Some of you are Apple Logic Pro or Logic Express users. And some of you Logic users know that there is a very large online Logic community called the Logic Users Group (LUG). Well, the LUG has finally entered the modern era with a fully featured web platform and forums for discussions, etc. If you’ve not been there yet, please check it out at http://www.logic-users-group.com.

Yes, I’m involved with it. So on the one hand I’m biased. But on the other…don’t you want to get your sequencer advice from the lead singer/songwriter/guitarist of Ember After?!?

Orange amps are great sounding amps. Really, really great sounding amps. If you’re not familiar with them, they have a very “wooly” but solid British sound, midrange heavy and very “gritty” (think post-Zeppelin Jimmy Page) but they can still be clean (think Robert Smith of the Cure) or metallic (thing Queens of the Stone Age).

And they are know for their trademark tolex which is…wait for it…orange.

It’s not always orange, actually—you’ve been able to get orange amps in black for a while. But now, for this year only, Orange is offering their amps in white tolex at no extra charge.

You know, I think that Orange amps look really classy in white. And of course it would be a perfect match for my new Koll Sun Glide mentioned in my previous Geartalk entry. I’ve wanted an Orange amp for a long time…hmmmm….
