    Hi Recording Forum Massive, I am editing the dreaded lockdown videos. It is amazing what you can achieve with reverb and auto-tune. Anyway, a problem I am running into again and again is syncing audio. It comes in on phone camera videos. I can strip the audio off and drag stuff together so that everyone starts in the same place but then parts seem to stretch or contract so that they go out of sync with each other. I am thinking frame rates, . I am thinking sample rates. I am thinking unknown unkonwn rates. But nothing seems to make it work. Am I missing something obvious here? Logic tells me that the original frame rate is different from the set rate and then I keep the original rate and weirdness happens. Humph, what to do? TIA

    I must learn to express myself properly. What I was trying to say was I will take the rest of the picks please

    They are old so obviously have THE TOOOOOONE FOR DAAAAAYYYSSS thing going on. It's funny, there is not much kit around which has made me radically change my mind about it since the 1st time round. If it was lame back in the day it most certainly has not changed in the intervening 30 years. I am not refering specifically to this model of bass. For absolute clarity, I am just discussing "old=better".

    Thanks. I was looking for this info.

    I guess there is only one way to find out. I have just bought one.

    I am thinking of buying one off Ebay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MiNi-5string-ukulele-electric-bass-neck-thru-Ukelele-Uke/363051228775?hash=item54878a1e67%3Ag%3AX98AAOSwH0Vb5F06&LH_All=1) and messing with it to make a very small Bass Guitar. Do any of you have actual direct experience with these? I can live with rough edges because my supreme lutherie skills are up to it. I own sandpaper.

    Can I have the EH one?

    This is the kind of thread which gets me thinking stupid thoughts like "I could build a bass around this". I think I need to get out more.

    I must admit that coming from a DB background I have never been able to get the left hand comfy on an EUB.

    Of course, if anyone wants to buy it for £400, I could be persuaded.

    The Bergantino IP310 has been sold. I am sad, but it is for the best. We live in strange times but I am not using this. This is the cab that has seen off all comers for the past decade and more for me. 3x10 and really nice horn + 1000 watt plate amp. Yes. 1000. It goes all the way down. It laughs at all other active cabs I have tried. And I have tried. It fights with all the drummers. It has headroom in an addictive style. I went through a phase when I thought that all preamps sounded great. I then realised that they all sounded great through this. If it is all that and more then why sell? My ears are knackered and I cannot play without 27db plugs. There is no point in me being able to generate this level of SPL and LF extension cos I do not get to enjoy it. I will not pretend it is light. It is not (circa 80lbs, now you ask) but it is on good wheels and compact enough to do a one bod lift. But once you plug in you forget about the weight and just swim in that pillow of molten chocolate goodness. I am aware that that was a mixed metaphor, but it covers all the angles. Not that there are angles in this sound. Just lushness. Compact 1 driver cabs are great. Super efficient drivers are great. But a bigger cab with more surface area and a FAT power amp has a certain je ne sais quoi. Carriage will not be Hermes @ £5.60 so we will split it. I am in Bangor, North Wales. I do not have to sell it and will not be sad to use it now and again if I keep it. My price is firm. Fancy it you know you do.

    Every programme which pitches to the people who hold the purse strings to have a band on have a union approved rate in their budget. If individual production companies try to rip off musicians that is not within the control of the BBC at that moment. I presume that that production company have been told that this was not cool. Some production companies in Wales have long had a non union rate and a union rate. They offer the 50% rate until you mutter MU and then the magic happens. UK PLC knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. This is not just muscians and being paid. It is the society we live in. It is the society we, as a country, have chosen.
