    “I can’t stand them!” The voices you love to hate.

    I feel like Bob Seger is two different singers. Chorus Bob Seger is a treasured American artist, Verse Bob Seger is a guy at a blues gig in a small bar.

    “I can’t stand them!” The voices you love to hate.

    Yeah as soon as I saw Spectrum's post I thought of Wings of Pegasus's videos. The Michael Buble melodyne gave me an acid flashback.

    Yacht Rock slander detected; deploying Kurt Angle.

    “I can’t stand them!” The voices you love to hate.

    I either really enjoy or really dislike Sammy Hagar's vocal performances with Van Halen.

    Sire Bass Club!

    Possibly an obvious question, but have you changed the 9v batteries since it arrived?

    Fender Neck on a Squier Body

    The days of Anti-Squier Sentiment (ASS as I like to call it) on the internet ended awhile ago. I own a Squier J Bass with a Fender neck on it and I will say that I prefer the feel of the satin finish on the Fender neck. Regardless of neck finish, my left hand stops noticing the difference after...

    Warwick tapewound inquiry

    Never tried Warwick tapes, but I was very satisfied with the LaBella whites. I still have my original set from around 8 years ago.

    What type of bass sounds like this tone?

    Agreed on the midi, sounds like some kind of virtual P bass. IK Multimedia's Modo Bass sounds really close. edit: Song is dope too

    I stand by my previous statement regarding cargo shorts/pants. ;)

    What VSTs/Sims are you guys using lately?

    I have TH-U, wish it had more bass amps. The stock cabs are pretty good though. I hadn't heard about Darkglass Ultimate until your post, I might have to check it out this weekend.

    TalkBass Sartorial Advice

    Cargo pants; the number of pockets a bass player possesses has a direct and positive correlation to their skill level.

    What VSTs/Sims are you guys using lately?

    I could be mistaken, but I think there's a similar thing with the IR effect block as well. The lack of nesting/subfolders is the only real issue I've had with Genome. Thanks again and enjoy your weekend!

    What VSTs/Sims are you guys using lately?

    Hey Ross, I've been getting a ton of enjoyment out of the new Genome update. The A2 NAM support has really helped me to tweak control parameters less and play more. Is there any way I can better organize the Capture folder? I would love the ability to create subfolders so I can have the...

    Give up fretless?

    When I play fretless I treat it as more of a solo instrument. I'll typically use more modulation effects (mainly reverb) and take advantage of the more "vocal" qualities that fretless basses have. Try different strings; like cobalt flats, nylon tapewounds or maybe even roundwounds if you're not...

    Ibanez SR Standard 5-string

    Used SRs are probably the best value/quality on the market (imo), if you can find one upgraded it can easily be your main bass. Once you get to the SR800+ models, they blow away everything in the price range. The natural finishes are pretty fragile though, so watch your zipper/belt buckle.
