Malcolm-Edge Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 DJing is a true art. The techniques involved are pretty complicated and hard to master. Mallet Percussionist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdplayBirdsFly Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 As well as your guitar wants too :P You need a loan or something! :D hehe, I know... really! maybe yard sales would be better money-wise....besides blatantly stealing stuff for free :P ugh! why must playing music (to quote you) be such an "expensive hobby"???? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 No idea. Everything costs money. And yes yard sales can be okay if you find a Lovetone pedal for $40. Yes fakfak that was a stab at you:P Still a cheaper hobby than drugs:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 "Yes fakfak that was a stab at you" You wound me! :laugh3: Seriously though, over the years, I've been able to find quite a bit of cool gear at yard sales and the like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Gotta look though. Thats my problem! I have to wake up early....and i usually work to pay for it anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 " I have to wake up early" That's the bane of my existence as well. As low man on the totem pole at my new job, I've been saddled with the 6:00 a.m. shift every day the last two weeks.:thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Im fairly high up. But I still get mornings on weekends cause i do night during the week. the 6 ams always suck. Especially this sunday! Mind you it seems lately I only get them when Im going to a concert later that day. First Coldplay, this week Carlos Santana!

dorffy Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Bought myself an MXR Micro Amp and a ProCo RAT2 (Reutz mod)! Looking forward to see what they can do with my Blackheart Little Giant tube amp in company with my std am tele :cool:. Really sucks that the amp hasn't got an effects loop, as my Boss RV-5 don't feel at home in front of the amp. I wish i had my own house with noone nextdoor, so i could rig up a real Fender amp....:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Good little set-up you got there. Im looking forward to my RAT should be in by now... Also Ive been playing with a band, and i love it, I now know what I was put on this earth for. The thrill of playing with 4/5 people and sounding not half bad. We had a few people walking by listen for a minute or two. So much fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorffy Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I need a band too... can't sit around and play by myself all the time :P Also, a Line6DL4 is next on my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Look at the DD-20 too. Its the Boss equivalent and I love it. I suggest going in to a store and try them both out extensively. Its a lot to invest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorffy Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 www.openstomp.com This thing might be worth checking out. An open-source effects pedal :D. Probably sucks for distortion/overdrive, but could be awesome for customized digital effects. 350 bucks is quite a bit though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm-Edge Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 My RAT came in yesterday! And wow blows my Boss out of the water! Went From Coldplay/Oasis to Foo fighters to Metallica in 30 seconds and sounded amazing too. Fits great with my Giga delay and FM212 DSP. I'm gonna post a pic soon hopefully!

I've got one from the early 90's, and have done the Reutz mod. Makes it a million times better. You really get the "yellow" sound! I'm gonna snatch an LM308 op-amp from the lab at my uni, and replace the existing one, as i've heard it's a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Its a new RAT 2, but its still got a beautiful sound on it. Yellow sounds great, and Talk. Now its to save up for my Thinline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
