Cure, The (Robert Smith)/Expert Profile
Expertise
READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE ASKING !!! I will answer any kind of query about their music & instruments. I won't answer questions about private life. Just don't ask or the questions will be rejected. Be sure I won't waste my time explaining why. I'm not able and (above all) not willing to answer questions about their wives (please subscribe to the Sunday Sun for this kind of questions, you may find answers). Sounds crazy to write that but I've received some really stupid queries about this subject lately... Other point of interest before you send questions : I'm not a psychanalyst. All questions revolving around you loving Robert as a dad (or lover) are no questions but matter of fact. I'll be delighted not to answer these queries... Last but not least : I won't answer people who don't even care reading replies (yeah, strange, but some "people" do that, showing the interest they put in their own questions and how the respect the time given by volunteers...). No read or rate ? no further questions answered !

Hi Peter, Sorry if it took me so long (well, not more than a day !) to answer this question but I've been stuck on snowy roads all day... Well, anyway. If you mean this video (http://www.youtube
2010-01-21 Knobs:
Hard question on the CH-1 / CE-5. I like both, but the CE-5 is definitely softer, well with the settings I use at least (low rate, high depth). I don't quite get your question about the Deluxe Memory

Hi again Ez, Well, VST effects are also very efficient, if I consider the ones I have on Logic Audio (I can use them while I play, which is not the case with Cakewalk). Trouble is you have to plug
2010-01-14 Postpunk death/gothic rock guitar effects:
Hi again Ez ! I don't know Guitar Rig, as I use Logic Audio and Cakewalk. All I know is that you may have brilliant VST effects, even if I really prefer the real thing. That's why I told you about these
