MrDuck Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Finally restored my old telecaster, poor thing has been sitting under the bed since 2006. New wiring, new scratch plate, a setup and a new Seymour Duncan Hot Rails pickup. Sounds and plays AWESOME now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshVilla Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 For anybody who's interested in a bit of Jazz/Fusion, here's a couple of tunes that I did for a mate of mine the other week. I'm the fella on bass for these ones 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieZ Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I did some work this week for Metric and their sound guy showed me this snare tuning trick. I'm going to try it the second I get back home to my kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 (edited) re. above; just out of interest, many years ago c. 1978, I played in a band that was on the same bill as quite a well-known entertainer called Roy Castle. Fortunately we didn't have to back him as; A) I wouldn't have been up to it and he brought his own trio. His drummer used my drums, which at the time had an Evans batter head on the snare drum. He suggested I use almost the same technique as the geezer in this video with one tension rod slackened right off. What a coincidence and very interesting clip. PS for all those that have never heard of Roy Castle ('cos it was along time ago) he was on tv quite a bit but died of lung cancer which he reckoned had been made worse by playing in smoky venues.

JamieZ Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 The whole idea challenges my instinct to strive for even tuning all the way around the drum, but I think the idea is that the snare is not a typical drum, and what works for toms and kicks might not necessarily work for snare drums. Being able to dial in overtones (I like my drum sound relatively lively, personally) is a great option to have, and to be able to do it without extra muffling is great. So yeah, I'm going to give it a go on my snare tonight at the studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work in the audio-visual field and was wondering what equipment you use. If you wouldn't mind? I don't mind. I'm all software based. I sequence using Cubase (have done for years). A Past Forgotten was made using ProjectSAM stuff. I usually make dance music but I've been exploring other genres lately to keep things interesting, as well as remaking the original PSOne score from the original Tomb Raider (they're on my Youtube channel.) Glad to hear you guys enjoyed my music. Edit: Main theme from Tomb Raider I made below. Linked as I can't figure out how to embed a Youtube video with this new forum software. And it weirdly just worked. How odd. Edited September 16, 2015 by Sie Youtube linking jiggery pokery 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
