Re: What new booty have you acquired?

i'm waiting for it to arrive. heard great things about it, especially it's reversed delay and pitch shifting. and i think that i got it for a fair price, 45eur

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

that's a good price. the cheapest on ebay i saw whithin the last year went for nearly the same. i paid for mine around 60e. but anyway this is such a great tool, so much fun and so useful!

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

cool man, those boss 1/2 19" are all worth getting.

i'm hoping the a80 will arrive tomorrow.. i've been thinking about where to put the damn thing alex.. shaunna is okay with it, no problems there.. big_smile i'm thinking of raising my mixer a little so it'll fit under there, thats really the only place i have for it. it comes in a rolling 19 inch rack, so i can put some of my compressors and limiters in there too...

the plan is to use it both for my own recordings and some mastering work i'm doing for others, combined with some other nice vintage hardware.

i think the idea is to simply use your mixer meters as input meters on the recorder. i'll have to see how it works, but as i'm always sending out on roughly the same level, once i find the right spot it shouldn't be much of a problem. only issue can be that my master compressor/limiter isn't attached to the mixer via the inserts, but the master outs of the mixer simply go into it, so i'd have to use that metering.. we'll see.

i had no idea they went for that much money, roginator.. i'll have to see if it needs any love and attention, i'm a big believer in not changing anything if it sounds good and works well, and according to the seller guy there is plenty of high and low on the recordings it makes, which should indicate decent heads...
luckily studer has a public FTP with all the service documents of all their stuff, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem..

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Ai! Mono, looks 'spensive!

For me : Poly-800 and Tr-626

I've had both before and sold them because I thought they sucked, now I know better, I'm having loads of fun with the two hooked together.

The Poly only works with batteries it seems, it there some kind of switch to use the adapter or is it broken?
If it is it's probably just a solder joint somewhere I guess.

PARTY in A BOX!!!!!!!!

http://www.dancetech.com/aa_dt_new/hardware/IMAGES/roland_cr-8000_main.jpg

Man i was hardly getting sleep deciding over acidlab miami or mfb 522! then this came along for $150 in awesome condition so i  HAD to buy it. next step mods...


the hilarious part is the guy i bought it from was a one man band and built a footswitch with all 4 NC switches so he could do fills and such while playing his guitar. he has these letters one the buttons which correspond to songs he covers. he demoed me an old jim croce classic "you dont mess around with jim" i sang along with him and he invited me for turkey dinner. man i LOVE CL waaaay more than ebay

"yeah yeah thats right"

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Oh yeah meeting people on Craigslist is the best part of it. But when you live in the middle of nowhere Ebay is a necessary evil.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

@plikes btw thanks for the ebay adivce on the busted sh-101, made him refund the money through paypal even though he didnt offer returns in ebay. i only lost 15 bucks shipping! yeah ebay is totally a necessary evil, when i have the urge there it is. with CL its totally random

and also got these:

sid sammich kit showed up today! Did just the resistors tonight. going to try and finish it this weekend.

done!

http://www.midibox.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/sammichSID.jpg

it's only really a couple of hours work to build, and has some cool sounds going on. The sid-less version is a killer deal if you already had some sids spare like I did.

though the control surface is really cramped. I'm so hanging out for my chinese LEDs to show up so i can finish my 6582, which is 4x the sammich sid, plus a decent control surface...

Congrats with the cr-8000, it sounds fantastic, but a bitch to program.

the pitch shifter section does not work from the panel, but it operates with external keyboard control...
delay works fine.
don't know if i should return it to the seller or try to fix it on seller's expence...

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

ah that's shit - the intuitive use of the knobs is the pleasure of this unit (for me).
