Gonna order that on saturday when I get payed. Should be good, I can't wait to experiment with it.

Everytime i get paid now I blow it all on something almost straight away - like last pay check I bought a Black Panther snare then had no money for a month, now this, I give into myself too easy..[/QUOTE]

That looks VERY similar to what I have.

*Note: That's not the same model I have, mine isn't on their site. Only difference is 2 less inputs and different switch positions. Mine's an 424MKII*
You can do a lot with it, just takes some knowledge of it, playing around, etc.

See the MAJOR difference mic placement and EQ adjustment can make? All 4 songs recorded using the same mics on the same instruments at the same levels, but on "Coffin" and "Alone Again" they were poorly placed, while on "Hold it Down" and "the pretty song" they were placed a lot better and thus sound MUCH better to the ear.



:D

*EDIT*
I found a picture of what I have haha. It's big sorry

Win A Rabbit 09-22-2005 08:19 PM

well i just had a nice 4 hour nap after school, it was just what i needed. i was exhausted all day, i couldn't pay attention to anything. here's my rant, a response to a feminist piece we read in class. It was supposed to be written about why i don't want a wife, but i didn't really write about wives, just responded to feminists:

[QUOTE=sic]Why I Don't Want a Wife

I belong to that classification of teens. I am a teen. In a world where women demand respect and power, while at the same time, they b'itch about any moment in their day where they are forced to lift a finger, the feminist approach to equality and recognition dies quickly. Wives will find as many possible ways to word their responsibilities to distract you from the fact that there are only 3 things that the women, particularly the woman in the essay I am responding to, do: look after the house, the children, and me. That's it. Through six paragraphs of post-menstrual bitching, there are only 3 things, none of which were forced onto her, that us men so tragically slave our wives into doing. Oh, the harshness. Because we know that all women would just love to live in a house dirty beyond repair. And the kids, yes. Who doesn't want their child growing up without parental guidance, so they can go find companionship with the crack dealer in the back alley. Trophy children, just can't get enough of them. And then comes the husband. Of course, completely useless. Unable to do a single thing around the house. Comes home, eats, sleeps.

F'uck these feminist bitches. If they don't want to do anything around the house, they can go live on the street. Equality? How about doing simple things at home before you run for president. I am in no way sexist. Sure, there are great women out there willing to help when help is needed. I am purely against f'ucking idiots who think they've got it bad by taking their own children to the park, and placing the chicken in the oven for "20-25 minutes." Get a clue, and stop f'ucking complaining about putting some effort in to keep your bulls'hit relationship going full steam.

F'uck off.

And that is why I don't want a wife.[/QUOTE]

Double Bass Jim 09-22-2005 08:24 PM

Haha nice rant

styler 09-22-2005 08:31 PM

AMAC 09-22-2005 08:34 PM

Double Bass Jim 09-22-2005 08:48 PM

Win A Rabbit 09-22-2005 09:04 PM

thanks for the rant comments, everyone. here's what she wrote in response, before her five minute lecture to me about how it's not her that marks the diploma exam, and other people won't be lenient, etc.

"Liam, I fully appreciate your points of view. You are an excellent writer, but could you please refrain from using the f word and all of it's derivatives?" :lol: total teacher response. she crossed out all of my swears and put less offensive words in place.

Plan B. 09-22-2005 09:05 PM

What the hell is VOLTO?

Futuro 09-22-2005 09:10 PM

[QUOTE]What the hell is VOLTO?[/QUOTE] It's not "VOLTO?" It's "VOLTO!" :p Thats the name of an awsome Jam band Danny is in. They do some Classic rock covers with some funky chill stuff thrown in, GREAT music.

Double Bass Jim 09-22-2005 09:12 PM

Im wondering the same thing?

Plan B. 09-22-2005 09:12 PM

:lol:

Oooooooooooh...?

No, that's sweet, didn't know. I was really aiming more for Tool though.

poppinfresh 09-22-2005 09:14 PM

haha sweet

oh and to your previous comment, no im not some n00b ranter who rants all the time for attention, usually it just happens and i can get through the page in two seconds and it always entertains me when i read it later.
you have pretty good writing skills, unfortunately for me thats where i am the weakest so i have to use more naughty words to get my point across.

rockindrummer 09-22-2005 09:18 PM

Nice rant man that was pretty sweet, what did you get on it?

Futuro 09-22-2005 09:19 PM

[QUOTE]No, that's sweet, didn't know. I was really aiming more for Tool though.[/QUOTE] Meh, tool is overrated. :X

*trys to piss off toll so they will release something sooner.*

I am going to [i]f[/i][i]uckin'[/i] KILL my cats...

So as I was braggin about my badass recorder back there, I decided to go try and find the manual online for it (Bought it at a pawn shop for $150, retail is $500 for it), and I FOUND IT!
I was reading and found out all the cool stuff the buttons do that I didn't know about (I always went 'what's that button do? oh well, record'), so I went to fool with it and it WON'T PLAY.

The GOD****MOTHER****ERING****BAGDOUCHEASSCOCKSUCKERBITCH cats pissed on it!
P.I.S.S.E.D.


GYAHHEAHAHHH!!!!
They pissed on our last one too, which was a much suckier version and is why we found/bought this one, and was also more expensive as we bought that one new.

HAHHHAHGHEAIHGEAHHFEAOIFHOEIHGOAIEHFOAIEFOIROIYe3poriypoiqpow87yfp987!

I'm tellin my mom tomorrow that the cats have got to go and if I see them in the basement again I'll kick them.
Serious.



AHHHHHHHh



Now we have to buy a new recorder...:(
Which postpones:
> Me setting money aside for a new computer
> Drum module/electric set
> Setting money aside for a PA

On top of that I have to pay the $120 bank overdraft fee or it gets cancelled, AND I have to pay $104 on my insurance.




I hate cats.

Double Bass Jim 09-23-2005 12:25 AM

[I]D[/I]amn man that blows, don't be too hard on em their just animals ;)

PowerStamp 09-23-2005 12:30 AM

lol
ok while I probably won't kick them, I just don't want them pissing on my drumsets and my bandmates gear either, my CDs DVDs, games PS2...thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of **** in my room lol...and no reason for cats down there.

Still really pisses me off though...I was just browsing Musicians Friend, gonna talk to the guys and see what they think we should get, and I started looking at mics for drums again lol and though "****, no PA, no recorder, no use!"

Jezen 09-23-2005 12:33 AM

Why don't you get a runner for your cats? You can get like a sort of out-door cat cage for them, and they can still have freedom as they deserve but they don't piss on your stuff that way. Cats are great pets and companions, and I think you would regret getting rid of them.

Double Bass Jim 09-23-2005 12:42 AM

[QUOTE]Cats are great pets and companions, and I think you would regret getting rid of them.[/QUOTE]
Agreed, I love my cat :cool:

Jezen 09-23-2005 12:44 AM

I love my three cats! Though sadly they are still in Australia.
