Being a noob it would really help me to hear samples of what people refer to:growl, tone, mid range, low end, effects of a low pass filter, etc.
Perhaps this has been done to death...perhaps not.

How about a common format for post:
mp3 file (upload as attachment...will this work here?)
Bass:
Neck:
NeckType:
Body:
Frets:
Fingerboard:
Bridge:
NeckPU:
MiddlePU:
EQ/Tone controls

This might serve us to give us a common reference point for discussions, etc.
Plus if someone can test and post frequency - imagine how much we could learn!

I tried to upload my sample, but the 150K limit will make uploading samples an issue.
I am willing to take samples and post them on my web site, if ya'll want to do this.

Thanks FC - that's a start.
Keavin - was there a sound sample on your page that I missed?

oops - found it - thanks

In answer to your question; no, you can't upload sound files to the board. Most folks here have sound files on other servers and link to them.

Hi, it's Alembic, trust me it will do what you want...Mark

olieoliver · « **Reply #11 on:** July 01, 2007, 02:11:42 PM »

Tell me where and how Danno, I'd like to have a copy.

Me too! Post a website where it is available for purchase. Maybe there should be a section in the forum where Alembic club members could post there commercially available CD'S and DVD'S. I ordered the Apache Indian DVD and I would love to get the Doomtree CD also.

David Houck · « **Reply #13 on:** July 01, 2007, 06:05:50 PM »

You can get the Doomtree CD at Amazon.com

dannobasso · « **Reply #14 on:** July 02, 2007, 07:03:13 AM »

You are all too kind! Its also available at Best Buy, Virgin, FYE and other retailers. We are distributed by Koch so any local shop can order it. As Dave so kindly posted, Amazon, CD now, Ebay etc. Careful that an ebay one is not a demo. The full version has some video of rehearsals and recording/mixing. Thanks in advance!
