  1. Spite were a fucking great band and that 7" is amazing...99p is a bargain!
  2. It could be worse, it could have been a page of someone with a fucked up mouth... a la
  3. Aye well you're just rubbing it in that the past 15 years of my life have been wasted bothering when music!!
  4. Anyone who wants to see The Kooks live deserves to have to pay £130. Great deterrent though....the touts are doing you a favour!
  5. Rancid are playing Glasgow on the 8th Nov and Edinburgh on the 9th (I think) what say you burn down the Edinburgh venue and get them up to abz instead on that date!!
  6. Convolution reverb is the way to go for this! Theres a free convolution reverb VST out there (maybe a few' date=' but can't remember what they are) and plenty of free impulse responses, everything from the norm to the total bizarre, impulse responses of pipes, people's mouths, garbage cans, kids echo mics, etc.. up to opera houses, stadiums, famed recording studios, it's very believable aswell, the cleaner your signal (ie. close mic'd as possible) the better it can work.... Heres the freebie... [url']http://www.knufinke.de/sir/download.html (EDIT: Getting mega latency with this thing, I'm using ALtiverb usually, works in real time) And heres free impulse responses... http://noisevault.com/nv/ http://www.echochamber.ch/responses/index.html The impulse responses (if you don't know) are basically samples of a sound in a space, and the reverb processor sort of analyses the generated wave form and is able to emulate the ambience with whatever signal is being passed through....don't take that as gospel but thats as best as I can describe it. Check it out though, no more fizzy guitars! I use it just for playing along at home sitting with headphones sounding like you're ripping it up in the Albert Hall...
  7. That line6 keyboard really is an ugly piece of shit! Not only are the mod wheels in the wrong place, but VU meters on a keyboard!!! Come on!!
  8. Surely Backstage studios is more suited!
  9. Thats not true...if you own a VCR and no telly I'm sure you still have to pay a license becaues the video is capable of receiving a signal!!! Madness! But hey, surely if EVERYONE refused to pay their license next month they couldn't catch us all....
  10. You might have known it as "techy drawing". Graphic com. was one of the few subjects I did well at school...but they couldn't afford to offer a higher course...waste of 4 years that was.
  11. I predict the following headlines to be common in the next few years MAN SHOT DEAD FOR WHISTLING TUNE OF INTERNET LEAKED SONG FEMALE HAS HANDS CHOPPED OFF AFTER ILLEGALY BROADCASTING HER TABLE VERSION OF PHIL COLLINS "IN THE AIR" DRUM SOLO 50 YEAR OLD MAN WHO HAS NEVER PURCHASED OR LISTENED TO MUSIC IN HIS LIFE AS EARS CUT OFF BY RIAA SPOKESMAN UNSIGNED GUITAR BANDS FUCKED AFTER THE SOUND OF A STRINGED INSTRUMENT IS COPYRIGHTED TO SONY
  12. Haha!! Perfect!! Thats the sort of shit I love...surely thats one step towards a better world for all! "Imagine no posessions...etc"
  13. It's funny, there are people who give away pianos for free out of the kindness of their heart and they are really hoping that the piano will be pleasently enjoyed by someone else in the same way they used to enjoy it, as they hated seeing the thing sitting gathering dust. Its a tough decision to make, but they know deep down that if someone else gets the benefit of it, it's a fair trade. Then some twats go and do this.... http://pianoburning.blogspot.com/ Maybe piano lovers will stop being so charitable after this!
  14. That site is awful, most the songs I've looked up on it are pretty vague and open to interpretation, but the people who post on it really are the dumbest of the dumbest....but there is the odd person who picks up things that you were thinking, and then gets shot down, but its cool to know that someone else was on the same wavelength. The best songs have no specific meaning and are written to intentionally create such madness, a la "I am the Walrus"...thank fuck everyone on the site realises this aswell!
  15. Surely in the age of the internet, tutors are redundant. I picked up a keyboard at the start of the year and am getting on ok. I had piano lessons when I was very young and it was the most boring thing I've ever done, and I've watched paint dry!
  16. Did you go for this? I love the look of the kontrol 49 (like the microkontrol 49, but with full size keys) I'd have to sell most my rig to pay for it but it looks like it could replace most of it....if it was an ASIO compatible audio interface aswell at the same price it would be the dogs doo-da's....but yeah...they look great, and there are lots of preset patches for most of the software/plugins out there, so a good investment I would imagine, helping you free yourself from your mouse.
