I just put cotton in the base of my microphones. When one had the 'filling' and the other did not, I could tap the mic body with my fingernail and easily tell which had the damping. I got some sticky back foam tape stuff to put on the inside surface of the bracket bracket that goes around the ribbon...

Yeah, you can weasel the black ones in (it's snug) but the silver ones seem to stick at about half way.

Mine got Cinemag replacement right away. I also tore out all the screening and did all the damping ala Mr. Joly. I keep meaning to remove the connector so that I can adjust the angle without removing the mic from the swivel. It also pisses me off slightly when I forget that silver Neutrics are too l...

If we get this buy pushed through I will send my transformers to you. Didn't I send my other Chinese transformers to you? I think you told me you were going to construct an oversize statue of George W. Bush in a public park in Baghdad to commemorate their liberation. Transformer Art! How thoughtful ...

Gettin' a little closer here! If you've never done a group buy, it can be a little frightening but in the end you are glad you did it. Remember your first DIY audio project? Kind of scary if you're not an electrical engineer. What?....you've never built a mic pre? Jump onboard this group buy and you...

I'm not trying to be a total dick about this, but it smacks of scam. The whole deadline thing, money up front, not seeing product for months... Have you done this before? Who have you done it with? Why not dump an order on a credit card then sell everything yourself? I'm sorry if I missed those det...

You can get one of these mics even if you are a 'penis pump'!

This is hardly my coolest "trick," but this past week, I recorded several vocals with an EV 635A inside a rubber shoe with holes in it. It sounded pretty great. It turned out that the singer's girlfriend (who owned the shoe) was going to get rid of them anyway, so I wound up with the shoe for furth...

http://www.freepowerboards.com/stereoribbon/viewtopic.php?p=232&mforum=#232 Above is the link to the 'Who Has Paid' thread and, though there is a ways to go, the number has increased very significantly over the last day or so. Come on people! Be victims of peer pressure! Succumb to the 'Mob Effect'...

I was one of the first to pay, and if PayPal (Victor) doesn't accept my payment I would be happy to re submit it. Who around here was in on the earlier TapeOp Ribbon buy? There was a lot of trepidation but I was in on it for 2 and I love them but they are a PITA to set up as XY (Blumlein). I want on...

Come on people, get out your credit cards if you don't have cash on hand! Stimulate the economy. Buy one as a Mother's Day gift. Links to photos of the mic are posted in the long e-mail (Victor's) post by me a few up from this one. Take a look and act now if you want a decent mic at a very good price.

Victor, I started a new thread titled 'Group Buy Ending Soon!' or something like that because Joel didn't want to change the title of this thread.

You might look at that one as well... sorry about 2 threads on the same thing!

I believe that $198 for one and a slight discount for a quantity order. The following is from an e-mail sent to me by Victor which outlines pricing and all. E-mail Victor at address below for further info. It would be nice if Victor would post here once again to clarify. The following is an email se...

Since Victor opened it to public, I don't believe there is any need to register. The forum was by invite at first because of his concern about difficulties possibly being created by large Chinese Mic Distributors. He was planning for a 3 week period but PayPal allows for 4 weeks before accepting pay...

http://www.freepowerboards.com/stereoribbon/index.php I started the 'Who Knows Anything About This' thread quite a while back and have since gotten in on the deal. If you would like a great deal on a decent mic please consider going in on this. I'll take one and I can pay! I'd love to see it go thr...
