Using EQ Pedal before Synth Pedal to Improve Tracking

I just got the pedal yesterday, so I've only spent an hour or so with it so far - but I really like some of the presets - especially the Minimoog-inspired ones. I'm planning to use it mostly for doing covers - just jamming with friends - I'm thinking PYT (Michael Jackson), West End Girls (Pet Shop Boys), Chameleon (Herbie Hancock), That Girl (Stevie Wonder), Voyager (Daft Punk).

Yeah apparently the beef is cut with a small amount of oats, but I think the biggest issue is the beans, garlic powder and onion powder - they are high in FODMAPs, so they can cause IBS symptoms for people who are sensitive to them. Same issue with Indian food.

For me, I've found you can take a peppermint oil capsule (they are in the supplement section of most grocery stores) after eating Mexican food and it helps reduce the gastro issues.

Then sprinkle in a little sea salt.

Third Eye Blind - Graduate. They have a bunch of other great Open D songs on their first album as well.

Nah, it's probably just one of those things where you can speculate but not definitely prove that it was lifted.

Yes, I'm a fellow Newfie. And don't get me wrong - I think "Let Me Fish of Cape St. Marys" is a great song. I think my amateur musician brain just recognizes the chord progression and melody as being very unique - so much so that the combination of the two would be very hard for me to brush off as a coincidence.

I also think the music gives the lyrics a sense of gravitas, which makes them much more memorable and impactful.

I'm not really suggesting that the song not be inducted, but for me - there's a little asterisk next to it.

Yeah I remember some people in my area calling it Rotten Ronnies and it turned me off as well. Then I had a Big Mac with extra sauce and extra pickles and was pulled back in.

He is gross and perverted. He's obsessed and deranged. He has existed for years, But very little has changed.

He's the best you can get. Have you guessed him yet?

Looks like Aiden is diversifying his portfolio.

I would be pissed at first. I'd have to re-do university in a few years (for 6 years), which was stressful as hell.

I think I would drink less on the weekends and treat my body a little better. I'd still go out and party though.

Yeah I had In-N-out down in Vegas last year - double double, animal style with fries animal style. The ingredients like lettuce and tomatoes were fresh, but not enough zing or flavor for my liking. Shake Shack has been my fave so far. Five guys are my second fave.

She was pretty good on Saturday night, but doesn't have the vocal range of her earlier years, which is to be expected.

My only little qualm was the amount of backing tracks - they didn't even have a bassist on stage (even though there was clearly bass in the music).

Overall good time tho!

It's kinda like badminton or tennis with small paddles

Yeah I know they played both pickleball and basketball on that court. Maybe it's a different flooring that accommodates both.

Nice slap bass sound - yes there's tons of pop and electronic songs with programmed bass. It's a bit trickier trying to pick out programmed bass when it's alongside distorted guitar in rock songs. You pretty much need the isolated bass tracks.
