    6-week ownership update: Fender Aerodyne Jazz Special

    I am very appreciative of you doing this. Thank you. However, I am unable to download the .stl from Tinkercad. It goes nowhere. Tried different browsers. Tried browsers on both Windows and Mac. Tried to download .obj and .svg as well. None worked. Any suggestions, would be greatly appreciated.

    New Sire U5 review and discussion thread

    I have just received my mint one too. Mostly loving it so far. One of the nicest looking basses/guitars I have seen. And sounds very nice too. However, I have the same complaint about the top edge being a bit too 'sharp'. If it was was sculpted there like my Squier Vintage Modified Jazz and my...

    Rumble Studio 40 vs Logic Pro X Bass Amps

    I understand exactly what reamping is. I say it doesn't matter whether the reamping is done using virtual amps within a DAW or amps which have a physical presence outside of the DAW, it's still reamping. Any distinction between those two methods is entirely arbitrary and illogical. Given that a...

    Rumble Studio 40 vs Logic Pro X Bass Amps

    I have done a little more research on re-amping. This from an ad for a 'reamping box': For years, Reamping has been the 'secret weapon' for countless recordings by the biggest names in the business! Few realize that recording engineers not only Reamp guitars, but often Reamp bass, keyboards...

    Rumble Studio 40 vs Logic Pro X Bass Amps

    Thinking a bit more about re-amping using the Studio 40, this could be done fairly easily it seems to me, like this ... The S40 has a pre-out. Record the pre-out signal on a different track (at the same time you record the modelled signal received via USB). You could, of course, re-amp that...

    Rumble Studio 40 vs Logic Pro X Bass Amps

    Thank you very much for taking the time to provide me with such a detailed answer. It was all either useful or interesting, mostly both. That the Rumble recordings cannot be re-amped hadn't occurred to me. I could just play it again with a different sound of course. Rumble Studio 40 added to...

    Ever switched DAWs?

    I started with Emagic Notator on an Atari. Moved to Cubase. Briefly to GarageBand, then to Logic fifteen or more years ago. Still using Logic Pro X. I find it excellent. I'm not a recording engineer, I'm a musician. I use Logic in my home studio. I don't want to change DAWS ever again because...

    Rumble Studio 40 vs Logic Pro X Bass Amps

    I use Logic Pro X for recording in my home studio. I have used the built in bass amp sims quite successfully but think maybe they are a little limited--just the 3 amps are simulated. I find twiddling the virtual knobs on a virtual amp a bit ... something less than ideal. I'm toying with the...

    Behringer Bass V-AMP Pro

    The handy reference in iFCB tells me that Wah requires that the pedal is sending CC 27 messages. If it's affecting the mid knob on the EQ it's sending CC 14 messages. This information is also in the BVAP manual.

    Behringer Bass V-AMP Pro

    Hey cannonballjames, What I have found just as useful as a decent manual for the BVAP is the iVAMP software for editing the patches. Having all the settings laid out in a logical manner makes it sooo much easier to understand. I have an FCB1010 on the way to me and have already purchased iFCB...

    Behringer Bass V-AMP Pro

    G'day Caeman and anyone else that might bother to read this, I'm sure that you are aware of this, but just so everyone is on the same page let's clarify some terminology because confusion does arise. I have even seen dictionaries and musical instrument manufacturers get this wrong (hang your...

    Behringer Bass V-AMP Pro

    G'day kurotenshi, It sounds to me when I use the freq. split on the distortion 'pedals' in the BVAP that it is the frequencies above the split point that get the distortion, which is how you would hope it would work. I could be wrong about this of course!

    Pro Behringer!

    I doesn't make sense to me either. I was able to buy my Rickenbacker from a US retailer, pay US$235.00 or so in freight, plus 10% Tax (GST), plus Customs inspection fees and still end up paying about AUS$1,000 less than if I had bought one from a music shop here in Aus. And what a beautiful...
