    Grab another gear, people!!!

    Geez! I sometimes feel as though I am the only human in my area working, driving, walking, and generally MOVING with any SPEED whatsoever. Just trying to get something to eat around here takes forever. Getting to work I drive on roads with 45 mph speed limits. And these old ladies and...

    Amazing Slow Downer issues.... What else is out there?

    OK, this will be sort of an open-ended question loosely based around Amazing Slow Downer. I use a Google Play subscription for learning music. I can stream songs on PC and download them on my phone for listening while I work. I'm not married to either Amazing Slow Downer or Google Play...

    Do long, slow songs or ballads have any role in a bar bands setlist?

    Previous band I was in was fond of playing 2 or 3 long, slow songs and even ballads in one night for gigs that were in your average bar full of people drinking and having a good time. Current band Im in seems to have the train of thought that those types of songs really don't belong in that...

    Is practicing fast for too long bad for playing slow?

    I ve been working on fast pasages, improvising and fast stuff in general since years ago for a jazz kind of band. So it seems i gained stamina, nerve, muscle, dont know how to call it, on the right hand. The thing is.. when i got to play slow, with other bands in general, its kinda strange how...

    Slow attack compressors, similar to the Diamond/Mad Professor?

    Hi guys, Do you know of any compressor pedals with a slow attack, kinda like the Diamond BCP or the MP Forest Green? I already have a MXR M87 which is hecking fast and works perfect as a utility comp/limiter, but I'd like a different flavour also, less utility and more "character".

    MarkBass warrantee slow service

    Hello All, I purchased a LittleMark Tube 800 head last year and have had problems with scratchy intermittent volume/tone pot behavior. I tried living with the issues thinking that using and moving the dials might even out the response, but things have gotten worse so I sent it to VST in...

    Fast and Slow Quarter Notes?

    A gentleman has been kind enough to post instructional videos on YouTube. He also includes a link to a PDF that he, again, was kind enough to create for everyone (for free, I might add). The video I watched was for Hysteria by Muse. It's a fast song and a lot of fun. The tempo is written as...

    First, I'm not a super tech P.C. user and I'm sure I've caused this some how..... Never had this problem before till last week. Don't have internet available where I live so when I'm some where that does have it I always download T.B. threads to my H.P. P.C. to read later. Recently, the whole...

    Slow songs?

    Anyone know of any slow songs with nice bass lines? I've been wanting to try something a bit new and different. I'm thinking of stuff more along the lines of R&B, soul, smooth jazz, or soft rock.

    Loop and Slow Down Software

    If you want to do your own tab or notation, it helps to have loop and slow down software. There are lots of them, and you can find plenty of discussion elsewhere on TB. If you goal is to just learn a riff here and there, any of them work fine. If you want to do a detailed transcription of an...

    Double Bass Slow solos over fast jazz tunes

    This is something I struggle with from time to time, so I'm wondering if anyone has any general advice, and if possible, some good examples of good slow bass solos over fast tunes, as I'd like some ideas to transcribe and study. My reason for asking for this is I often get asked to solo over...

    Extremely slow bass build with a few questions

I am very slowly getting back to full time work(four kids and stay at home dad) so funds arent the greatest. That being...

    Double Bass Slow Version of Giant Steps

    I came across a version of Giant Steps by Pat Metheny that they play in a rather slow tempo. I don't really care for his version, but was intrigued by the concept. Are you aware of any other recordings of a slower version of this song?

    Slow Songs to play for power trio

    I did a search and the last thread asking about slow songs to play is over 4 years old, so I thought I'd open a new one to see if anyone had additional suggestions. EDIT - There seems to be some confusion about what a slow song is - it's a song that you can slow dance to. ;) I play in a power...

    Valerie - Amy Winehouse Slow Version

    Does anyone have tabs or a transcription for the slow version. Apparently there are faster versions of this song but I'm looking for some help figuring out this version: It's Eb and F on the verses with Ab G for the chorus with a walk up the Bb but I can't figure out the cool stuff. Thanks

    Opening with a slow instrumental?

    So this band I've been with for 3 years opens every show with this Woody Herman tune "Blue Flame", and we play it even slower than the studio recording. My issue with opening with such a slow number with so much space is it puts so much pressure on the soloists. Maybe we just aren't such great...

    Slow Filter Sweep on BOSS GT10B

    Hello Bassland, How would you recommending getting a slow filter sweep on the BOSS GT10B? I tried using the sub wah and expression pedal, but its not really cutting it. I'm looking for something more dramatic and synth like. The filter needs to open slowly over 3.5 bars. I'm thinking about...

    Painfully slow

    For quite some time now, accessing TB on mobile has been painfully slow- to the point the phone stops trying to connect. Even when it's working it can take 45+ seconds to move from one sub forum to another. Frankly, I've not renewed my supporting membership because I so seldom log into TB now...

    Over the last week or so I've noticed that when viewing threads with embedded photos the photos seem to take forever to load, and some of them don't finish at all, they just kind of quit half way through. Once in a while the bottom half of the pic will be a jumble of colored bands. The site as...

    SA Orbital owners: sound clips of phasers, w/slow envelope mod source?

    Anybody out there using the Orbital as an "envelope phaser" to borrow a phrase from Pigtronix? I keep trying to love their BEP, but it's just not flexible enough I suppose. Figured the Orbital might be, but I haven't found one around to try. So, anybody out there have one and willing to make...

    SA Bass OFD very slow to engage...?

    Hey! I like this pedal, but I have a very strange issue: After first power-up, even if it's a few good minutes on power already - when I engage it it often gives a very long "swell effect", i.e. it doesn't engage immediately but rather starts giving almost 0 output and then the sound gradually...

    Crazy Slow

    Is it just my computer, or is something funky going on this morning? TB is really slow this monday morning, and all else seems fine. Nothing wrong with Facebook, or any other websites. I also notice some new stuff here (the tags) but that might just be that I never noticed them before.

    Sweepy phaser that preserves low-end?

    I'm looking for a wide, rangy, sweepy, slow phaser (for brightening up those long boring droney basstones) that won't suck out my lows. Looking for that takeoff sound, just ascending and descending in a very slow pace, but without destroying my lows while it's taking off :P I've been looking at...
