Thanks for the comments guys!

Unfortunately I've lost the little leaflet Tim puts in the box with the ratings. I believe, however, that the bridge was very similar to the quoted 16k for the alnico version (possibly a little lower - 15.8k springs to my mind, but I don't know where from).
It's paired with a standard AV Nailbomb which is incredible. Very underrated imo.

My copy of the mp3 doesn't do the volume thing, but I'll normalise all my future stuff just to make sure.

If anyone wants the POD patch, PM me with an email address and I'll send it over.

Cheers,

Nolly


Cheers, thanks for the info!

Audacity recording software does a normalize on mp3's too, you can download it for free. Probably it would prevent the clipping if you either set input or output volume(dont know the pod) to a lower setting, would increase dynamics too. You can always increase volume afterwards.

I didn't realise you were in Red Seas Fire. That stuff sounds really cool man, can't wait till you guys get a full line up.

I noticed it on my headphones, it basically sounds like its compressing really heavily. You got a compressor turned on the Pod?

I'll do some more recording when I'm next home - I don't have my POD up at uni at the moment. Working on getting my Cobra recorded, it's sounding ridiculously good at the moment!

If you want to hear some more of my playing, there are a couple of other clips up on my soundclick page, but hopefully I'll be adding stuff more often in the future.

Also, my youtube page is in my sig. I seem to be making a lot of videos of myself out of boredom at the moment.

Thanks for the advice Henk, I've got Audacity, but only really use it convert wav files to mp3s. Think I'll have to explore all the different stuff you can do with it!

Dez: Cheers mate, Pete and I are both big fans of you guys, would be awesome if we could gig together sometime when we've got a vocalist! Let me know when your EP is done, definitely want a copy of that!
I think I've got a compressor on in the clip. It definitely sounds overcompressed now when I listen back through headphones..

Definitely man! Sounds like an absolute plan! How is the vocal search going?

I think if we can't find an apt vocalist by April I'll just do my best to get some vocals done myself on it, just so that we can get a demo out there and that we're not a complete standstill.

*drools*

FIT!!

"Ethereal Chords" sounds very Buckethead-y to me and that can only ever be a damn good thing.

Nice one! As Pete says, we really want to shave [freak typo, but I'll leave it in because I find it rather amusing] a vocalist by April, otherwise we'll have to endure Pete singing... :)
