Better in the room than being left in the car, surely?

I don't listen to much pop music, and the only music radio I ever tune to is Radio 3, but I do like this a lot To be honest I only discovered this track from this rather wonderful comedy version (David Armand)

I've only ever owned six basses: two of those were Peavey Milestone III's, so .......

There's a committee. They take various factors into account, such as mobility, continence, deafness, depth of contempt for "modern" music, tolerance of noise, tolerance of b/s and so forth. If you've not had the letter calling you for interview yet, you're probably ok for a while.

that's just what they want you to think.

Soma are certainly one of the more interesting manufacturers out there. I recently sold a Lyra-8 after I'd owned it a little over a year. Built like a tank. I used it to record weird space noises and textures for use in the space-rock band I play keys for, and it's great for that, but not really for much else. I have many hours of recordings from it that I can sample from to use live, and plenty of weird plug-ins so I can make many different versions of any given bit of the recordings, so it seemed like time to move it on.

I have a Digitakt, and the XLN XO vst (mainly for the great sample library and sample search facilities). I can't imagine wanting or needing anything else. For a while I was intrigued by the Soma Pulsar 23, but I watched a ton of YouTube videos on it and never saw one where anything I would describe as listenable music was produced using it, and so the fascination faded.

Gemma bought a set of strings from me. No issues, great comms, a pleasure to deal with. Recommended.

Heads up I have just posted a set of unused, unopened short-scale LaBella flatwounds in the marketplace
