cool, i've ever wanted to give a try to the car amp concept to make some punky DIY double-bass amp for our street busking with the band...

but i'm just a lazy thing, so I keep on ruining my fingers playing loud acoustic...

Suddenly that fake old-timey stereo in the living room might have a purpose if my wife will let me crack it open...

looks like quite a lot of them will get tortured around the world in the next future smile

great tip!!!

but don't listen to it that often anymore. More often, I listen to stuff that takes those elements and uses them in the service of a more conventional composition.

well, that the point: fucked up experimental things, in electro, jazz or whatever are usually cool to discover, as a musician i often feel like ''waw, how do they do that, why, where does this come from, I have to try this evening''
it helps to see how far you could actually go.

but listening to this all day, for simple ''listening pleasure''... no way smile

Hi,

a friend of mine will do it for me, as... well... i'm just a doublebassist really, I can't hold and sold these very tiny things, I'm 100% sure to mess it up.

BUT

we're doing this at work (bad, bad unproductive people) and can't really follow the youtube tutorial in the open space.

does anybody have a plan, or better some PDF tutorial about how to do it ? (yes I've requested it some time ago to non finite elec, but well...)

- mostly where we have to connect the 3 wires for the backlight, rest should be OK... appart this ''inverted or not'' thing... which I think will remain on the improvisation field

- about pro sound (I know it's not a crucial mod on GMB but well, while it's opened) what the actual benefit of Pre or post pot ?

loudness is not necessarly the main concern, as I will boost up things through a preamp or multi effects anyway
Which option does reduce the annoying ''bzzzzzz" background best, especially at reccording ?

thanks in advance...

Hi,

me again...

I'started to explore the wav channel and did not quite acheive to get the bass sound I was aiming for yet...  but never mind: i've actually discovered a lot of twisted and very interessting (though sometimes quite disturbing smile ) sounds possibilities on the way!

next question: do you know were I could find some general/understandable theory about waveforms, in order to orientate my customization attemps ?

-edit-

disregard the question, found tons of complicated stuff on the net, and Roboctopus tutto is far the best material arround, so I'll simply keep on focusing on the noisechannel advises

I'm not a chiptune performer(yet^^), but have a similar ''restrictive touring environnement '' with my current Band

>small city, little place to steel among already settled bands (which do defend their part of the cake, obviously)
>obscur style (gipsy-balkan music) that nobody cares about
>no name yet on the scene (starts to change a bit)

we've actually applied the very good advices given by herr prof
I think the best one is:

herr prof wrote:

- When people come to your town, come to them as a fan, and make a connection

because you can take advantage of their logistic / communication means if doing a first part, or some punctual featuring on 1 or 2 tracks

I would add, play, play and play... no matter where, when... small venues, any public event (even scary ones, as the ''potatoe fest'' in the next haunted village), have a 3mn demo between 2 dances of the local dance school show, be part of the new wall markt opening, neighbourhood yearly barbecue, anything really!

you'll surely be amased about how people will be demanding and interested in an atypical type of musical entertainment (even more if free...)

Once you've got one or 2 lines in the local paper (public events are often covered), 1 or 2 posters of local shows with your name on and a few pictures / clips of you playing, it's much easier to get ''regular'' (payed) gigs

then, the more people you will meet, the more offers you'll get and at a certain point, proposals will arrive by themselves... but it does take time and perseverance

hi, I got them all printed in my case since a few weeks now!!
thanks for that by the way \o/

as a total beginner I waited to kind of get use to the main features of the soft before following your path!

in the meantime the .sav collection collected earlier will be very very useful to start understanding how to organise things in the sequenceur with some sounds / wave constructions examples

hi guys,

thanks so much for all feedback and advices, really appreciate it!

may I overuse your kindness by asking one or two set up examples (or links) I could take as a base to dig into wav bassing ?

i like layering pulse and wav basses,.

you mean pulse1+Wav for bass and pulse2+noise for beat ?

My next level moment for my songs was just making everyone one instrument...

a 4channel bass, then record... and a 4 channel beat... then a 4 channels lead and so on ?

hardcore...
