    Something like that would look great as an inlay at the 12th fret. And The Galaxy Bass would be a cool name. There are a few astrophotographers on BC.

    Settles in to watch master at work. 🙂 A quick Google about the number 63 and it's applicability to naming OTT bass guitars came up with this on Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/63_(number) Amongst the many options: M63 is the Sunflower Galaxy, maybe a bit hippy. Element 63 is Europium, will be considered political. The sterile offspring of a horse and a donkey has 63 chromosomes, not an application analogy to Andy's builds. I reckon there will only be 42 discernible tones, so you could still call the bass Douglas.

    Not in the Baptists 🙂 "Proof of Concept". But I shall forever now read it as "Piece of Cauliflower", which will make future project plans much more entertaining. Thanks @stewblack 👍

    Hadn't noticed they were videos, logged in from a secure works PC (on a very, very tedious conference call) and it just shows the static image, not as a link. Will check out later.

    Please post some sound clips!

    We intend to, but I wanted a POC first.

    Amen to that! We have so far purchased nothing of significance. The laptop running OBS belonged to the youth worker who left in May, the software is free, the phones for cameras are my kids' old ones. I bought a used USB audio interface from here to go between the desk and the PC, and just got another MIDI controller for £30 so I can have mine back. Plus some cables and stuff the total outlay is probably £130 to date. The Mifi box was unused from someone else too. So cheap and effective. But we do have key-person dependencies on me to operate the OBS and another person who controls the YT stream.

    It can be good enough. A single ½s glitch on a feed over an hour is acceptable for a church YT feed, if not the BBC. We had terrible WiFi in the sanctuary using the guest network and also awful network speed even wired. The solution was a dedicated 4G MiFi hub placed close to the window with a wired connection to a set of Mesh cubes all round the church. Rock solid 60Mbps down and 11 Mbps up. We have persuaded Virgin that they can connect us to the new cabinet 20 yards along the road, rather than 100 yards across a main road, so have full fibre due in the new year to remove the 4G dependency.

    Do let us know how you get on with the Osmo gimbals. At the moment we have a one-eyed camera operator called Paul. We will probably not replace him, but swap Dave's old phones for proper cameras 😉 On another thread you asked about MIDI drum pads. I was going to report on the Akai Lpd8 I bought, but it's never been used as drum pads. I used it as a DAW control and it's now at church in service as a controller for OBS.

    It has four strings, other than that I have no idea! Do tell 🙂

    Lovely bass, hope the new owner likes it.

    I have an active bass, so my existing (albeit rather high quality) passive DI boxes are perfect. And I bought the church a Behringer BT121 to deal with the passive basses. But those AR-133 are really good.
  14. Richard R
    I don't need that DI Box. Yes I do. No I don't. Yes I do. No I don't. Gaaaahhhh!!!!

    Can't we claim to be key workers? Not always the right key in all cases mind you.. Seconded!
  16. Richard R
    Alas not about the gentleman from Yes, I was mislead!!

    Advice on cameras would be welcome here too. We are doing our first livestream on Sunday, but are running with phones as IP cameras for the first two services before we purchase anything.

    Poles Apart, and Lost for Words. Both about Roger Waters, on The Division Bell.

    Like the Orchard logo a lot, and the tweaks suggested by @Fishman would give it a bit more polish. I looked up Aukrug, so I guessed Orchard would be the brand name. Very cool and definitely different to the curly scripts we are used to.

    Just bought a USB audio interface from @thebrig. Despatched really quickly, arrived exactly as described and very well wrapped. A pleasure to buy from.
  21. Richard R
    Very nice indeed! 👍
  22. Richard R
    Great resource, thank you. More hours of my life I'm not going to spend actually practicing!

    Absolutely! Not so much with music but 100% with lyrics: "A predictable rhyme is a waste of my time Can't you write any better, you peasant? You treat us like sheep with your lyrics so cheap. Obnoxious, naff, and repellant" 4/10, Must try harder

    Lovely bass. 👍 Now the one thing that nobody else of the forum will tell you is this: before you buy another one, learn to play the one you've got!
  25. Richard R
    Correct! I presume you recognised those terrible knees 🤣
