nice very nice stuff, i got a question for you about the "xt live", how many patches can u get for each bank??, and when you change between patches does the sound gets cut off every time you press on any pedal?? thanks keep on playing...
I feel bad for bassists. They don't usually get as much notoriety as, say, the guitarist or singer. That why I play guitar. XD but seriously, man. Nice job on the 15000 views.
Do you know how to use the pod XT just an effects deck?
I can't get any decent sounds out of it like basic distortion or anything without using the amp models & I don't wanna have to model other amps to get the effects I need.
Hey Les Jr., can you suggest to me my first Auto Wah for $120 down??? Thanks Brother. Have you ever used a MXR M-188 Bass Auto Q Auto Wah Pedal? Thanks....BTW...bad ass man!!!
nice playin.. im trying to get my slap style down... loads of tutors say youre suppost to play with your thumb/palm paralel to string... with your arm more horizontal.. but ive become used to playing like in this video, with a more vertical stance and can play pretty fast... any suggestions?
u wanna have ur thumb out like your hitchiking, not only straight, but with the top part bent back and erect, and u wanna have ur popping finger(s) in an arc shape, not straight or too curved. When you flick your wrist to slap with ur thumb flick so that ur thumb hits the string and then VERY quickly returns to the original position, or follow through past the string and hit the string again on your way back up to perform a double slap. with practice you will get very fast.
bitchin dood! i gotta get my bass fixed (jack is all fubar'd) in preparation for my new amp coming.... a peavy tko115 400watt combo amp! i'll have to upload more bass tracks... im not as good as you are but check out my jam anyway...
wow, i hope if you're in a band they give you some decent stuff to play, i get really annoyed when talented bassists just have play simple, boring basslines, they should be just as interesting as the guitar parts
yeah i agree. i played with a couple of groups as a bassist and accompanied a VCE group and i agree that there are so many songs where all the bassist plays is just the root notes in a progression (there are exceptions such as schism and call of ktulu). thats the one bad thing about rock bass, there are few songs that are challenging or fun. of course there are some really good songs like addicted to that rush and hysteria.
@ChubsyMalone180 well of course i do make up bass lines in some situations but i was referring to a situation i find alot of bassists (i know) in. that is the situation where the band plays songs that only use boring bass lines. this of course does not apply to all bassists at all and i know there are many situations where bassists get a really good part in songs.
@apollominor: dude, playing bass is what you make it. Ofc rock music is not gonna make you just play boring. you might not get to go on a crazy slap-rampage every song, but hey, the guitarists often just strums chords! =) but just root notes? =P then there is something wrong with the bassist or the band
true that , i agree but i was just saying stuff based on observation of bassists i know. but there can be many reasons which i won't really bother going into. ill just leave it at that.
I had this pedal for sooooo long before I figured it out. I haven't used it in a while but there's a way to do it through the options. But, if u push down on the toe end of the pedal ull feel a click and it switches to wah. Same thing to switch it back.
that's awesome...i figured it out...I've had it for a little over a year and just now started figuring it out...i didn't like it at first cause i felt it took power away from my amp...but I'm just a dumb ass that doesn't like manuals lol.....thanks man
dude man dude man dude man I"m at a los for words shit join my ban............dude where do you live man well no what state holy shit man i play guitar but not base and well i need others and i need your sound..............or if anything you need to remain in a band bro
