It’s back from the dead! The TB Mega Thread.

[Schlatte]

i THOUGHT on the Motu 828 (it's a MK II), the two spots that are Instrument/Mic and have a combo xlr and 1/4 inch input had a pre. if it does, maybe it's a shitt/quiet 'un? again, mic idiot, ME. 

gahhh... didn't mean to insult you or something... the facepalms are for me not getting what was going on
anyhowzle: you could just diy some quick n' dirty me pre if you feel like it... and if you're a little diy-y... or if you're not a fan of teh tubez/ehx stuff you could build/ask somebody to build it for you: http://sound.westhost.com/project66.htm
I've never built it myself but there is positive feedback on it everywhere on the webs.

I would also recommend checking out THIS SITE!!!
They got some pretty cool shitz.

It's all pretty fancy balanced and shit... you could also just put together a simple OpAmp circuit or an emitter follower and test it out... but yeah...
here you go.. my valid contribution.

[Pollinator95]

Got another infraction. It´s like warwick.hoy´s, but censored and with a shitload of sarcasm.

sweet. good stuff to know.

ZERO offense taken. LIS, total git, meeeeeeeeee.

the Art tube pre was only $30, so if that works i'm golden. thanks!

[warwick.hoy]

I hate this,..."protect the children" attitude.

Yes let's cover all profanity,...and put foam on the bed corners,...and make em sit in a booster seat until they are ten,...and put a helmet,...knee pads,...wrist guards and a flak jacket on em when they go for a bike ride,....and put wine corks on the the butter knife,...and only let them use plastic scissors and make all toys out of nerf material and outlaw ball pits.

FUCK.

I'm all for keeping your children safe,....lead free paint good,...but with all this nannyism I feel like we've been raising a (several) generation(s) of pussies. Don't do anything new,...don't go outside cause there are scary things out there and you could get hurt,...don't expose yourself to satire/wit/sarcasm/openness about human sexuality cause it could contain "naughty language".

PS I deleted my TBOT and TBFX bookmarks. I'm done with that fucking place.

[Joe Gress]

Lolz.

My first infraction ever was the use of the word penis.

No, because it's not the penis that the sex offender needs. It's the feeling of power that he gets from the offence.

Yeah I sent a reply stating that perhaps cock, johnson, ramrod, rhythm stick, jackhammer, dick, sausage, vmangler, rinky-dink, or an of the other thousand other terms I could have used would have been more appropriate than the actual term? Especially in a thread called: what are your thoughts on mandatory castration for convicted sex offenders ? That was started by a mod?

I never got a reply.

[warwick.hoy]

Moderation is stoopid over there. No one is on the same page.

I didn't really get an infraction,...just a reminder warning whatever.

The BofA charging 5 bucks thread brought out some people talking about OWS,...I can't comment on whether or not 4 point 1 year infractions were dolled out (the degree of infraction I got for starting a thread about OWS) but the thread was sanitized only after I sent a PM to Packard wondering if the 3 or 4 posters talking about OWS were being treated with the same severity. He never replied.

That forum is too big for it's britches and I don't think any of the moderation is on the same page.

Make no mistake,...IDGAF about talkbass and the only reason I'm not working to get myself permaband is because I want to shill my pedals. Maybe I'll get warwick.hoy permaband and see if Heavy Drone can sign up under a commercial user license. I bet if I gave them a bunch of money I could say cock.

[bigchiefbc]

I got ding'd for saying "douche". Give me a fucking break. How is douche a swear?

[warwick.hoy]

And douche is a word used heavily over there. Or at least it has....maybe it's a don't disrespect your fellow TBers thing?

[behndy]

shit. i'm FOREVER rokking douche.

you gotsta be SUBTLE son. always INFER douchedom, never specifically call a TB'er a Vaginal Cleanser.

i agree with y'all though, silly and inconsistant. i could give less than three quarters of a half of a fuck though.

ILF is hellza more fun.

[DuoSonicII]

That forum is too big for it's britches and I don't think any of the moderation is on the same page.

That about sums it up. I've never had a run-in over there because I basically never post except to sell or buy. Some of the mods seem okay, others seem to be massively-egotripping douchehammers. And every time I take the time to read through a few threads, I wind up wanting to beat my head against my keyboard. Sooooo many dipshits.

I love that you can't post "F***" on Talkbass (not "FUCK", literally "F***"), but that this thread is okay (not that I mind it): http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f32/chicks-shows-10-march-dimes-815151/

MOTHERFUCKING PING PONG FUCKERS.

SHIT IS ACE!!!!

You know what really chaps my ass about Talkbass,....they have no Thumbs up Smiley.

(ctrl-c/ctvl-v time bitches)

And marquee

[Joe Gress]

Haha, fucking right!?!

I wish we still had the ping pong table that we had in garage for a long time. I'd be all forest gump on that shit for sure.

[Joe Gress]

The only pong I've played in recent history is beer pong. In that case I fucking love pong to pieces. Ping pong would be difficult again at first, but prolly be fun again.

[warwick.hoy]

I put the PP table down in one of the basement rooms were I was hoping to setup a Nice TV and home theater system,...the doorway into the room is extra narrow so I was wanting to get a couple "nice" futons for down there and a flat screen (I have an old analog TV currently) but I'm beginning to think;

Ping Pong > TV.
