  1. That would be correct Mr Smalls I had this in my plan all along , and have already sowed the seeds ......as it were!
  2. I’ll have another listen tomorrow to whittle my choices down
  3. For least faff and to get a good feel for a tune I purely play the song on my phone or you tube through headphones , using an acoustic bass is plenty to hear what I’m doing .
  4. Real bummer to post here but .... In general, if your house was built before 1999 just try and be confident that the walls don’t have any sort of asbestos insulation board (AIB) any where that you are likely to be drilling . just completed my awareness renewal and the death rates from asbestos diseases are not likely to peak for another 15 years. it is a total bastard and there should be a national outcry , it is everywhere and really doesn’t get the press and coverage it needs.
  5. I remember having GAS for a bass that rarely comes up used , but I couldn’t justify new prices. I saw one on here , offered full asking price and waited , only to be told he was keeping it . That annoyed the f**k out of me , I can’t contemplate how angry anyone would be having it pulled after paying for it.
  6. Does this happen at gigs, the rehearsal room , different venues etc or does it happen in a particular environment . even where you are standing can influence the frequencies you hear Daft thought is the kick drum tuned close to 41hz and influencing your sound. If the only time the issue manifests itself is in the presence of the band , I would be surprised if the issue was with the bass
  7. Ok Then I'm in, very simple this one, Old school
  8. That Graeme, is a bloody big party in such a tiny house , love it , i've missed these from you , excellent
  9. That's great that Douglas , the story unfolds really well , very clever
  10. I've had a couple of days , a little inspiration and ......and .....and........ I've learnt to sing* , Oh yes * well it's relative I guess , I will do a bit of turd polishing tomorrow, but it is all recorded
  11. Mrs Lurks was watching (seemingly endless iPlayer repeats of) the greatest dancer, and the turn vines on to sing a song . Mrs Lurks asks why the singer has an ear piece in ? Durh i said , it is so she can hear the music and pitch her voice accurately , it is called monitoring and then explained loads more in my inimitable way Mrs Lurks followed up , why don’t they do this in Musical theatre then oh ! Thats me stumped , I had to conclude that they were far better trained ! Is that right ?
  12. My life you guys are quick off the mark this month , I know it’s a short month but I haven’t even had time to plug the bass in yet
  13. The middle leg , chester to Ludlow (ish) is doable by me in about a month or so
  14. Excellent , I am sure everyone approaches things differently , but if you struggle to get inspiration for the second half , copy and paste the first , call it 2 verses, put your lyrics over it and you are done
  15. Try the balanced leads jack cables first , I get the hiss if my piano is also connected to the inputs with ‘mono’ unbalanced jack leads , when I remove them from the interface input the noise disappears . i will one day change these leads for balanced
  16. Well done @Dad3353 the cream rising to the top young man
  17. I wonder how many people pull the trigger in the evening after having a few bevvies and wake up regretting the evenings decisions
  18. I don’t live in Ludlow but I know a BCer who has a business based there , I am paying him a visit in the week I’ll PM for contact details
  19. I could get it to Ludlow in the week. If anyone can do the next bit, let me know , but I’ll have to pick it up by Sunday afternoon , if you get fully stuck , I’ll pick it up and we could arrange courier collection from mine.
  20. I think all BCers should wear a Christmas hat , or at least a hat , that way we could all be just a bit unsure ......
  21. My midi keyboard is fine , but the app won’t talk to the computer the computer does not have Bluetooth and the phone won’t talk midi to it via cable
  22. Cheers but I am trying to be too clever and use the kit I’ve already got i don’t need more stuff cluttering the room so I think I can do without for a while
