Here's my entry, in free verse:
You guys have been really good to me.
I need no more gifts because I have been receiving, and still owe a couple of people.
I am strapped, but I am not piteous, no.
The wheel goes on turning in its rusty SCRRACKS
as I turn my eyes toward the world that moves without me.
I need no compressor when my lifestyle is already compressed. 
No pity allowed.  | |

Who's interested for a… MICROPHONE ?!? 
Nothing close to "big names", but it's a Large Diaphragm Condenser…
An… APEX 435 !
Attachment 278007
It was my very first recording mic, and it's in mint condition !
(That said, its shockmount has already be given here, so you'll have to buy a new one (cheapo chinese are for 20 bucks…) or DIY one…) CAUTION ! As I do not want this piece to be thrown in aftermarket:
- this mic is to be used by you, until you decide to give it again thru this thread
- you must have a recording place (from bedroom to cathedral, doesn't matter…)
- if you never did before, you engage yourself to giveaway "a little something" as soon as possible, that's always been our very first rule here, ok ?
Ok, I know I sound a little "bitter" with these restrictions, but sometimes I feel bored by some "takers only", our community doesn't them, sorry… 
So… lets come back to positive feeling !!! You want it ?
You're a real gearslutz ?
Just title your next post "APEX 435" and include a nice picture of your personal studio !!!
All the names will be collected during this week and one will be "picked from the hat" next sunday ! 
And, of course, shipping is on me… LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  | | |

Whoo!
Hi everyone again after a loooong while! I haven't even been lurking for a long time, exept for the last week or so. Had a computer failure and needed to reinstall, lost the quick link in the process... And life has had other plans for me than hanging here.
Now I'm back, and hopefully with a vengeance. I have some carmic debt to settle, and this will mark the start of it. I'm making some announcements soon, I hope.
Thank you once again, RawBe! It will all be regifted through this thread. More about it soon.
I have been giving away something while absent too. I bought myself a 16 track 1" reel recorder and received a Fostex 1804 (or something like that) mixer as a side offering. Since I didn't have much use for it myself, I decided to donate it to a friend of mine who has the same model as a centerpiece of his home studio. His has been broken for a long time now, and being unemployed he hasn't been able to fix it. Now he has a working one and his old one as a spare unit. =)
Nice to be back here, and nice to see this thread is still going strong!

LOVE the DBX 163s. I have a pair.
Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) has said that they are his favourite piece in his studio.

My first outboard comp was a DBX 163x gifted me by Strewnshank, famous in song and story, but sadly absent here of late.
I'm a songwriter, a poet of sorts, so tell me in verse how your life would be better with a DBX 163x in your rack (or piled on top of your pre/interface) and it'll be yours. Shipping on me in the States, anywhere else, we'll talk. |  | |

Budget (and others) did you make your phone mic? If so, how easy was it?

Take a bow, Limpy Loo!
I just couldn't resist the semi-Shakespearian verse with Vogon undertones. You ain't no Townes Van Zant, boy, but you made me smile.
Shoot me your shipping info and we'll get that out ASAP!
Started planting the garden today. Out of shape, glad to be moving. | |
