Casual Fourteen - *Insert Own Rhyme Here*
 

Hello everyone! How are you all?

So we've actually started this Sound Engineering course, today I was messing round with a MIDI version of Kashmir by the mighty Led Zeppelin, converting it into an orchestral song, with ambient synth!

Later on we do a full on studio remix of Marvin Gaye's What's Goin On, we've got a copy of the original 2" master tapes!

/first post

EDIT- actual post now. just wanted to be first. go me!

lately, nothing has been going on. the wife was out of town for 4 days last week at a seminar. loneliness blows. but that was all fixed on monday upon her return.

the shop has been pretty busy lately. i finished work on a neck for a custom sixer. 7 peice bubinga/wenge. its pretty awesome.

other than that, my life has been life. how about everyone else?

Ok, now who gets the first productive post?

Quite right, quite right.

You'll get no sympathy for going lonely for 4 days, matey.

my amp seems to be ****en up in one of the four speakers. It isn't bad but its a very mild fart/pressury sound on the top left corner speaker. It is kinda making me angry. But im going to get my cousin to look at it. He knows all about that ****.

Thats the latest news with me... otherwise nothing is happening!

I sold my Ampeg SVT CL and one of my GK 2001RBs. I also ordered the Ampeg SVP CL preamp and the SVP 1600 poweramp to replace them.

*plays elastomania*

i'm learning Hamm's Moonlight Sonata, i've got about the first 4 bars down.
if i weren't a tapping amature i guess it wouldn't be as hard, but i assume it'll improve my tapping anyway.

anyone have any advice to enhance my tapping skills? i.e. easier things to practice on that will involve all my fingers to help me get better.

I'm shopping around/imagining my dream bass, other than that not heaps except training for next years rugby season.

Try Hamm's Prelude In C. That does wonders for tapping.

I'll give you some sympathy! My other half's been away for 35 days so far and doesn't come home until the 10th of Nov. The first few days were hell... but then I knew I'd got ages to go... actually I'll take that sympathy back! Wintermute is totally right, and I'm too nice, sometimes, in short bouts!

I just wrote a nifty little jazz chart in Bb major. Hopefully I can get it recorded in a bit when my jazz buddies and I record a demo.

How is Hamms moonlight sonata tapped? I heard he just uses the fretting hand. IMO theres no need to tap it, I just finger style it.

Heyy guys. I just got in from work (yeah, I worked on a Friday night. I'e had to do it for two months straight, and next week is my last Friday). Kinda sucks, but whatever.

So anyway, I haven't seen my girlfriend for a week. Not bad at all, but it kinda sucks. We're both so busy with school, clubs, jobs, family, etc. that we barely see eachother. Oh well...soon it will change though. Hopefully we're hanigng tomorrow after I get out of work.

You can certainly fingerstyle a fair part of it, but tapping it is easier.

Hey Gav.

im trying to think of a cool way to do dust in the wind on bass... but i'm pretty retarded... and this song is so bad ***...

I would LOVE to see you play three lines like he does with two hands with just one.

It's hard enough (at least, to me :() with 2 hands.

^ :lol:

I can't play it o_O I won't lie.

Woah, my 3am brain misread what you wrote, my response was about an utterly different song.

Moonlight Sonata without tapping? bulls[size=2]hi[/size]t.

If you can do that, sign up to a freak show, you have the worlds biggest hands, and can play the 2nd and 12th frets simultaneously.

You know what dounds good right now? Fried chicken. Mmmmm. And mashed potatoes and gravy. And broccoli. Mmmmm.

When we're all older, as in we're about 30 years old, do you think we'll still talk on here?

good qestion.

Nice wah.

Everyone go look in the pics of mx users thread. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^ :naughty:

It just sounded like one of those softcore pornos on Skinamax (Cinemax "after dark"). Like, the hot girl and the guy are in a music store, closing it up, and the guy busts this crazy bass solo that's so groovy, and the girl's just like "nice wah." The guy then plays a porno bass groove while the girl does something...o_O.

...I need to go to bed.
