This is an idea for an open discussion that can go many different ways. I was reading through the worship course discussion and it occurred to me that there is an underlying theme running through all…Continue

As I was cleaning up my home office, I came across an article which I had printed out with an intent to write a counterpoint white paper. The text of the article can be found in this URL:…Continue

You're leading worship on Sunday morning and you're trying to tell if your congregation is engaged - as you're singing and playing. And for you and in your context, you probably have an idea of what…Continue

Stevo replied to Stevo's discussion 'The Overdrive Thread' in the group Worship Guitar Effects"Yea, very true. "Lower Quality" implies, "not so high fidelity". Frankly, electric guitars are not "high fidelity". The frequency spectrum we operate in is very narrow and a lot of the tone we're after is not very…"
"Sometimes the "lower quality" option is what we want. Consider speakers: the frequency response of our guitar speakers is spiky, narrow, and definitely colors the sound. Unacceptable in a full range audio application. Yet play the electric…"

Ever notice how many of these go by with zero repsonses, or just one or two?
Here's why:
1) The original poster never responds or quits responding.
2) The original poster censures your post because he/she doesn't agree with you. (Bosque!)
3) The subject is wacky and no on wants to talk about it.
4) The subject is very controversial and everyone is afraid to engage.
5) People don't know about them - they're near the bottom and not…

First - I'm only expressing my opinion here. I make no claims to represent the moderators in this post.
I would like to express some thoughts about these Blog Posts. Blog Posts are a nice feature of the forum. It's a great way to get into conversations in a sort of "panel" fashion where you and your audience converse one-on-one. I would encourage everyone to consider using this feature to have some lively discussions.
However, these things don't seem to be…

You're welcome.
BTW since we've been talking about cheap and good pedals, take a look at the Joyo versions of Tech21 'character' pedals. I bought the American (Fender) British (Marshall) and California (80s Boogie) versions and they all work really well, especially through full range systems like bass amps and PA.Also acquired a Mooer Elec Lady (electric mistress clone) that's good enough to keep on the board but not astounding. Better than the Boss BF2 I had, but there's a slight sibilance to the tone and it lacks both warmth and definition of higher notes.

I'm partly carrying on with this inerrancy discussion on the assumption that you quite enjoy a debate.
I also think it that the natural inclination of most folks on here is to agree with you on it, but I feel it is a good idea to show there are other ways of thinking.
I just wanted to say, this is the spirit in which I'm continuing. I hope this is OK.
Best wishes
Daniel

Yeah, I'd sort of guessed you used something like that. But your post made me laugh even without translating it back!
