Silvia Bluejay Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Will the BCBaton be in the area at the time? Would be great if Guy Pratt could make the meetup and also play the baton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfoxnik Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1373561206' post='2139100'] And can I suggest a workshop - no idea of it is a good idea but can someone explain how the actual Flip a multi-effect pedal can be programmed?

tayste_2000 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Just had a quick chat with Matamp, if I can gome down (in my Mate's van) I'll swing by the factory and grab a load of the demo stock for people to try if you guys want, they've got quite a few prototype cabs lying around and maybe just maybe I can sneak the proto hybrid out of there (no promises though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmo Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) Do people have to bring something to attend? I only have a Warwick Fortress Rockbass and a 50 watt Eden amp, so nothing of any interest. Oh, I am still learning as well, so can`t play anything Edited July 12, 2013 by timmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvia Bluejay Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Out of curiosity, why do people refer to the plural of Status basses as Statii, when it should actually be Stati?

EssentialTension Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1373645974' post='2140185'] Out of curiosity, why do people refer to the plural of Status basses as Statii, when it should actually be Stati? [/quote] I've always wondered where the double i came from too. Especially given that the Latin singular [i]status[/i] has the Latin plural [i]status[/i] as it is a u-stem not an o-stem. Meanwhile, the English plural of status is statuses. Of course, the owners of Statuses can call their basses whatever they like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvia Bluejay Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I imagined they didn't mean to follow the Latin 5th declension (bo-ring!), but Stati would look a little less odd. Come to think of it, that's probably why they chose the weird version! We all noticed it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
