Mrk, does that aerial get better reception? Because, wow, is it ugly compared to the old one!

Got the same toaster. The control knob is useless. Anything below 4 and it comes out with only a hint of toasting. I just crank it up to 5 and wait until I can smell burning.

Has that Delonghi Toaster been modeled on a Dalek?

Quite chuffed with the saving, we were going to buy this exact one at some point.

Same reception, it's a lot nicer than the old bendy rc car aerial that looks like a thin ribbed phallus especially from side profile!

Got this from the inlaws:

Had a little glass last night and enjoyed it very much. Lots of flavour and smokiness.

Good toaster tip, thanks.

Currently got two bottles of Laphraoig 10 on my shelf. It's a really good whisky for the price. Try it, and then add a couple of drops of water to it. It mellows it out but opens up the nose a bit and allows the floral flavors to come through a bit more. I prefer it neat, but it's interesting to try nonetheless.

Some MIDI cables, had to order these to size as I need some that you can adjust the angles.

I got the length of the short one slightly wrong and had to do a slight loop, oops!

Laphraoig is one of my favourites - first tried it in a pub several years ago and I've been buying it ever since. It gets very mixed opinions from my friends, a few of them love it, but most hate it

Any chance of an updated photo of your whole pedal board?

Also, where did you get the MIDI cables from?

Being fitted at this very moment but not fully paid for yet, is it OK to post?

Andi.

This is pretty much the board (with a Fairfield Circuitary Meet Maude which i swap out with the Panther Cub depending how I feel).

I got the cable from Best-tronics from the States, normal off the shelf MIDI cables its too big and these guys also got me some much thinner cables too which isn't on their site. I emailed Brad from there and told him the lengths that i want and he made them to length.

We have this toaster...the button thing for two of the slots stopped working after about a month, so good luck!

May I ask what you need the midi cables for? I can't imagine there's a great deal of need for them playing guitar?? You could record midi signals into your PC, but why would you not just use live sound?!

Raymond Lin · 27 Dec 2014 at 20:41

The midi cables is so I can control them from the front, as the Strymons are at the back, I have a looper with midi at the front, it can bank up and down or access presets.

dirtychinchilla · 27 Dec 2014 at 20:42

I don't quite understand, sorry. Control what from the front? The pedals?

It's a looper midi controller pedal, I place that at the bottom right at the front of the board, in one of the modes it can control the Strymons with its buttons.
