james90 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Reapers is unbelievable Seriously. I was trying to hold out until it was officially released, but... yeah that didn't work If there was one way to describe my reaction, it would be the guy at 1:13 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCk-GMupePk and just a reminder - we can't post the links here.

james90 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 So what's this lever thing exactly? there's one in NYC, and I figured out exactly where... but I have no idea what this exclusive content would be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerd herd Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Not sure really, my nearest one was still pretty far away last time I checked. I think someone found one and that's how we ended up getting Reapers early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I honestly have no idea what's meant to be happening with all those levers, that thread moves so fast at the moment. All gone a bit tits up though by the looks of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATE: The loonie to my right did not actually end up killing anyone. He, instead, was reduced to tears upon listening to Guiding Light and had to be removed from the pit, lured by a pacifier and wheeled out in a stroller.

Not worth it in that case, since it's already been spoiled for me. The one in NYC seems to be the bowery ballroom... I figured I shouldn't go in there randomly asking what I win for finding the lever Did you already listen to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave. Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 What is it with this album and the lack of low-mids? They want the kick drum to be the sub-filler but they don't add in the low-mids the bass usually occupies when it's the sub-filler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouCantEditSam Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Need a quick bit of soldering advice! The 3 sticky out bits (see link) I need to bend one back and solder it onto the bottom of the pot, am I alright to undo the little clip holding it down? My wiring diagram isn't very helpful. http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/images/large/005-6244-000.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It needs to be bent back and soldered to the back of the pot for a grounded connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wiring diagram isn't very helpful. http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/images/large/005-6244-000.jpg Just bend it back, no need to unclip it. Some people also just run a small piece of wire from the lug to the back of the pot and solder that, but I much prefer just doing the lug right to the back, one glob of solder and done. James90: Yea I listened to it, for the most part they nail the song live. I find the verse is much heavier live than it was in the recording, but I'm okay with that since it gives the album song a big transition to heavyness for pre-chorus and chorus. The chorus vocals are soooo much clearer than what Matt uses live for his vocal effects, so glad this is the case! They had played Reapers how many times live and nobody was really certain what the lyrics for the chorus were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what he could be using live vs. in the recordings... I wonder if the sans amp or whatever it was is still being used (the one he used during absolution) Also, anyone get their code yet? I can't remember if I got one for mercy, but I don't think I did... definitely got one for psycho though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Famous last words Also, I imagine my album preorder from the .mu shop will arrive while I'm gone (and iTunes might not work since mine is set for the U.S. store) so what's a decent shop to buy CDs at in London?

james90 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Niel, I think you should get a humbucker for your guitar. THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n--1hOHhk8M I think I have the picture of the wiring in mine somewhere. Surely they make a 5 way rotary switch though... the fact that it's a 6 way with two positions that are duplicates has always bugged me. But I'm guessing the overall design was pretty thrown together, seeing as it's basically a glorified londaxe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil. Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I put a humbucker in it. But I've no neck pickup in it. So the switches I have wired for it are an on/off/on kill switch and a series/parallel switch. I did look at a rotary control, so with a neck p90 it would switch between combinations of the three coils. I'm happy with how it sounds now though.
