The Doom Room: ILF Edition

it's all programmed? i think the drum tracks on your shit sound great.

[D.o.S.]

well hopefully its a good as y'all claim. I know I could build a clone but i am not sure if the time investment is worth it.

One of my favorites, but there's a reason the market can support a gazillion different BMP-inspired effects.


Skully uses Garageband for drums, I think.

Thanks dude! Yep, they're all programmed. I've made a pretty great effort on making sure that the reverbs emulate how I would mic a real kit as well

And DOS is right, the drums are 100% Garageband. Except for EARLY Savage Cross. I'll never give up that secret.

This dude is a drummer.

You bring a 160w Acoustic 230 SS head and a not very efficient Laney 4x12 to rehearse with a guy and he says it's far too loud and that the dirt tone is reverberated and fuzzy...... it's drone music, you doucheface, what were you expecting me to be doing, playing a fucking banjo? I only have fuzz pedals in my board and my reverb is always on. Fuck you, yeah? I told him i liked volume beforehand. He should have taken shit seriously. And i was using about 15-20% of the volume i'd actually use if he wasn't a total vagina.

We start playing, he complaints about everything, telling me how my shit should sound like, doesn't like the tuning, and after 5-10 minutes of playing and it sounding like shit he starts lecturing me about tempos and shit. You can't even play a decent, powerful, drum part, and you're worried about shit not being musically perfect in the first 5 minutes? We have a fucking genius over here.................... I hate everything...........



/rant.

Why are drummers like this? I went through 5 drummers before we got someone who actually got it. One guy was a complete twat...he was a mercenary...basically he was in 3 other bands ranging from country to rock; he came along to rehearse with us and the first he says when i play one of the riffs is..."there one note too many in that riff"...so i said, "no there isnt, but this riff is not in standard 4/4...you need to change it up a bit or play 4/4 and it will come around to being on time". But he started complaining that you cant do song like that and that it wont catchy etc etc...after 30 mins we wrapped it up and he said..."i need to play songs in 4/4 because i play in a few bands and cant dedicate myself to anything complicated"!...i was really lost for words...what do you say to that?!?

Fuckin drummers...but if you persevere you might get a good one and those ones are worth their weight in gold!

This has a little bit of Major in the making but its got some different odds and ends. The preamp is a mix of a Superlead/Superbass but there is a 3rd input that goes to an EF86. You can run all 3 inputs in parallel and mix them or you can cascade the bright and dark into the EF86 for a lot more gain. The tone stack is a modded Marshall BMT but with a 2nd mids control all along with a pre phase inverter master. The phase inverter is right out of a Ampeg V4.

Skip you did right. If that dude is going to be playing out then he need sto learn to respect the other musicians he is playing with. Why would it ever be appropriate to try and go back on stage after another band has already started playing? That is really disrespectful and it hurts the performance because you now are distracted by some weirdo. Don't worry you handled it right.

It's not quite the same thing, but as another sympathetic note for Kev, when I was watching Hobbit earlier in the year with my brother, these teenagers wouldn't shut up. I lost it. I turned round and said "WOULD YOU EVER SHUT UP!?" I immediately regretted it. The lads just got up and walked out. I should have been more patient and simply 'shhh'ed them, but I lost my temper. It happens, I keep telling myself. It helps ease my conscience.

Don't worry you did right. I though it was common courtesy to not talk in movie theaters, especially when you are near to other people. I mean if the place is empty and it is just you and your friends at 3 in the afternoon then feel free to do your own Mystery Science Theater but not in normal circumstances. This is also one of the reasons that I am excited that the Alamo draft house has announced plans to to build some theaters in my area. They have a very strict policy aout talking and cell phones where they will kick you out. And they also just happen to serve beer.

once i was was watching a movie and enjoying a delicious burrito but these fucking teenagers behind me were being so fucking obnoxious with their constant banter and comments. i stood up and turned around and threw my delicious burrito right into this kids face and yelled at him to shut the fuck up. it was awesome. it definitely worked. dude didn't say another word. i'm a way bigger asshole than you are. in skip's position i may have punched the fucker. stay off the stage dude.

id like to check the SC, but honestly I have not found a muff out there that is the end all be all for me. They are all pretty good but cant get over the hump. My faves are pharaoh and BB.

supercollider is fucking awesome. it's a high gain monster, but as long as that's what you want you will probably love it. great fucking pedal.
