So, how in the heck do I delete this thread? I'm really sorry guys, did not mean to stir up such a hissy fit. Mr. McCormick, I believe you have just insured that a certain number of people, who would otherwise be very interested in your products, will not go to your site and will not buy your produc...

Re: Up coming reviews of DIY stuff

As soon as I get 5 grand to spare, I'll be building the Drip Audio Fairchild 670.

CHAIN OF COMMAND

Hi, how are you? Respect and enjoy the CHAIN OF COMMAND. You have been hired to pilot the plane, not plan the itinerary. Don't make it personal. You will gain much more respect in the long run this way. Just be patient and, sooner than you think, people will start asking and respecting your opinion....

I moved out here a little over 2 years ago. I wasn't looking for the same work you are, more trying to delve deeper into the score composing scene, but I will say this: Every single bit of work I've gotten (and it's really started to pick up) has come as a result of meeting out here with a friend (...

Hi Robert, Thanks for your thoughts.

I moved to LA after a decade as a first engineer in a few other cities (and countries), so I never did the assistant thing here, but I can tell you that the competition for assistant positions here is pretty fierce and its worth noting that most guys/gals that have steady second engineer gigs in LA...

Well, there are a lot of great pieces that are less expensive. The thing about the AT-101 Fairchild replica is that Simon set out to make as close as an exact copy as possible. He set out, as an experiment, to create a brand new Fairchild 670. No more, no less. Unfortunately, building and hand wirin...

AES 2009

This was my first AES ever and had a blast. Met some great people and practically turned into a screaming teenager over a couple. ( Bob Katz )

Was hoping to see more touch surface types of interfaces though.
