OK , mine is about as good as I can get it I reckon , I had some great help and advice with this from Andy (Erax sound) wolverinebass which enabled me to focus back on some of the fundamentals . Enjoy

I guess you can add on the monitoring latency as well , though I don’t know how much that plays out

I’ll go and do some googling then

Many thanks @Dad3353 I understand the theory , it’s actually the thought of doing it , and doing it right , I suspect I have no idea of the actual way to do this 🤷‍♂️

^ There is half the problem , people speaking in a foreign language 😉

That’s nice , thank you for that

This is scary stuff It is on my list of things to be worried about , I know I will need to be doing a new computer install at some point , but I am so hoping it goes relatively smoothly. good luck with it , hope it goes well

I love playing with that sort of stuff , but if I’m honest, I can spend far to much time searching for the holy grail to make my stuff sound half decent , but what I really need to do is play better and learn to use the kit I’ve got properly. I’m taking the time to actually try that for this months challenge , but I’ll never have a singing voice , which tends to make a mockery of the whole thing

I’ve got loads of the ones in there already , if you watch their pages or have bought something you will get with offers. the bits I got were almost given away, I can’t believe anyone has actually ever paid full price for anything they have

Ah man , you have the time wax lyrical, look at things differently, generally openly , keep your own time , and have family close. I overlook some stuff granted , but at the moment I have time, I hope to use it wisely, this is all.

I am learning to love your life , via mine currently 😍

Well in Douglas , not yet listened as I haven’t got mine sketched out yet , having said that I am a touch confused. being the way I am , I learn shed loads from this challenge , and one thing I do is try and research the photos. today I have learned that heathers tend to flower in the autumn in the UK , and while I suspect that spring is on the mind , I am perplexed. Being as such, I fear the denominator in this is the countryside , and that to me screams either folk or ...er ...country scary stuff 😓

OMFG just picked up the acoustic guitar to bash out some chords to warm up and this covid hands washing thing has left me with next to no fingertips........ OW

Woah the big hitters might be back on board this month. excellent

Well done Fingers , great one , I hope you’ve got that picture ready , most of Europe is on lockdown waiting for your inspirational picture . no pressure then

some good ideas thinking on. Maybe Paul could rig up some contentious title to next months voting to attract some clickbait

Not sure about that , but maybe one of the challenge rules for bass, could be that you should not be using a 5 string or more , after all Jaco only needed 4

you could pick lots of parts from it for US TV series in their day, Its great , just a bit of tweaking is all

I will of course always defer to you on all things recording , but when I was at that point , better quality sound was nowhere near my wish list , just getting the f******g thing working consistently would have been fine , oh and latency , both ways , oh boy . On starting up I spent far more time figuring out why I couldn’t get sounds on to my computer , recorded and back to some speakers than Mick at his softest . then I bought a scarlet 2i2 and everything just fell into place and I could actually think about the music

Ah bugger , if you tap up @fingers211 he might give you a heads up on the picture he will pick for next month 😉 this glib and facetious attempt at humour will probably come back to bite me

I spent a bit of time trying to use work arounds , if you really have no choice , try it, but I would certainly get the bit of kit that is designed to do the job you need it for, it saves a lot of heartache!

It’s working now , ace

I don’t know if @Skol303 can edit the poll, it closes on Tuesday , you can always post it anyway

When you get to start hearing that you have recorded your own swearing , you have pretty much cracked it

Keep your eye on the guide to recording at the top of the forum , full of info , just be patient , you will take one step forward and 2 steps back on more than one occasion , but once you start getting results , you’ll be wearing a proper smile
