  1. Mid fi clarinot I've been meaning to build for a while: [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/bobbass4k/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20150408_213000_zpsbugdscjd.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v502/bobbass4k/Mobile%20Uploads/20150408_213000_zpsbugdscjd.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/bobbass4k/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20150408_213011_zpsfxsjrotd.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v502/bobbass4k/Mobile%20Uploads/20150408_213011_zpsfxsjrotd.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Bit sloppy on the inside but it was a tight fit and it worked first time so I don't really care. First opto containing circuit I've built that worked first time too, they're usually fiddly bastards.
  2. [quote name='plunkrock' timestamp='1428330287' post='2740255'] I quite fancy trying my hand at making a GGG tuned muff, does anyone know if there is anywhere in the UK that sells an equivelant kit or do I just have to suck up the extra import charges? Cheers [/quote] Fuzzdog (formerly poodle) is the UK equivalent, I've never done of his kits but I've heard good things. Personally I don't like the GGG muff, I think the civil war is better for bass, with the appropriate bass mods, but most of the muff versions only differ in slight component values, and a lot of them were actually intended to sound the same. If you really wanted to do the GGG muff just check what values are different from the Poodle kit. I'd recommend doing a mids mod, you can either add a switch or a pot.
  3. Anyone know a good place to get LDR's? After low light resistance and super high dark resistance, something like 1K/10M would be ideal, bitsbox, ebay and my other usual goto's have been a bust.
  4. I don't get Blur, and by extension, Alex James. I just don't get it.
  5. There's a lot of bands in the increasingly meaningless "post-rock" categorization that have a huge influence from classical music and carry it a lot of it over in terms of structure and expression, if not necessarily obvious sonic aesthetics. Yndi Halda are one of my favourite bands, and to my ears, they make classical music, just with drums and guitars. And a violin: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBUEjrOI6kA[/youtube] There's also bands like "A Winged Victory For The Sullen" doing it a bit more obviously: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NySFyRdnqB8[/youtube]
  6. Bump for Meatbox
  7. Finally got one finished again. 2 days early too. Please forgive me for the fade out, I don't know what came over me. [url="https://soundcloud.com/bobbass4k/anisotropic"]https://soundcloud.com/bobbass4k/anisotropic[/url]
  8. Mines currently at 5:20, will I be facing the firing squad if I don't trim it down?
  9. Boompa Loompa
  10. My current working arrangement:
  11. Boomp
  12. D'oh, my late entry will be submitted shortly, because I suck at organisation.
  13. Bump for added trade interests
  14. Bump for SuperSynth
  15. The jacks are the wrong way round too, input on the left, output on the right. Personally I wouldn't go near them on that alone. It's just unnecessary.
  16. [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1422813004' post='2677062'] I'm too old to work in 8ths. But I can vacillate randomly between 4/4 and 5/4 to such an extent that the casual listener might think it's just out of time. However, I feel that said casual listener will have turned it off in disgust well before they'd reached any conclusions about the non-linearity of time, maaaan! [/quote] I'm thinking 5/4 too (well, 5/8), although there's also a 13/8 thing that I might try and work in. I WILL submit an entry this month. It will happen. Scouts honour*. I see a ghost train emerging from some haunted woods, so mine'll be dark and heavy, but still driving. * - I was never in the scouts.
  17. Bump from the dead
  18. Hopefully this means they'll sell off the old models at "discount" prices. Might treat myself to a Grande if they get cheap enough. [quote name='SingleMalt' timestamp='1421772315' post='2664827'] I'm with you on this. I built my own with wood, screws and some black spray paint I found in the shed, cost me about £15 and is the the size of a classic but it fits my kit perfectly. [/quote] As the pedaltrain site says, wooden ones just don't last on the road. I agree pedaltrains are overpriced but they definitely aren't snake oil.
  19. Back on the horse this month. Dirty, fuzz laden punk is going to happen.

  21. Mate can't make it anymore and girlfriend has plans so I've got a spare ticket for Mastodon at Manchester Academy on Monday (24th Nov). Face value is £22.50 so I'll let it go for an even £20 for the sake of avoiding awkward change. Too late to post now so I can meet outside the academy or in town somewhere on Monday.
  22. [quote name='Protium' timestamp='1405254384' post='2500080'] Read my rant in daily annoyances, Manchester gig sold out instantly and 2 days later people already advertising tickets for 5 times the face value [/quote] I tried to get tickets an hour after they went up, sold out. Can't believe they're playing Gorilla. Hopefully they'll take the hint and move it to a bigger venue.
  23. El Bumpo
  24. [b]4ms Tremulus Lune: [/b]It's the Dual LFO version with expression pedal input and buttloads of controls. In great but not perfect condition, the paint is chipped around the edges but it's purely cosmetic. [b]After £110 Posted Special Delivery.[/b] [b]Robot Factory Meatwad: [/b]I've ummed and aahed about parting with this, as it's the best filter I've ever had, but I'm just not using it's full potential, the Xerograph fulfills my modest filter needs at the moment, so it's time for this to go. I think this is an early one as it has hand painted graphics rather than silkscreened. This one doesn't have an effect loop, it has expression pedal input and an external trigger input for the envelope. In decent condition, some minor chipping around the edges but otherwise great.[b] [s]After £120 Posted Special Delivery [/s] SOLD[/b] [b]Markbass Super Synth: [/b]In absolutely pristine condition with box, manual and power supply. [b][s]After £160 Posted Special Delivery[/s]. SOLD.[/b] [b]DOD Meatbox: [/b]You all know what this is, thunderous octave/sub-harmonic/Uber EQ. In very good condition, some minor chipping on the top but otherwise excellent. Got it from sibob as broken and I've repaired it, now in perfect working order. I'm not looking to make a massive profit on it so I'm looking for [b][s]£120 Posted Special Delivery[/s]. SOLD.[/b] Board shot: Would consider trades for an SM57, or similar mic, plus cash, or maybe something else.
