The silver stuff is FRK. I had to install it myself. From what I understand it helps keep your room more live sounding. I did this because at my space there is carpet on the floors and walls, I didn't want it to sound too dead.
Thanks.

So i just stapled the fabric...

Since they didn't want me to call I had to text them telling them I was lost and I ended up being late. The guy called me up finally.... and was screaming at me and used some cursed wor...

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I asked the guy if he could send me a website or myspace to his studio or equipment list and he never responded back to me, but he did email me back pushing all the interviews to Friday. This just sounds weird to me and I hope its not another Craigslist Flake. JMil...

I don't mind getting my hands dirty at all but it just sounds like he is trying to make people do work...

Is the Ensemble the same of better converters? Isn't it like $2000?
The Emsemble has the same converters and pre's as the Duet, the Ensemble just gives you more options (4 pre's and 4 more inouts for external mic pre's).
Perhaps just upgrade to BLA and get a Duet?
