lovely tone (and playing_)

elixir rool...

does the XR 18 have the ability to record direct to an SD card or memory stick? We had one years ago so I can't remember. We now use the Zoom L20 and that lets you record 20 separate tracks straight to SD or memory stick in the desk or via cable to your DAW.

Had the standard, liked it but sold it as I never used it gigging. Toneprint variations were pretty wide and interesting. Tracked well on my passive jazz. Now I have a zoom B1Four, small footprint and loads of other effects besides an Octaver.

pedalboard and IEM's at those size venues.

ah ok, weirdly I just bought a mic mechanic too!

I bought one for my son as he's into electronica, DJ'ing, dance music etc. I had no idea of all its capabilities! I may have to "borrow" it when he comes home next week

not yet but I've only had mine a couple of weeks and I run it off a power brick. Why do you want to use batteries? Any advantages?

what happens if your laptop crashes or the battery runs out? wouldn't the whole band be compromised?

Rectal smegma and Brutal sphincter would be on my must see list...

I got my lad the Arturia minilab. I know you don't want small keys but I believe they do larger ones as well. Apparently the keys action is better on the Arturia range ( so i saw on Youtube FWIW) He's blown away with it (he's into electronica and dance music and studying a degree in MT at Bristol uni) I gave him my old M Audio controllers and the the new Arturia and Novation stuff blows that out of the water Do any of the new controllers still have MIDI DIN? https://www.arturia.com/products#hybrid-synths

when i saw your budget, the Kali LP6's were the first thing i also thought of..

just bought a zoom B1 Four from Paul. What a great guy, he even posted it before I sent the money! Top communication and a very friendly transaction, highly recommended!

is that recorded live? )Sounds great btw). I see the studio booth shots. Are the band miming back to a previously recorded take? Top playing

Dads...that was me!

nor does he..

great sound and that horn section...

yes, as above, I added another 8 GB to my 8 GB laptop in a spare slot, same RAM card/type, works fine now as 16GB. Easy and cheap to do.

wrong time of year, most pubs around here start booking for the following year this September you'll need youtube video links of past performances if possible. Failing that, record some rehearsals so they can see you can play to a decent standard.

so much disposable income! one 75 precision (home practise) one custom jazz (for gigging) but the world would be a boring place if thats all we had available.

Completely agree. Our guitarist and singer haven't got much money or property if we were to be sued. It would all come down on me and the drummer. PLI is essential IMO

We've had loads of different lighting setups over the years. Now we have it down to a bagful of something similar to these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154899833612?hash=item2410bfe30c:g:kdsAAOSwWMBiL~6O with spring metal clamps so we can attach them to anything, usually the support poles for the FOH speakers and angle them how we like, at the singer, the guitarists fingers (!), angle up at the drum kit, on the back band logo etc. We also put a few behind the band on poles. Whole thing takes 5 minutes. I also put a couple of these behind the band (as they're so bright) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363806226888?hash=item54b48a79c8:g:TnsAAOSw-zxiXTDf I'm not a fan of sound to light ( a bit school disco!) so fades are better, but to be honest we just leave the colours static now and let the moving heads to all the work. I've got enough to do playing the damn bass! A small haze machine also adds to the effect (if you're allowed to use one by the venue)

if Grumpy played Rics...
