Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

1 week with the G4...in line with the reviews so far, both in terms of strengths and flaws.

G4 Approved

Mine went back because of a flaw that factory reset could not solve.

I like mine so far. It's a nice compliment to my Maxx. On it's own, at the prices they're going for, it's a great buy. In comparison to the Maxx, the only advantage is the camera, as I can argue moto's packing of hardware and software mix is closer to what I want more than LG's.

That's why I stated it is really in line with the reviews, both with the strengths and weaknesses.

G4 Approved

With the Google Now launcher it was just fine for me. I might pick one up once my refund for the unit I bought comes back. In the meantime I will enjoy my 640 as usual.

Just waiting for my Surface Pro 3 to arrive tomorrow.

Hey Ed I never understood why anyone would want to get negative camber on a car. Besides thinking it eats up a tire faster. Why get it o.o?

Mini-review! Mini-review!

Oh, and when are you getting that 950?

G4 Approved

I think right now I'll hold off on the 950. After buying a new 8 inch tablet and my new band. I already spent 400+ in just a month

So I've got a buddy of mine who plays the drums.. Says he's been working on Tom Sawyer by Rush. He wants me to come play it with him... I've honestly never really learned that song all the way through. Come to find out, what I thought was a simple song, is actually pretty tough! It's from what, like 1981? But back when bands were talented and put a lot of musical thought into their songwriting.

Being a "drum-centric" song, the guitar parts, Alex Lifeson's solo, is exceptionally difficult for me to get the timing right. I've tried probably 50 takes tonight trying to record it! lol ugghh

I am a huge fan of Rush and a former keyboard player. Rush is very difficult to play, since they use a lot of odd time and switch between odd/even time in the same song. Yes and ELP are equally difficult. "Tom Sawyer" isn't bad to play compared to "YYZ".

I saw Rush back in 1991 on the "Roll the Bones" tour.

Very hard song to play.

Oh yeah, I know the whole album very well. It's just one I've never learned how to play for some reason. Yeah YYZ is a very technical piece... That one'll take some practice.. I do do a rendition of Red Barchetta on the guitar come to think of it.

"Former" keyboard player Laura? You gave it up?

I didn't have time for it during college and don't have an instrument any more. :unhappy:

I'd love to get a Minimoog some day.

Here's one of the recordings I did tonight. I'll probably get a copyright notice for playing the actual song in the background :/

Just get an iPad and an iRig "Keys Pro" MIDI controller keyboard. That what I did for my MiniMoog fix and it sounds amazing! The Synthezizer apps will surprise you at how far they've come!

So you're Alex, and your friend is Neil. Do you have a Geddy?

Thanks, I'm still polishing it. It'll sound a lot better recorded through the mixing/multitrack as a line-level recording rather than recorded audio of the ambient room sounds (raw sound from the guitar strings vs the actual recorded audio) by using the iPhone camera (or 1520, whichever) know what I mean?
