Re: Lack of inspiration (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Funny thing was guys just after I posted this thread I had an idea which might be good .
I always start with lyrics Ed as I feel that lyrical content is important although some times I've written songs that I feel are just for fun and don't have a message other than enjoy this .
Brian the drug influenced stuff will re emerge ,some time ago I did a song called prescription blues which talked about my codeine problem that I had some years ago ,thankfully behind me now .

Topic: Lack of inspiration (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Since my surgery a couple of months ago I've not been able to write any new songs other than the drug addled Full Circle that I posted just after I came home.I need inspiration ,feels funny not being able to produce some new material.

Re: Digitech Trio (60 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Gonna try mine live at Kendal arts festival next weekend I've programed 3 tracks into it and will use it separate to the looper which has the remainder of my set in , biggest problem is making sure all the levels are ok when using loops ,drum machine and now the trio so I've made notes and will mark positions for all the knobs etc on my song sheet. Sounds great .
Biggest challenge for me is standing for the duration of the set as my guitar rubs badly against the scar tissue from my recent surgery so after a few minutes I find I'm quite sore and uncomfortable .

Re: He Must Be Mad (18 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
If I had ten grand to spend on a guitar I'd buy somthing with a bit of history ,last year Alvin Lees 335 was up for sale in one of the London shops at 4k I would buy that and give the remaining 6 k to charity

Re: PC keyboard problem (16 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
On your tool bar at the right hand bottom corner is there a single letter E or H or U perhaps if its present you may be able to toggle back to uk settings ,I think you've defaulted to USA key pad settings We had this on some of the pcs at Uni a few yrs back I think it was after the tech guys upgraded to windows 7 from xp hope this helps .

Re: Digitech Trio (60 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
alternately as there is 3 channels you could pre record 3 chord progressions for 3 songs providing it doesnt loose the information when switched off then it would be a good live aid for an open mic performance where you only get to play 3 songs as a rule .

Re: Digitech Trio (60 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Watching the vid i get the impression its more of a practice tool or a recording aid than something to be used in a live performance as you would have to record your chord progresion at the start of each song.Am I correct .
