basically everything the edge did between 1981 and 1991. i have been on a quest to recreate the tone from exit and mothers of the disappeared for years. prince's lead tone in his while my guitar gently weeps cameo. i've got my eyes on you and pearl cadillac lead tone for verses to fuzz chorus from gary clark jr. the forgotten (both part 1 and 2) from satriani. mick taylor's in midnight rambler. bring it on home to me...the perfect expression of that clean tone that connotes unreal blues from b.b. king. i've spent a little bit of money trying to recreate srv's coily low end tone on little wing.

sounds like someone's about to buy a klon. if horn dogg isn't bullshitting above about never using pedals, he should be willing to part with it for someone who will actually use it for a very fair price.

dude, i should be able to count on a big 6 club disposing of a fucking championship team that barely snuck by a glorified intramural team. if i remember, wrexham was a paul mullin choked pk from winning and their entire team could be paid by kane's salary alone. but you're right, i get what i deserve. last time.

no idea why i keep doing this to myself...i keep including spurs in all my fucking parlays and they never fail to completely fuck me. arsenal -2, Liverpool -1, manu money line, and spurs money line. and they completely buttfuck me again.

Pretty sure that's a Mackie ProFX16 mixer in the foreground. I own the same unit. No idea what I was thinking when I bought it, way overkill for my needs, but it used regularly and I appreciate the onboard effects. that's definitely the mackie onyx series. i want to start hearing some shit. post it here.

i worked in norwood tower during undergrad from 98-02 so knew jean lucs on the colorado side well...and its end. me and a bunch of my drunk dumbass friends climbed to the roof of norwood via the fire escape on new year's 2000 to take it all in. was pretty awesome but lucky no one died and that i didn't get fired.

thank you. ordered. i was in undergrad from fall 98 to spring 02. i had the pleasure of tex for every single semester and summer session for four years. i worked m-f from 12-7 pretty much all of undergrad so as a freshman/sophomore, trying to get section times between 9 and 12 every day for virtually every class was an incredible lesson in rejection. tex repeatedly telling me to fuck off with that perfect cadence was a three time a year tradition. i broke a phone spring of my freshman year trying to register for the fall after taking like six sections of "was NOT added" in a row. online registration began in earnest the year after i graduated.

looking through their financial statements, one of the things that surprised me is that fox news is $6.1B of their overall $13.9B (see p. 103 of the above link). that is a significantly larger share than i expected. and their ebitda margins on fox news are light years higher than they are on regular tv. their ebitda margin on fox news is 48% and on all other entertainment, it is only 4%. i guess paying dumbfucks to get up and spew horseshit isn't terribly expensive.

a $1.6 billion judgment would not put them anywhere near bankruptcy risk. as of the end of of their FY2022, they had $5.2 billion in cash on hand. See page 66. https://media.foxcorporation.com/wp-content/uploads/prod/2022/09/19142833/FOX-2022-Annual-Report_Final_Web.pdf

how many pick guard screws are on the 94? need pix.

#Heardle #369 🔇⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ https://spotify.com/heardle?r=share had i known this, i would expect my surly music board family to do the honorable thing and shoot me in the fucking head immediately. no offense to anyone who likes this shit.

good post. as i said, if he is buying the mic for the sole purpose of recording acoustic instruments, then imo the 184 (or something like it) is the exact thing he needs. it did a beautiful job of capturing the sound of the acoustic cello i posted above and other than maybe jimmyjazz and paul, i doubt very many people would be able to draw any quality distinction between the recordings i posted above. it can be used location wise in far more physically versatile and nuanced ways and the price is fractional in comparison. so i am exactly in line with your thinking. but we know that goredho is an excellent electric guitarist and when he plugs into that amp... i need to post the same comparison i did with the cello above with electric guitar turned up. and you are 100% correct that the u87 or u67 is a completely irrational purchase for hobbyists like us. aside from professional studios, only complete dumbasses like me are stupid enough to waste the money (though comforted by the belief that i should be able to sell it for close to the same as purchase if the time comes). complete waste of money and would have been much better spent paying for time in studio with a pro engineer and keep it more reasonable at home. but i am an idiot...and i found an awesome deal for a used one that was in perfect condition and was curious to play with them. all that said, in the golden crashes track above, the only thing that was recorded with the u87 was the bass line starting at 0:16 through 0:51. i had done everything else before i had it. and my god, to my ears, it is by far the best sounding thing in the track by a long shot. (to be clear, the only other thing recorded was the guitar and a little bit of the bass line in the second half. the fast bass licks in the second half, drums, and pads were all programmed with vi's). when you get a chance to listen, i'll be curious if you agree with the intro bass standing out sonically. if i was a better guitarist and could play the intro and the jam out in a take or two as opposed to stitching together about 30 different clips, i would have definitely re-recorded with new mic but i'm not and apparently lazy. eta: on topic of compressors, gave a half second thought to getting an LA2A instead of the much more commodity stuff but then i remembered that there is a limit to my silliness. i can do so much processing through eq, imagers, compressors, verb with the trillions of dollars i've spent on fabfilter, valhalla, liquidsonics, and izotope products on the back end now...and i'm a dude in a room in my house, not a studio. i am just starting to play with the art stuff and see what it's capable of. like i said, it's not on the same planet as the pro stuff but it appears it can serve a purpose of enhancing my dry tracks going in.

