Members RoboPimp Posted June 25, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 wow, attacking a fellow forumite for absolutely no reason, class act guys who attacked what?if someone feels that comments about their guitar rig is a personal attack then perhaps they put a bit too much value in it. So I think the rig sounds like poop, that doesn't mean I think the guy playing it is poop. He is probably a fine individual who just happens to own very expensive gear that sounds very bad to me.

Members GodBlessTexas Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 $3000? I have 2/3 of that invested in just my amp, and I know guys with much more than that in just one piece of gear. But that video was pretty.... 'interesting?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that any "high class" than me making my own judgments about a guitar rig? I don't think so as mine is directed towards an inanimate object with no feelings where you are directing your admonishment towards a person and have no real constructive advice only a "I'm better than you" demeanor.What you see as low class I see as a valuable demonstration.

(It probably sounds great in person with the right settings on the amp though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members freetime Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 Its probably not the right settings on the guitar. U have to dial in everything right to get a decent fingerpicking sound out of buckers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mistersully Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 jet plane flying through an echo chamber under water with modulated delay is where it's at....having modulated delay if you're under water in an echo chamber would be doubling up now wouldn't it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Axe_34 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 mine is directed towards an inanimate object with no feelings Umm, correct me if I'm wrong but the sentence "How to make a $3000+ rig sound like poop" is most definitely directed towards the player and not the rig.

Members Axe_34 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 maybe he is referencing the guitar itself Maybe. But given the op's well-established history of cutting up just about everything and everyone at sometime I seriously doubt it. I would assume rig = amp + guitar. But, hey, it's an assumption and I could be wrong. But if anyone around here doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt, it's the op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T3 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 having modulated delay if you're under water in an echo chamber would be doubling up now wouldn't it but with different rates, hence the awesomeness... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Axe_34 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 not that RoboPimp needs support, but I for one have no issue with him... He attacked my playing in not one, but two threads. I've only been playing for a year and while I don't give two farthings what some anonymous guy at HC thinks, I've seen him do it to posters time and time again. He's not a funny troll. He's predictable, boring and, worst of all, mean spirited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Teahead Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 ... He's not a funny troll. He's predictable, boring and, worst of all, mean spirited. Chill out, he's not a funny troll because he's not a troll, he's a forumite with an abrasive way of voicing his opinions. That doesn't make what robo thinks any less valid than the guys who dress up what they're saying. I find him honest, refreshing and best of all entertaining.

Members hangwire Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 He attacked my playing ... and while I don't give two farthings what some anonymous guy at HC thinks ... mean spirited.so just ignore him if you don't care, then don't careseriously, it is the internet... sometimes an anonymous shock value typed phrase is what is needed to get a message through. If you are still offended when you log off, that is weird... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Axe_34 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 I find him honest, refreshing and best of all entertaining.Ever been on the other end of his "honesty"?Which is basically him voicing his opinion like he's the god of tone....Listen, I like humour and honesty as much as anyone else. I guess I just find him to be really mean spirited. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TweedBassman Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 if i had a nickel for every time robo busted on someone... i'd have 11,386 nickels. i used to think he was a prick, a jerk, mean-spirited etc etc... then i realized i took the internet WAY too seriously. to all the guys coming over from the 'electric guitar' forum, please don't be offended. we bust on everyone. constantly.

Members Axe_34 Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 Damn!!! It's been bugging me since I couldn't put my finger on it --- he reminds me of Shinshin in War and Peace, the cynical old courtier who's always waiting to bust someone's chops with a bon mot. His character wore on me after a while too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
