Your Latest Purchase (music related)

Just picked up a Hercules DG320B keyboard stand tablet holder for my IPad. I love it. Totally adjustable, solid, places the IPad Just above and behind my top board, and clamps right onto the upright of my 2 tier Z stand. Best $49 Ive spent in quite a while.

My last couple of purchases were non-keyboard, a Mandolin and Ludwig drum set. Not wanting to pay the $3599 advertised price I had been looking for a deal on a Nord Stage 3 Compact over the last few months. Last Saturday I found a B-Stock Stage 3 for $2407. After thinking it over and deciding it was worth the risk I placed the order Sunday night. It arrived today in the factory box with manuals, DVD's, and USB cable. The only thing I can find wrong is the left cheek block has some discoloration which doesn't bother me at all. Also it didn't come with an AC cord but I have plenty of those.

All of my purchases these days are B-stock or similar. You saved close to a thousand dollars by doing that (BTW, that's sort of extreme). I usually figure 20% savings or so.

 

Some of the internet retailers will sell you new as B-stock. I think what they do is open up a carton, then reseal it. Literally. After dozens of purchases, there's zero risk AFAIK.

 

It's worth a few phone calls, especially on big ticket items.

Yamaha Reface CP, along with the Korg iWavestation, iM1, and Polysix apps...

 

I also nabbed a Waves SSL E-channel plugin and a dbx160 plugin on one of their one day sales (about $29 each if I recall).

Just ordered in a pair of iLoud micro monitor powered speakers, I thought they might do for small quiet jazz gigs. Played them for 10 minutes then boxed them up and sent them back. At any kind of volume they would break up and then the power supply would shut down for 5-10 sec. or so. We're not there yet.....

Not glamorous, but useful. A 25-foot 4-channel snake to run from my rig to our monitor board.

Similar to above, I finally pulled the trigger on a Rolls PM351 Personal Monitor Station to use with my in-ears. Simple, low-cost mixer that gives me one knob for my keys, one for my voice, and one for everything else. The thing is a godsend, and I wish I would have gotten one long ago. I just tell the sound guy, "Give me the front of house mix, but without my keys or my vocals." It sometimes requires a little tweaking from there, but not much, and then I've got everything I need. Big thumbs up.

Picked up a Seaboard Block. Fantastic little board. I plan on doing a lot of traveling this spring and it doesn't get much more portable than this. I may get a second and snap them together. Already have a Rise49, but this becomes much more usable for simple stuff.

AND... I bought a used iConnectAudio4+ on Craigslist from another city, but a guy who knows people I know. Great interface, bad experience as all the capacitors in the output stages are blown and have cost me tons of frustration time with iConnectivity support, and a trip to an electronics repair for another hundred bucks, bringing the price up to full retail, if it works. Buyer beware.

 

Here it is, if anyone is interested.

Since the Hammond Store is history, I found a local embroidery shop that would do a custom garment. I've had my B for almost 52 years, so I decided to pay it a bit of homage......

I'm thinking of picking up a 60 inch monitor

so I can see these fricking pictures. Seriously folks,

if you can't google search a small image, don't post.

I agree, but save your money. It'll just bleed off the

right side in a bigger font. :)

 

Heck, I had to use the scroll bar just to read your original post.
