  1. MP3s are lossy and have that common 0'x seconds pause at the start and/or end that makes them unusable for loops. WAV or FLAC is the way to go when it comes to loops - imho.
  2. 23546 posts, I like that number.

    BTW, just being picky, Matt
  3. I was just speaking in generalities, but yes- most loops/effects that are in lossy audio formats generally come in wav anyway I believe.

    Thanks for the catch though
  4. I think I'm going to make some upgrades to my Fender Blues Junior. I've thought long and hard about getting an entirely new amp, but something about the portability and smallness of the blues junior appeals to me, as well as it's simplicity. I guess tons of people argue that a few mods and upgrades (notably a speaker upgrade) can make your amp sound entirely new, so I think I'll do that. Just ordered some new tubes because mine are going, and next up is a new speaker! Yippeee!


  5. Yes. Awesome. Wohooooooo!!!!! My first pedal... and it's a massive delay one!!
  6. hahahaha, I love how well does the GIGA DELAY thing with your statement

    Any Streets cover already?
  7. I know it's been stated time and again, but just another reason why it's 98% certain that the studio version of Bad was recorded with a telecaster:

    I took a few seconds from the album track, and then recorded myself playing the riff with my tele, ONLY with delay, no compressor or anything added, through my blues junior. See what you think! Pretty damn close if you ask me

    Something happened to the studio part after upload, it sounds a bit warbled, but you can still make out what's important, and I know you all know that tone all too well anyway
  8. Its perfect.
  9. Yeah, the studio version sounds a bit muffled or something, but your part is just... perfect, as Matt said.

    Nevertheless I think the Tele tone is maybe a little more "shiny" than it should... Which pickup did you use?
  10. I'd like to order anyone who hasn't read this article with the Edge from 1985 to read it now. Part 1 Part 2

    Thank you kindly! (and you as well Matt) But yeah I agree. There's a bit more bass on the studio version. I'm using the "middle" pickup selection on a tele. The neck pickup was way too bluesy and muffled, and the bridge way too trebly. So I think it's a combination of different pickups, different amp, and perhaps more bass on the recording when they recorded it.

    Thanks for that, Olof. Hadn't read it before.
