  1. Very true. It's odd how the 'free market' can apply to everything but people's labour.
  2. Some of you young people, surely?
  3. It will be interesting to see how cross border cooperation suffers. Before I retired, I worked for a company that traded with places in Canada, just across the border from the US. The US Business was exempted from registering for tax in Canada, whether by official or unofficial means. The future of that arrangement must surely be in doubt. The cost of maintaining/establishing that registration will be sizeable (and not built into the pricing rate-card).
  4. The journey continues. I have three band templates, making sure band members have the same channels when they are in more than one band. No channel strips on an XR18. I have used the presets where Behringer have provided them. We'll fine tune in the rehearsal studio. I feel that a penny has dropped and the controls seem really quite intuitive now. I'm very much a novice when it comes to compression and gates but the basics are there. I love the ability to save channel settings and copy them into a new template.
  5. Maybe you get the chance to take the 'polaroids'.
  6. I play in three bands with one guy and I can save his channels and copy into the other band snapshots. Brilliant.
  7. Getting to grips with the XR18 and loving it. So much control and flexibility. Pretty much on top of scenes, channels and snapshots. What a great bit of kit.
  8. Maybe Trump will ultimately take another leaf out of his hero's playbook and see whather or not gravity applies to him.
  9. ... or spell it (sorry). No offence intended.
  10. This is a pair of TX10 speakers (140 watts rms) and a single TX210 (150 watts rms) that were used as vocal monitors. THE TX210 HAS GONE. They do a great job and have been 100% reliable, There are no covers but don't look bad. Priced to sell, as opposed to being any reflection on their condition/performance. They have never needed to be thrashed and have been carefully looked after. Collection preferred (obviously) but happy to do a bit of driving to meet up. With the more expensive unit gone. Pick up the two TX10s for £50. Two excellent monitors for 50 quid. Any questions, just ask.
  11. It must be a nightmare for US Customs guys to process import entries, Duty rates changing on a daily basis.
  12. I've often wondered what difference any of these variations makes. Can anyone explain?
  13. Absolutely this. B profile for me too.
  14. Indeed. It's difficult to see this latest action as anything other than spite.
  15. Finally got wireless contact with the mixer and established an outline template for my main band. I'll create further templates for other scenarios. Getting started has had its frustrations but the future looks very exciting, in terms of what is possible.
  16. I'm thinking Harry Worth, from the comments.
  17. I am not a moderator, but making (what could be termed) personal remarks about people, whether they be members or politicians, surely pushes this even more firmly into the political sphere that is banned here. It's an important discussion so maybe it can take place without any insults?
  18. Well, the XR18 has arrived. A lot of $odding about to get connected to it. Even now I can connect to the external router via ethernet but no joy with WiFi. I could live without, but I want the other guys to have control over their monitors.
  19. Meanwhile, all humanitarian aid to Gaza is stopped so the deal can be renegotiated.
  20. Interestingly (and I'll have to pop round and kill you all after this), when I was employed in the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (called the secret branch of the MoD in the papers), I was sat next to a guy who was desinging missiles for use in 30 years time. This was back in the mid 90's and it was said that the future battlefield would be about (what they called) micro planes. Small planes with a wingspan of 6" or so. That may not be entirely the case but the rise of the drone clearly indicates that train of thought.
  21. They were all blonde to begin with.
  22. Rather more reasonable when I bought it!!
  23. Not my old one. I wondered if it was going to be 137800.
  24. They are both echoing what Trump said. One of them suggested Ukraine was kidnapping people to serve in the army, among other things.
  25. I'm watching Newsnight and I cannot believe what the US correspondents are saying.
