So I may have found an apartment.

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;17428054]I think I'm going to set up an appointment with the audiologist. Musicians earplugs are only $75/ear. Nice![/QUOTE]

Haha those sneaky petes.

Per ear :p. "Yes sir, these new leather gloves are only $2 a finger!"

"Haircuts! 1c per follicle."

Still, nothing actually wrong with the earplug pricing, do it to it.

its gonna be ace to walk around spoutning medical advice when i finish Pharmacy School

You could just do it anyway.

Never stopped me.

So I just spent another $600 today. I'm gonna buy myself out of life with music gear.

meh...

i already kinda do since i had to have alot of training on how drugs work etc when i was training for my Pharmacy Technician job

What are the side effects of simethicone?

Sigh, just lanced, drained, disinfected and covered a blister that just wouldn't go away on it's own. I hope this actually does it.

pee on it in the shower, that'll take care of it.

Some genuine advice would be nice, but sure, urine can't hurt.

get some triple-antibiotic ointment to put on it under the bandage. Let it chill covered for a few days, then uncover it, let it dry, and it should heal up pretty quick.

And more practical than a multi, I'd rather have a good distortion and chorus than to shitty ones and a plethora of other effects I never use.

Get a delay next man they're the most fun.

Eh, I wouldn't use it in a band situation. My multi had a few delays/reverbs I never used. The reason to get rid of it is because I don't really get any fun out of sitting around and noodling on it anymore.

To be honest there's barely ever a reason to use any effects on the bass in a band situation, it's just finding a use for the ones you want to use.

Yeah, distortion and chorus :p

Distortion is easily the easiest one to throw into a band situation. Chorus works well, a light phaser or something else similar works well when accenting the highs in a more melodic line.

Yeah, distortion is pretty easy to use. Just make sure you set its volume right so that it sits properly against the clean sound. A lot of people make the mistake of setting it too loud or too soft vs their clean sound and it either obliterates the mix on stage or is barely audible.

I have this Digitech stereo phaser but I don't play around with it much, the step effect is pretty tight though.

I'm liking this new OD model because it has a 2band EQ in it as well, living the dream. I can't wait to mess around on the chorus when it arrives though, I love chorus.

I've used my mate's ODB3 a fair bit, it's pretty good, you can go from very slight to very severe overdrive which is the thing to look for in that kind of pedal I think.

You can get some pretty lush sounds out of the CEB3 too.

What's the CEB3?

The chorus pedal.

I knew that.

Haha :p.

Yeah you'll like it.

I am certainly hoping so! Haha.

Meanwhile I just finished transposing the notes onto stave of the titular line of "I still call Australia home" for a friend who's gone to England.

My girl is going to be in town later tonight. Anybody else excited?

I need to take some family pictures for Funky's thread.
