Slut fest

You guys ever have one of those moments where you go absolutely crazy and buy a whole bunch of sh*t that you can't afford? I just did that. I couldn't resist the gear slut inside me..... In the last 3 days had an attack and got:

new monitors
Neve Portico
some Mogami cable
u87 (not my first choice of an LDC, but damn I got a deal so good I couldn't say no)
SM7b

I'm extremely excited right now.. lol.... However, I think I'm going to cry when I read my credit card statement. 0% is a wonderful thing.

Had one of those last year...

New monitors
Soundelux U99
Api lunch & a few 512c's
Kept going with a used 512 & 550 here & there.
(gotta fill it up... Looks better that way)
Mogami to hook it all up. (what's another few hundred $?)
Once I got it all to light up, I had to track the instuments at their best, so...
New heads on 3 kits... 2 guit amps to the shop... 2 elec's to the shop to get set up...

on my wallet... But on my face!

Will do on that Portico. It seems everyone wants to know what it sounds like. I just said f--- it and bought the dang thing.

They were also telling me when I called that a lot pf people have been slapping it across the 2 buss and pressing the silk button and everyone is loving it. I can't wait to try it. I may wet my pants just thinking about it. I may just have to buy a folcrom now too....

Hey Joel I hear those U87s are the shizzle on rap vocals (loved your post on the other thread lol)

Yeah man I'd love to hear a review of the Portico as well. I'm not gonna get the pre, but I have been considering the Duo Tape Channel for awhile...

lol! Thanks man. I couldn't resist giving our homies a hard time. lol... looks like they got pretty pissed. I'm sorry though... any idiot can rap in my opinion. I didn't spend 8+ hours a day for years practicing guitar when I was younger because I wanted to make beats and talk over them. hahah

Just remember... they have actually have PITCH in rap now. lmfbo...

I've heard a few good things about that tape channel. Sounds cool! I'll have the
portico next week so Ill give a detailed review.


Peace man!
