I love a Sennheiser 441 on sax.
Failing that, a LDC that's not overly bright is usually a good choice.

RIP Ashton "Family Man" Barrett
Bassist for the Wailers. Incredibly influential musician for my generation.

Re: Transducer use?
Might be one of those things you stick to a pane of glass or that old style paneling to turn it into a speaker.

Re: What preamps are y'all liking these days?
For condensor mics, whatever is in the little interface. :roll: Couple years ago I dug out my copy of that TapeOp Hamptone preamp DIY and finally built the damn thing (I still had almost all the parts I'd bought for it). It's fantastic but complete overkill for my uses, so I ended up building severa...

Re: Thoughts on the ZED-428
It's a live board, but A&H stuff is pretty decent. Those have separate circuit boards for each channel so repairs are a lot easier.

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
It's going to be a month or two before I actually *have* it, but last night I bought a new neck for my trusty old 1969-ish P-bass. Warmoth, since everybody told me that bass deserves a really good neck (the old one has never been quite straight and nobody's been able to fix it). Weirdly enough the o...

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....
We send and receive a lot of packages at work, and UPS is generally considered better than FedEx. USPS Priority Mail is pretty solid and quick, too.

Re: Cheap USB interface with ADAT?
Sounds like the original poster got this sorted. But here is an inexpensive USB to ADAT convertor option: USBStreamer B https://www.minidsp.com/products/usb-audio-interface/usbstreamer-box "Out of Stock" :cry: MiniDSP makes some pretty cool stuff, though. I built one of their little 2x4 "speaker DS...

Re: KNOWER "house sesh" recordings
Hah! Clown Core is what led me to KNOWER, actually. Very fun stuff.
And if *that* isn't TapeOp primitive recording, I don't know what is.

Re: Tell us about your 2023 wrap-up
I've spent all of 2024 in my new role of 24/7 caretaker for my elderly dad. He's at home, in hospice. I knew I'd have to be here, but was still surprised that January 1st was the day I'd move back in with my dad. Hospice, that's tough. :( We're helping our dad move into an "independent living" plac...

Re: MD-421 clip lock
All the 421's we have for rent have that zip tie*. Nobody ever complains or cuts it off.
*two, actually - one on each side of the button.

Re: KNOWER "house sesh" recordings
Home recording on steroids - recent KNOWER songs / videos. Here's the biggest one, "Crash the Car": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZlVT8gPGEs They've done a number of these, and the album releases are the same audio. I figure that this is somewhat assembled from pieces, as the choir appears in an...
