    Default Do you play any instruments?

    I can play bass pretty well and I used to play trumpet but I sucked. I want to learn to play guitar but I have to save my money up to buy one first. Just figured I'de throw this out there cause I'm really into music and I'm bored so there we go.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    No, I don't. But, if I would start playing something, it would be electric or bass guitar. If I decide to buy one, which would you recommend?

    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    Yes, keyboards: piano, organ, synthesizers, samplers, etc.

    I enjoy mimicking other instruments (especially guitars and solo wind instruments) on synths, using technique (!), programming and layering, and controllers (wheels and joysticks, switch and swivel pedals, touch pads, the keyboard's velocity and pressure sensitivity, etc.), to bend pitch, vary modulation depth and rate, vary amplitude, frequency, or filter parameters, and crossfade between different patches etc., etc. It's interesting what you can do, and how good it can sound--but it's never as good as the real thing. Quite fun though.

    Spice the sound up with Metallica - Astronomy and I'll certainly hear you

    Ahem.. In 2 hours I'll be as unable as I am right now about playing my electric guitar..

    I'll post in to inform you about what may have changed by the time.
