Thanks for the heads up. I did read some gnarly reviews after I posted this and have since changed my mind. I'm now just going to look for a high gain pre. But thank you much for the warning.

WTB/WTT - DPowerPlug

I just bought a Cascade Victor and absolutely love it! But I need some extra gain. Anyone have one of these lying around I can pick up on the cheap (I'm currently laid off)?

How to capture the sounds of rain ...

A co-worker sent this to me. I'm not a fan of the song (nor the treatment), but the intro is worthy of note:

Anyone have a Cascade VIN-JET?

If so, what are your thoughts. Did you get the Lundahl upgrade? I'm considering this for vocals, fiddle, and mando. I've heard the clips on Cascade's site, but it's all electric guitar. Anyone have some acoustic examples of this mic? I'm also inexplicably drawn to the 731R (sucker for aeshetics) and...

i love ribbons on banjo - mine sounds pretty good mic'd from the bottom - below
the bridge ..
+1!

Is it an open back or reso? That's where I mic'd ours. A nice little spot between the bridge and the tailpiece on the bottom half. Sounded like a banjo.

Darol Anger has some info on his page www.darolanger.com/micadvice.html . Also, reach to to Garey Shelton www.myspace.com/gareyshelton in Lake City Way. He's done an awful lot of fiddle recording and dubbed the term Beelzebox to describe this unholy contraption. There's also a fiddle player/studio o...

What I am criticising is the quality of attention which is brought to the listening experience when music becomes omnipresent. I'm speaking as someone who owned an iPod for several years, and for many months made daily use of it during my commute, until I realized I wasn't really listening at all, ...

So, I open the Sunday paper and pull out the ads and see "cork floating floor" $2.99 sq. ft. and I think to myself, "I wonder if anyone's used that stuff in a studio?" and get on the message board to ask. Serendipity. Could this snap together stuff be put down over carpet in a temporary kind of way?...

WTB/WTT - Blue Baby Bottle

I've got a FS/FT hoping to fish one out, but I thought I'd be direct.

PM me if you've got one you'd like to part with.

FS/FT - Korg D1600 MKII

On the trade front, I'm interested primarily in a Baby Bottle, Cascade Ribbon mics, Shiny Box Ribbon mics, or other warmer mics. I've got a Sputnik that I'm not digging right now, but I'm not ready to part with. However, I might be open to other trades or $ or whatever. This thing is packed away and...
