The DXR / DXS series takes Yamaha into serious sound reinforcement territory.

Now that Yamaha are aligned with French high end sound reinforcement gurus Nexo, the resulting new DXR / DXS active boxes are absolute compact monsters, pumping out amazingly clean, clear, solid sound at unbeleivable levels.

The prices are low for gear of this calibre and they will knock the socks off the competition.

Reason 6 has some new effects that you can add on the fly.

There are a lot of things you can do on the fly.

Many audio programs claim you add this effect or that treatment on the fly.

Problem is, how is that fly going? After having all this processing done on her/him by musicians and programmers all over the world, this must be one really exhausted fly.

Not do mention distorted, convoluted, reverberated, echoed, delayed, compressed, limited, expanded, equalized, panned, filtered, attenuated, boosted, harmonized, retuned, pitch shifted, pitch corrected, remixed,  ….. but not yet deleted.

The Fly

Sadly, on Sunday December 4th 2011 the great Hubert Sumlin passed away at the age of 80.

The late great Hubert Sumlin - guitar legend

Hubert rose to fame for his fantastic guitar playing in the late Howling Wolf’s band.

Hubert’s masterful and soulful licks influenced every blues guitar player from Jimi to Eric and everyone in between.

Chart toppers like The Rolling Stones, Cream, Led Zeppelin and The Doors all owed a debt to Hubert. He always sounded 40 years ahead of everyone else and recently made the Top 100 Guitarists Of All Time list.

Hubert Sumlin is one of the reasons why I play guitar like I do.  Whenever someone picks up a guitar to play some blues, Hubert is in there somewhere.

Rolling Stones Mick Jagger and Keith Richards will be paying for his funeral, as a fitting mark of respect for the great man.

R.I.P. Hubert, we love you!

Jonathan Houseman Davis, lead singer of Korn, was born a Presbyterian, but converted to Catholic because his mother wanted to marry his stepfather in a Catholic church.

He was also a member of his high school’s bagpipe band.

(For those of you who have been to Hume Lake’s Christian Camps, if you know Cliff, the guy in charge, he was the guy who taught Jonathan Davis to play the bagpipe.)

Pipes rock! lml