so...just to check to see what the deal with this batshit insane op is...i went ahead and checked with chatgpt to see what it thought. so it appears that somedude and gpt do not necessarily agree and that gpt is significantly less insane/magical thinking and quite a bit more pragmatic than the op. unless the op is some sort of texags version of gpt.

something a little different. not recorded on the u87 described above unfortunately (except for the bass in the intro part). drums and bass lick in the second half jam out are programmed, as is the pad in the first half and the transition. lots of delay/verb on the front half, tube driver/big muff/overdrive in the second half. i still don't really know if the transition actually works or not between the intro and the second half. @Goredho has promised me a screaming guitar solo over the top of the chugging chorus that's going to make it a huge hit but here it is naked.

and on the topic of actually sharing music. a little viola-piano-cello bagatelle i mocked up with vi's. strings will get properly recorded in paul's studio soon.

after spamming the shit out of @Paul Wesley over the last month through text, i grabbed the u87 and a set of km184s. i also grabbed a preamp and a compressor to run the line prior to the audio interface just because i found a great deal on some hardly used art pros. they aren't anywhere near professional studio quality but most pros agree that they punch above their weight for the cost and add enough to the quality that its worth it for home recorders. i did replace the stock tubes on both with some mullard tubes. after playing with both of them quite a bit this weekend (so much fun), i think a agree with jimmyjazz that you would probably be better off getting a high quality large diaphragm mic because it will be so much more versatile for you. you play a ton of electric guitar and then u87 took the electric guitar so much better than the km184 (and vox too if you wanted). i recorded a guitar driven track on the u87 that sounds incredible to me that will get posted in this thread soon. HOWEVER, if you are asking for something that is wholly dedicated to just acoustic instruments, the km184 would give the same quality for a lot less cost. below are two tracks of nothing but cello open strings. no playing, didn't want to distract from the sound. just open strings from C to A with some slight shifts in bowing dynamics. u87 set to card. the tracks are as dry as i can make them...no post-recording processing whatsoever...not even eq. nada. just straight into logic and bounced to wav...nothing on the bus after it leaves the compressor. for acoustic only, the difference is not much. photos below the tracks for mic position in both scenarios and the preamp/compressor settings. the only difference between the settings is I did add a little bit more gain on the preamp for the km184 to try and get them as close to the same input as possible. the remaining settings are as in the pic. these were just at my house with no acoustic treatment.

i waited a long time to comment on that game. i still don't have any words for that absolute shit show...first game knee jerk overreaction notwithstanding. i knew losing gabrielsen was going to hurt more than most would admit but holy shit. zardes is lucky AF that keller fucked up so monumentally bad because no one is talking about how utterly feckless and useless he was...the goal miss was awful. rigoni, zardes, and the entire back four should probably be replaced by whatever fucking randoms the best area high school team features at those positions. they are so fucking bad...every one of them. hopefully we get urruti back out there and driussi, fagundez, and he can get something going offensively.

i think he may have already done it based on ron's whimpering and lack of counterpunch after "meatball ron." he's scared shitless of him. considering he could probably be of some significant assistance to the many prosecutions/investigations into trump, it is amazing what a little sniveling bitch he is.

"america" is going to win, eh? not an encouraging start.

wow, a college cannot support programs or campus activities of equity, diversity, or inclusion? that's a fairly bold and naked concept that can only really have appeal to the poe it ups of the world. that is pretty wild. florida, like texas, is allowing its state to be culturally destroyed in order to advance their governors' hair-brained political ambitions and need to outflank donald fucking trump. what a fucking world.
