Well, Mr. Joly, if you wander up to Montana in your travels this round I can promis you gorgeous mountain views and at least some beer. I could definitely use some win-win-win arrangements. Trying to get back into full time audio out here in the mountains is a challenge. Don't have a ton of Vintage...

"...And from what I've read and experienced, factory tuning is all over the place anyway - no guarantee a new one won't clank, like one of my RSM's did... The factories building these mics do not pre-condition the ribbons to prevent loss of tension, ribbon sag, "woofy" sound, low sensitivity and cl...

...Obviously, other places can much worse than this but I've just hit a personal point where the constant comparison to others achievements and priorities do me little-to-no good ... Yes. Its hard to remain focused, mindful and present in one's own life activities when faced with the constant barra...

...Hey, Mike, was rather sad your studio tour didn't include the northwest. You ever feel like pedaling your wares in montana feel free to come bug me. Hey Wagz, I never got on the road! We had so much snow I lost 4 days of shop time and didn't feel right leaving my wife here to deal with what turn...

I had the thought recently that it's possible that the necessary base of knowledge has been spread to the point where you don't need to ask questions so much as UTFSF. Agreed. The recording gear industry is really very very small - so answers to almost any gear-related question can be found by usin...

Interesting answers. Its funny, I started the thread and totally forgot to check it until now. So I guess there's another answer. But yes, the TOMB, during its heyday, was THE definition of a vibrant and healthy community with none of the guy-answer, pissing contest bickering that defines Gearslutz ...

Where did all the smart, funny & nice people go?

hey folks, long time no post. I was just wondering where everyone went? I check in here myself once in a while to see if the spirited, smart and self deprecating folks who populated the TOMB are still at it. Seems like the place is a shadow of its former self. 2-3 new posts / day to "Gear Talk"? Tha...

Yes indeedy Tape Op'ers! Until Tuesday morning you can get a pair of my new MJE-384K "Roadster" capsules for the introductory price of $249 (they're regularly $299). These capsule replace the stock RODE NT5 capsules - just screw them on, no need to send in your NT5 mics. People asked me for years to...

Thanks again for the welcome back. The Tape Op message board was my first forum home. Since I wasn't given the opportunity to respond to my accusers at Gearslutz or offer evidence in my defense I'll have more to say about online forums in general and Gearslutz in particular over the next few days - ...

You're always welcome here, Michael Hey, speak for yourself, we don't know what he did to piss off the slutz. Or at least I don't. I think it's pretty classy for him not to explain it, but I'm just saying. History has a way of repeating itself. Just joking. From everything I've seen, MJ is a class ...
