Hello all, Wondering if there is any advice out there for an iMac audio interface? For rehearsal to tunes on the iMac and ideally to try out an online rehearsal through something like Skype. I don't need anything complicated, literally just a jack input and the ability to talk online at the same time. I am quite keen to get into the various rehearsal software tools mentioned on here too... Any recommendations from current users?

Dunc just purchased my iPhone, paid super fast and let me know it arrived safely.... Would deal with again. Cheers Dunc!

The Dimazio site did the same, sounds like i need a bit of understanding help me out...

[quote name='Number6' timestamp='1449779162' post='2926825'] He added a certain "I don't know what" imo. [/quote] he didn't know what either…

He got further than me in success, but so has Trump, and he has a mosaic on Facebook of as headshot made entirely of Be***nds. Its not what you got, its how you exploit it….

OK, looks like i need a new set of pickups in my Warwick SS2, thought it was the preamp, WD music in kent took a look and worked it out to be the bridge PU. its an '87 so has the original active EMGs, i want to replace like for like, as this may not happen, i have looked around other options (and from web information on web forums) decided Bartolini would be a good choice. However, Im finding their website a little confusing!!!! they are stating that all their PU's are passive, however, various forum threads state they can be used. How does that work? I even called EMG in california today, got straight through (great), but had a little trouble with the dead pan attitude (not so great), probably me. Opinions on best choice for an '87 Warwick SS2 would also be welcomed!

If I have to change it, I'd like something that has tight lows no harsh mids and naturally some top, I like to keep it two band. Any suggestions? I have heard good things from the tone pump, just not sure whats best as I never experiment with preamps. Maybe I should!

Thanks chaps, so not too clued up on this type of thing, if my pickups are active, does the affect the type of preamp I need to get?

Do you have any magic beans?

Hello all, I have an 87 stage 2 streamer, the preamp is faulty as there is pretty bad signal interference. I do not think it is the pots, I believe it is the actual preamp circuit, the little black box with the gain pot. It has the EMG pickups. Are these preamps available still? If not, what can I change it for that will keep the sound authentic? I preamp appears to be a sealed unit, so presume not repairable. Your opinions and previous experience would be much appreciated!!! Thanks, Andrew

Welcome, from a fellow lurker (as yet to do an intro)!

Damn they were good, not a weak link amongst them. Well thought out gig, tight as the tightest thingy you could imagine! As for bass, sat in the mix beautifully, tasteful licks and nailed a great sound out of a series of p basses. Only one without a solo spot mind. Any others there? thoughts?

about to kick off!
