  1. How much would you be looking for for the Rack, Samson and tuner then, if Monk Rocker was interested in the head? How many units does the rack hold?
  2. Thank so much to those that have listened. Genuinely didn't expect such a posi response. We're working on getting the release out ASAP.
  3. We're finally get round to another form of release in September time. This is a track from that EP. We still play a shouty emo/post hardcore racket with gammy changes, but have tried to tone down the vox a little bit from our last effort. Ross Middlemiss of Pesioner fame did a great job. Hopefully there'll be some future updates on releases and things soon. In For A Penny, In For A Pound by Carson Wells on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

    Soundcity

    Got an old 50 plus that I'm looking to get shot of. Got serviced and retubed by Doctor D at the start of the year. Sounds nice, but could do with a retolex etc.
  5. One of the nicest set of telecasters I've seen. Love them all.
  6. I'm really enjoying the Atmosphere album. I think Slug really suits the minimalistic beats with just a guitar/piano and a drum beat - like on guarantees/alwayscoming back home to you/the living legends song 'nothing less. His stories do enough for me to keep it interesting. I really like the sing along choruses he kinda mumbles through. This is only the first listen, but I reckon it's a grower. EDIT: Crack Pipes by Sage Francis is a belter.
  7. Wish i had cash because I really fancy using a small snare for a main snare for some reason. Saying that, I got Dallas to tune the Mr. Death Ludwig bad boy you sold to me. Sounds fucking great - like a bolt of lightning or summat.
  8. Will listen when i get home, Darren. Have the drums been tracked live now, or are you sticking with the programmed stuff for your album? Looking forward to hear it with vox.
  9. Is that the reel to reel/tape delay thing? Sparkly.
  10. That's lush, Claire! The cab does look sensational.

    free piano

    If RF Scott doesn't take it, I may be interested. Got any idea of dimensions?
  12. Eugh. It's a real shame that Union Street has turned into any other high street. Maybe something to be said for reduced rental/rates for local businesses a la BMs? But then, why would they when The likes of Hugo Boss and G Star Raw can and probably would pay double whatever it is just now. It'll be interesting to see if the independent other retail outlet(s) last up that end. Signature is the only one i can think of, but no doubt it will go soon. It's a real shame to lose one of the two main music shops in a city with too little music shops. It'll be interesting to see if it remains a music shop - Guitar Guitar have branches in G'town, Edinburgh and Newcastle i think. Admittedly not local, but a music shop nonetheless and a good one. Probably mean the end of RnB though...
  13. Genuinely one of the Scottish records of 2011. Even if they weren't pals i'd really enjoy this. Enough pop to keep it simple and enough non-pop to keep it interesting. Anybody who enjoys guitar music should enjoy AT LEAST one of the songs on this to some degree.
  14. TrueLad is coming out with some belters.

    Glitchy DAW

    It was defs on the right ASIO driver because I also was using the interface for monitoring and tracking. There doesn't seem to be any way of configuring any of the setting on the interface, but i think there is a way of changing the buffer settings for something. I wish I knew what i was talking about. Where's the best place to go to read stuff so I can understand things? I tried it again last night and it was a lot better. The occassional pop which would spike the track I was recording on.
  16. Hi I'm currently fiddling about with home recording and stuff. I'm running a Zoom R16 as an interface to Reaper. It all worked perfectly in the beginning, but then I started work on a track with heaps of audio tracks and effects. When I was working on these tracks I thought the CPU load of all the effects and stuff were causing the DAW to make these horrible glitchy noises. Recently when I work on something, even if it's just one track with no effects it makes these noises which kinda sound like a nasty ring modulator. It effects all audio from the DAW - playback and monitoring. The version of Reaper I'm running is the free version which expired ages ago. Could that be the reason? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
  17. The Min were great as usual, despite all the gear trouble. New songs are sounding doss and Zipp's vocals were on it. Pensioner were absolutely on fire and have come on leaps and bounds since the first EP - got their sound absolutely nailed. Got to hear the first 4 tracks off the album on the way home and they sound great. Lovely packaging too. Only downer is the Sunday night-like turnout, which seems to happen more and more regularly these days. Hopefully Pensioner can make it up for a well attended gig sometime in/after summer.
  18. Duke were spot on. Good set length and enough variation to keep things pretty interesting. I got told about a single or something out soon which I'll probably look into. JoFo were awesome. I'm a big fan of the first album so sad there wasn't more off that, but looking back I think there were 4 off the first 4 off the second and 4 or so newer. Can't really complain. They look totally over-toured and unhealthy though - I probably said it a million times on the night but Alexei looked like a skinny guy with a pillow under his shirt and Kelly was looking, well.... amazing, but also a lot slighter than I've noticed in other photos/videos/general pervation. It's totally none of my business, but I just hope it's just "one of those things" rather than an over indulgence in sex, drugs and rock and roll. Junior is the King of Birmingham.
  19. That looks like it could kill a man. Awesome.
  20. This has been rescheduled for the 19th April. COME. I don't think Stagecoach will be supporting though. Nobody knows.
  21. Has the band packed it in like? Good price for the cab. I've always thought the 610s sounded far better than the 810s too - more definition and more rounded.
  22. Yep, really looking forward to this album and listening to the tune when I get home.

    Sound City 50 Plus

    Still available. Had a few offers, but nothing solid yet. Would be up for some sort of trade or p/x with an Orange Tiny Terror or Dual Terror.
