I would check with David Barrow. He does location recording and live sound: David Barrow Productions 3633 North Hills Drive Austin, TX 78731 512.345.7106 office 512.799.8468 mobile david@davidbarrow.com You could also try: http://www.musicmakerrentals.com I've rented backlines through them for SXSW many times. They also do sub-rents for when you need items they don't stock. |

Here's something funny...Back in '97 in Albuquerque I tried to set up a little rental business. None of the studios had ANY good outboard gear, mics, etc. So I got some 1272s, api lunchbox, Urei LA3A, a pair of distressors, a couple of neat mics including an RCA ribbon, and guess what? Nothing. Nobody cared. People said, "Why do I need that stuff? My Mackie has mic-pres. My black ADATS sound fine. " Too bad you weren't around back then. I would have had ONE customer!

Speaking of rental places - what happened to Toy Specialists in NYC? They lost their website, http://www.toyspecialists.com |

Toy Specialists was good to me - they cut me great deals on rentals & were very accommodating.

To clearify....I meant you didn't miss much by missing the auction. I am sure The Toy Specialist will be missed. D |
