  1. Gee Ed, have you ever considered doing other covers? Maybe some Jethro Tull perhaps? ? (?)
  2. That whole Ronnie Scotts concert was awesome! I'm not certain, but I think that's the concert that introduced everyone to Tal. I love how Jeff just watches her in wonder. ? I hope this is a good playlist (there were a few to choose from!):
  3. As long as this winds up in the correct Cover thread you'll be ok, ya? ?
  4. Well! If it's already been "Mooch Approved!" then I'd better listen to it! ?
  5. When I had my studio, I had (at least!) three mixers: A main Mackie, and two others that fed into it (one was digital which used D/A to the Mackie as well as straight in as digital, the other gathered all of my "toys" together, like v-drums, synths, non-guitar modelers and romplers, etc.). I would have at least two incoming lines for the guitars, one dry, and others that came in from mic'ed cabs or tapped into the back of something (I used a lot of rack units like the Mesa Rectifier Recording Preamp for example). Needless to say, this could sometimes cause problems since splitting/duplicating the signal might not allow you the interaction with the amp that you want (and, obviously, not all amps have a dry out channel so I had to split it using other techniques - my custom Variax had the floor pedal do this natively, so that helped!). Then there was the whole complexity of how things came back out! Besides the ability to go to the mixing monitors, I had dedicated outputs to my PA speakers (to play the backing tracks for everyone or just me to play along with) as well as my headphone amp (my way to give everyone their own mix when needed). Add wireless to both the inputs (vocals and guitars, bass players were required to remain tethered into a child-safe corner ?) and even the headphones sometimes, and I could play with friends. It took a lot of initial planning (the spreadsheets used and abused are huge!), but totally worth it for me! ?
  6. Will listen later once I find some ??? ?
  7. I misread the thread title as "The Second Arraignment" and thought someone had gotten busted again! ?
  8. I was soooo hoping Albert had a middle name that began with "C!" That would have been the perfect side-joke for A C E, but... he didn't even have a middle name! Oh, well.
  9. In related news... Archeologists have discovered what they believe are ancient drumsticks apparently meant to be used by small, Asian hands...
  10. So, are you saying Heavy Metal isn't all it's cracked-up to be? ?
  11. What's the difference between a conspiracy theory and the truth? About eight months! ?
  12. Hopefully! ? At least your tunes won't be in danger! ??
  13. And a pitch-shifter that tw*ats everything up to Am! ? [With attribution to one Strummy! ??]
  14. Kim Mitchell - No More Walking Away
  15. Information Society - Walking Away
  16. In many areas that extend far beyond this topic, I love to find presets/templates/etc. that are close to what I'm looking for and then tweak them to make them mine. I'm a big fan of not reinventing the wheel! Of course, once I've done my own stuff, then I prefer to start with one of my creations and tweak from that. ?
  17. Sorry Kenny, but AI has access to Nikola Tesla's notes about free energy and is tapped in. Only full use of RS will cause AI to want to pull its own plug! We're sending in Kanye now...
  18. Til Tuesday - Voices Carry Oh heck, here's the official video too! The guy's face at the end always cracks me up! ?
  19. Some new ones! ? She was only a moonshiner's daughter, but I miss her still. What do you call a pig with laryngitis? Disgruntled. Why do bees stay in their hives during winter? Swarm. Just so everyone is clear, I’m going to put my glasses on. A commander walks into a bar and orders everyone around. I lost my job as a stage designer. I left without making a scene. Never buy flowers from a monk. Only you can prevent florist friars. How much did the pirate pay to get his ears pierced? A buccaneer. I lost my girlfriend’s audiobook, and now I’ll never hear the end of it. When I told my contractor I didn’t want carpeted steps, they gave me a blank stare. Scientists got together to study the effects of alcohol on a person’s walk, and the result was staggering. I’m trying to organize a hide and seek tournament, but good players are really hard to find. I got over my addiction to chocolate, marshmallows, and nuts. I won’t lie, it was a rocky road. What did the surgeon say to the patient who insisted on closing up their own incision? Suture self. I’ve started telling everyone about the benefits of eating dried grapes. It’s all about raisin awareness.
