine with a free DVD [Monthly] Comes with Sequencer, drum synths, a Sampler, all kinds of other free synths and FX plug ins, Tutorials, and tons of one hit samples and loops. About 6 or 7 squids. Well worth a punt. Garry
