I think t-rex (I saw them once when I was 12!) was talking about the flash drive recorders. There are quite a few out now - Zoom, Ediral, M-Audio, Sony, Nagra..... Some require external mics but others have a stereo pair built in. The recorders basically fit in the palm of your hand and so are very ...

For travel recording you might look into one of the nifty little flash drive recorders. Nagra even has one out now.

Record and then transfer file via USB 2... what could be simpler?

I keep velcro ties on all my cables but always use the plastic bags to keep them sorted by length and type.

Is that a 'plug-in' or a 'stand alone'?

Airshow Mastering is world class but may not be within a DIY budget. Coupe Studio (off Valmont E. of Foothills Pkwy) may be able to help out if you want to keep it local. They are a recording studio and do mastering but not a pure mastering facility. Nice people there. Bruce P. (from Longmont - welc...

Didn't anybody tell him?

I was with my family today at a cabin in the Rocky Mountains (9 or 10,000 ft) with no telephone, electricity, internet, running water, but we could drive to it still. I sat on the front porch swing next to my wife and read the latest issue of TapeOp Magazine pretty much cover to cover. I do not usua...

Oops! .... I guess I didn't.... so much for my speed reading!

Thanks.

I'll look around some more, but I can't find a 'secret handshake' password. I was going to look at my profile but can't get in. I seem to be able to post ok. I re-read the rules. I usually glance down my spam folder before deleting and don't think I missed anything there. I've received TapeOp 2007 b...

I think we have a good group of people, or Mensch, here. I'm happily looking forward to getting my mic. For those who might be saying to themselves "The mic used to be $198 - I'm not about to pay $239 for it", carry on, unless you want a good stereo mic for still slightly less than half retail cost ...

Give it a try - Victors in France and is definitely not on U.S. Central time!

It may work.

I would be nervous about tightening the ribbon because I don't know how to measure ribbon tightness or even know what the perfect tension would be.

Replacing transformers is not difficult.

They're up a bit now. 2 hours to go and at around $700 - a little less attractive.

It's about time to request everyone who is not already in to consider participating in the deal. The numbers are close to doable but we need a few more takers. Please help - you will have a nice mic if you do. Afraid of ribbon mics? No need to be, they're great... Afraid Victor is a con? Highly unli...

Presently under $500 for matched pair. 4 hours to go.
