[quote name='molan' timestamp='1415307854' post='2599154'] Umm, as a Fodera salesman, I should probably keep well clear of this thread [/quote] Ooh, so how do you become a Fodera salesman? Can anyone do it? Any jobs going? Go on - gissajob.

Looking at MU's sign up form now. Should have done it years ago, but hey...

Not an MU member. I did think that a music lawyer wasn't going to be cheap. As I said - no experience.

Mods; this might need to go in Off Topic - feel free to move it if you agree. I have composed a couple of electronica EP's over the past year or so and have been offered a contract to release and promote these EP's by an independent label. They've sent me a contract and part of it reads: [b][size=4][color=#000000]The Artiste acknowledges that the Artiste has been advised by the Company to seek independent legal advice from a lawyer with experience in the music industry with regard to the terms of this Agreement.[/color][/size][/b] So, with "The Artiste" being me, can anyone recommend a lawyer that fits the above description? I have no experience whatsoever with contracts of this type, and to ignore this advice doesn't sit well with me. Cheers

They don't actually work unless you slap them.... 😉

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1457090274' post='2995185'] I can see that working in Slipknot. Not my thing, but I've seen far, far worse designs. [/quote] Oh yes, me too. Despite the look of it, that bass is going to [i]sound[/i] amazing.

Yum. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3u99M-bYXY

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1457090090' post='2995179'] Yeah not for me either... [/quote] Love Status basses, but that is the first one I've seen that does nothing for me at all.

Bleurrggh. IMO.

[quote name='Graulges' timestamp='1456916389' post='2993441'] Good one, made me laugh. When did it come out? was it for a charity thing? [/quote] I'm pretty sure it was around 1990. Not a charity thing, one of the sketches from a series of French And Saunders. Classic.

My new covers band is under way. Trio. No drummer. Bass, guitar and keyboards, with programmed drum parts and some programmed bass parts. Going to be playing a bit of keyboards during the songs with the sequenced bass. New Order, Depeche Mode, OMD, Visage, Ultravox etc. Have a new found respect for Peter Hook's playing - never really[i] listened[/i] to him before, fun to play his parts. Quite excited, should be good.

BTW, I bought a new adapter to power this, with a 5 plug daisy chain. I knew that the socket on the pedal wouldn't fit so I also bought a plug tip converter, thinking it would be OK.

Thanks guys, might just stash it away and buy a new one...

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1456502970' post='2989760'] 2 possibilities spring to mind: - wrong polarity on the mains adaptor - if it's an early model with a 1/8in jack, that will be centre positive [/quote] 1996 model I think.

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1456504087' post='2989795'] I didn't realise 'Lost in space' means 'Isle of Wight'! [/quote] I might as well be...

Not in the near future, on the Isle of Wight, so it costs me £50 return for me and the car...

Soooo.....anyone want to buy an original DOD chorus pedal, with the original box....?

Edited original post - I want to daisy chain other 9v pedals to it.

I have an original DOD FX62 bass stereo chorus pedal which won't power up with a 9v adapter. The blurb says to us a 10v adapter but it obviously powers up with a 9v battery. I want to daisy chain other 9v pedals to it as well. Am I missing something or just being monumentally thick...?

If Bowie rated Lorde that much then she was probably the only logical choice. Other than just having Bowie's mic stand at the front of the stage and the band playing behind, without the vocals. Because really, who's going to be able to follow him? No-one.

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1456243767' post='2986980'] No problem, I'm glad to be of help . Have you got Transcribe software ? Get it if you haven't. It's free, and is amazing. You can isolate sections, phrases etc, and slow them down. It's really useful for parts like this. [url="http://www.seventhstring.com"]http://www.seventhstring.com[/url] [/quote] Cheers mate, will give it a look.

Thank you Ambient, it was me who was on the verge of a bass/window interface trying to learn this for a new project, this might well help.

If Kanye didn't exist, the world would be a lot less entertaining. In a "can't wait to see what utter horse $hite he comes out with next, cos he's obviously deluded on a biblical scale" kind of way. More power to ya Mr West, looking forward to the next instalment. 😁

8/10 by guessing most of em. Which, by default makes me metal as f**k.
