Microphone Positioners seems to be a solid product but way too expensive. I personally do not like their hyped design scheme for (wannabe) hip-hop producers.

I use one of the stereo spacebars here and while expensive, it has turned into one of the best purchases I've ever made. The ability to measure and repeat settings is invaluable and the build quality is stunning.

Nice to see them expanding the line.

How many hip-hop producers (wannabe or otherwise) are using microphone positioners?

probably talking about the chrome knobs and stuff. i agree...it just looks like a low end piece trying to come across as high end aka: bad.

Sounds like you've never set hands on Grace gear... Call it what you want, but they build their stuff very well.

Now, I haven't seen this exact piece in the stores yet, but traditionally Grace uses machined aluminum parts. Not cheapo plastic like you find in a lot of other gear. I would also be very surprised if a "wannabe hip hop" person will use the Channel Strip. Grace is transparent gear. Not going to get much "vibe" out of it. What goes in is what comes out.
