Anyone else have a strobe light? (You can see it on the left in my top picture, earlier herein.)
Can't stand the thing, actually, but I keep thinking sometime some drunk dude who's over here recording and being a doosh will turn out epileptic ...
Which doesn't apply to me, the last part.
No one has black lights?
No Peter Max aficionados?

Picked up these bad boys at an antique show a few years ago. Current plan is to wire a decent sized light bulb inside each of them so they glow (and shoot light out the eyes/mouth) and put one on top of each monitor.
Ambiance, bitch.

Wouldn't they be more use as head mics, like a omni in each ear?

The previous statement is from a guy who records his own, and other projects for fun. No money is made.

Naw...using those for dummy head mics, the HF response wouldn't go past 9 or 10 kHz!Drone wrote:Wouldn't they be more use as head mics, like a omni in each ear?

Hard to tell from the photos, but they're smaller (a regular light bulb might just barely fit inside) and made of ceramic.Drone wrote:Wouldn't they be more use as head mics, like a omni in each ear?

If they were full (human) size and rubber?... head mics for sure.

I don't have a studio, though I do have a house nowadays. 3-4 years ago I got back into woodworking, and needed more lights for my apartment. Also I was taking regular evening walks that included the back parking lot of the high school along the trail, right by the dumpster where the wood shop threw away their scraps. Some nice wood in that dumpster, rarely anything big but lots of oak, cherry, walnut, etc. So I started piecing things together from various scraps, which definitely got me into that "art from limitations" thing.
