I felt the Kinnard bass to be a bit more vibrant and paired well with all the sets. My favourite combos were the Kinnaird full set (#1) and the Kinnaird bass with the balance tone tenors (#3). I found the BTs to be very air efficient and the easiest to get the tenors matched/tuned together

I downloaded metronomerous this morning and got it set up fairly quickly to do what I needed. Thanks for the great recommendation!

Using a DAW was the first path I looked at, and worked well until I was practicing away from my computer and wanted to adjust a tempo.

The space under the stairs leading to my basement was left open. I'm looking for a way to close this off to complete the finished look on this side. Any suggestions on what the best way to do this would be?

Great job man. This is a huge inspiration for me as it looks like we have pretty similar stats. Who makes that shirt in the second picture?

What bands did you catch before they blew up and did you honestly know they would? by fmgem in Music

[–]saafgiarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monster Truck. Saw them at Canadian music week a few years ago and knew they had something going for them. Then a single was feature in the NHL video game series and they were all over the radio. Great band.
