okay folks. Sorry it's been so long between updates - I've been distracted by this little fellow here: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3580/3386994644_a5fd5e4e88_m.jpg Awesome thread ballpein, thanks for posting all this. My Alice is one of the mics I prize the most, but I'm glad I didn't have to bui...

1) I think you've got the right idea. Don't record too close, proximity effect can be a dead giveawy. I'd run a second track with a far mic, as far away as possible - then you can mix between close and far mic to match camera angle. ADR is super tricky - a lot depends on mixing, and a lot depends on...

re-501, and a pair of Alice mics.

Late night playing with this baby. Self-oscillation is too much fun.

Are you folks just using alcohol to clean the heads and rollers and whatnot? The felt pads are quite worn, any thoughts on replacing them?

000ohhhh, baby. all effects should have moving parts

I thought one of the screws had gone MIA, but turns out it had just stuck itself to the tape on the capsule packaging. I was quite tickled to find it there. I've got one Alice fully assembled, number two ready for assembly. I've only very briefly listened to the finished mic, but I liked what I hear...

oh no he din't!

This is the friendliest, most helpful community I belong to. I trust the info I receive here more than stuff I get anywhere else. And it's actually pretty amazing that there's very little snottiness or cliquiness here. +1 One suggestion: could a google custom search be added somewhere? either to the...

So awesome. So deluded. I'd say it was a hoax if I hadn't met a few of these guys in real life. I love that there's no mention of woods, electronics... The instructables links are really funny too - he basically hijacks some guys' thread to post pics of his guitars. next time you all are in a store ...

I finally settled on the symetrix 501 for my bass rig. I fucking love that thing. Before that, I used: -various pedals - all were tone suckers, and un-flexible -RNC - yeah, some distortion on release, but otherwise worked pretty good. I wanted something that could get thumpier though -166XL - it did...

THanks for the info guys.

I'll let you know what happens after friday.

Thanks for that Harry.

Am I right that the sound on sound should basically just be a feedback? Should it do more than that?

just found the manual online.

Hey folks, I'm thinking about buying a Roland RE-501. Haven't seen it in person yet, but pictures look like it's in very good condition. Seller says he's the second owner. What should I be checking out when I go to see it in person? Does anyone have a manual, perchance, or could someone offer a quic...

Alright, I know you guys are on the edges of your seats about me losing muscle power overnight. Well I figured out what happened. On my old kit I had like a 20$ pedal with extremely loose spring tension and no adjustability, but with my new kit I got an Iron Cobra. So without even realizing it I wa...
