Ok I've just signed up for the 30 day free trial on Drumeo. My wife's a singer so she can hopefully get some use out of Singeo making it worthwhile keeping the sub. I might even be brave and post a couple of progress videos. 😆

I've just noticed that the Drumeo sub also gives you access to Singeo, Guitareo and Pianote. Definitely makes it worth the sub.

I think there's a 30 day free trial. Probably worth at least doing that and seeing if it's going to be useful enough to carry on. 😉

Yeah Drumeo looks really good but it's a bit pricey with the monthly sub. I'm ideally looking for something more akin to the TalkingBass model, where you buy the course then you own it for life and can do it in your own time.

Good advice. Thanks Doug. 👍

I bought a fairly decent electronic drum kit a couple of years ago for a recording project that never really got off the ground. Nothing much happening with my bass playing at the moment and I've always fancied my chances on the drums and can just about hold a very basic beat. The problem is I need a structured approach and although there's lots of good resources on YouTube etc it's all a bit scattergun. Does anyone have any recommendations for any structured online drumming courses? I've found one on Udemy that seems to be decently rated. But just wondering if anyone has any first hand experience. Unfortunately in person lessons are a no go for several reasons. Cheers.

Unfortunately hidden behind a paywall.

I actually really like the look of that. Although I have no desire to take on a "project".

Is it the one that goes, plinky plinky plonk twang?

I've never owned one of their basses. But I had one of their Les Paul style guitars and it was absolutely superb!

I'd never actually seen the Led Zep Live Aid performance until yesterday after this thread piqued my curiosity. Yup. It's bad!

Hardly worth looking into the technical details on such a budget instrument. 😉

A bit of both. In marketing bigger always sounds better. But as I understand it, there's no industry standard way of measuring power. Even RMS calculations vary across manufacturers.

Can you print me a Rickenbacker? 😂

Wow! I don't know which is worse. The looks or the price.

If all else fails there are at least three Cash Converters (pawn shops) in Leeds. I can guarantee they will all have a bass or two of some sort. You could buy one from there and sell it back to them the next day. You might lose a few quid but would probably work out about the same as renting one. They may even be able to arrange some kind of rental agreement for 24 hours.

Overrated - gigging Underrated - staying home relaxing with your feet up watching the telly.

11000 Watts and the sliders don't get past number 1. That's some headroom. 😂

Looks like I will be remaining in blissful ignorance then. I'm done with farcebook.

Does anybody have a copy of it that doesn't link to Farcebook?

Hardly a surprise. There's nothing "real" about Madonna anymore.

As the forum is search engine searchable a lot of traffic is probably driven here from people googling things. Only wanting to know something specific but not interested in joining the forum. I do the same occasionally with the other bass forum over the pond. I'll read through the odd thread until I get the answer in looking for, but I would have no interest in joining.
