Timmay!

At the moment my brother has boardband connected to his PC, and I am wanting to get same on mine as well...but I would either need to put in a new phoneline or buy a wireless rotator to connect to his network...I was just wondering, if we do split it. Is there anyway to cap us both so we can download 512mb each instead of sharing a 1gig bandwidth and making the download tip from one scale to the other on each PC when we both want to download something.

Lord Tim · March 11th, 2006, 07:17 AM

Without setting up some kind of gateway computer with some kind of net sharing, it's not really possible.

The wireless router is the way to go but it can a be a bit fiddly to set up initially. We have that running here and all 3 computers in the house are quite happily chatting away nicely.

What's the bandwidth speed running at the moment at you're place?

Lord Tim · March 11th, 2006, 07:45 AM

512, but going up to 1500 soon when Optus changes everthing over to their new system.

etc

Hey Tim, I remember reading in Guitarist Australia that Stu said he uses Bass amps for his guitars. Is this the same for you?

Lord Tim · March 12th, 2006, 06:34 AM

Yeah, in fact I was the one who turned him onto that.

He actually uses Crate guitar amps now, aparrently, but when he was using his J-Station processor, he'd run into a bass amp like I do.

Both of us ran into a standard Marshall style 300w guitar quad though.

Why the bass amp?

Well, the processor I use has everything in there I need - distortion, compression, etc. - I just need to make it louder, I don't need distortion or tone shaping or anything. So it'd either be a power amp with basic EQ to tailor the sound to the room if need be or a bass amp - which is essentially just that, but all together.

JausmetalJ · March 12th, 2006, 07:05 AM

Aah nice one.

Would it be a cheaper alternative to get a nice bass amp and a real good couple of pedals?

Lord Tim · March 12th, 2006, 07:16 AM

That's essentially what I have in the processor, coupled with the fact I have 200 patches right at my feet whenever I want it and no worried about patch cables going between the individual pedals.

You can pick up a multi FX processor or pedal fairly cheap these days that sounds decent if you want to go down that route.

You can get a 300w bass amp for about $600, a processor or pedal board for about the same or less and a quad for about $700 if you look around hard enough. Not bad to think you can have a complete rig for under $2000 with ultimate flexibility.

It may not keep the tube purists happy, but it works for me and is totally reliable.

Lord Tim · March 12th, 2006, 07:21 AM

Mostly me, but Dakk, Stu and Stevo as well.

Sometime this year, there's a project coming out that I did vocal sessions for called "From Beyond" (not sure if that's the name or the working title of the project) and it's almost all low and/or growly vocals that I did. For anyone who enjoyed the heavier vocal styles on the last couple of Dungeon albums, you'd probably really dig this. And the guitar work is INSANE!

The Amazer · March 13th, 2006, 10:43 PM

Okay LT: Top 5 guitarists and why...

no pussyfooting either! I'll allow some 'honorable mentions' but I want a set in stone top 5 goddammit! :P

Keeper of the Seven Cheese · March 14th, 2006, 02:39 AM

And singers too!

black_tooth_grin · March 14th, 2006, 02:48 AM

What was the first, best and worst gig you have been to?

Lord Tim · March 14th, 2006, 03:59 AM

OK, let me preface this stuff and say that 1: this stuff isn't in any particular order and 2: these are my own personal opinions, essentially my FAVOURITE performers, not who I consider the best (eg: I think Steve Vai is technically superior to Gary Moore but I infinitely prefer Gary's stuff to Steve's)

Fav' 5 guitarists:
Gary Moore - his solos make me cry!

George Lynch - freaky, bizarre, angular shredding
Paul Gilbert - freak!
Tony McAlpine - speed freak but very tasteful melodies
Glen Drover - a cross between Lynch, McAlpine and Gilbert. Scary.

Fav' 5 singers:
Geoff Tate (back in the day anyway)
Bruce Dickinson
Michael Kiske
Tony Martin
John Farnham

Best gig: Megadeth/Dungeon in Serbia or Maiden in Holland
Worst gig: Dungeon - Broken Hill 1990.

Keeper of the Seven Cheese · March 14th, 2006, 04:05 AM

I like all your picks man except I am still yet to hear Tony Martin. Paul Gilbert = Guitar God.

Nice to see Kiske there. Your top 3 singers are my top 3 :P

Lord Tim · March 14th, 2006, 04:14 AM

Try to track down Sabbath's The Headless Cross and Tyr. Godlike vocal performance on there.

JausmetalJ · March 14th, 2006, 04:17 AM

Michael Kiske is probably my favourite Ive heard

Ive heard no one do a better job of anything like what he does in I Want Out...

Keeper of the Seven Cheese · March 14th, 2006, 04:20 AM

I like his voice better in other songs. Who does Tony Martin sound like LT. What style voice does he have?

Lord Tim · March 14th, 2006, 04:46 AM

Kind of Dio crossed with Don Dokken crossed with Farnham... maybe a bit of Coverdale? Raspy and a great range.

The Amazer · March 14th, 2006, 04:13 PM

Tony Martin is a vocal god for damn sure.

The Headless Cross is by far my favourite Sabbath album - DEVIL AND DAUGHTTEEERRRRRR....

Fester · March 14th, 2006, 07:35 PM

LT what are some of your favourite dungeon songs? and which ones have you never/very rarely played live?
