KuruPrionz Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 sm 7b & K&M 18806 keyboard stand trolley If you don't have one already, treat yourself to a Cloudlifter. It will transform that SM7, you'll love it. The CL-1 will get you there. I got one and it changed all of my dynamic mics (and one ribbon mic) in ways that made me really happy.

David R Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 My final Black Friday/Cyber Monday tally: - Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX DJ controller (I have needed a DJ controller for years, kind of surprised how far I have been able to go with internal playing, looking forward to improving my game) - Brainworx SSL 4000 G - Brainworx bx_masterdesk - Samples From Mars â everything from this year (including the Wendel and TOM libraries) - Sony ZV-1 (my YouTube video quality needs some love) - Audio-Technica AT2020PK (I needed a mic stand, and this one happens to come with a mic too!)

KuruPrionz Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Pulled the trigger on Izotope Breaktweaker and Iris 2. Installing sound libraries as I type this. Total for both was a tweak over $20 with tax, they are probably about to do an update since the list prices are $249 and $149 = $400. About a 95% discount if my do it in the head math holds up. I've got a metapop remix that needs messing with, I may just try to do it with both of these and call it good. Quote It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

The Real MC Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Leslie 145 from 1966, Leslie 122 from 1963 and Leslie 147 RV from 1974. Jeez, not a bad weekend. I saw a pic of his 122 from 1963. Cleanest one I've ever seen. Looks brand new. Oh speaking of latest music purchases, I bought a really clean Leslie 760 last weekend from him. Later I found that the Jensen upper driver had been replaced with a 60w University Sound driver which is supposed to be bullet proof. I'll NEVER come close to that 60w limit on the upper horn, but it's nice not having to worry about blowing it. The clean Leslie is destined for the band practice room, I have another 760 I use for gigging. The gigging Leslie already has a rugged EVM bass speaker, so I'm swapping out the upper drivers & putting the high power University Sound driver in there. Then I'll have an indestructible Leslie for the stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnchop Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Seeing how I didn't win the Sweetwater Wish List giveaway I sprung for the Omnisphere 2 upgrade and Neoverb, after picking up Discovery Pro for cheap. Hardware-wise the Launchkey Mk3 61 has taken over controller duties for the moment. Really great driver for Ableton with only a few missed opportunities. Quote I make software noises.

GovernorSilver Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Picked up some instructionals from GospelMusicians Black Friday sale before the deadline last night. Started going through the Neo-Soul Fundamentals one. It's kinda neat that back in the 90s, somebody thought of sampling a minor 9th chord manually played on a keyboard - probably a Korg M1 or Triton - and that led to a lot of dance music built on minor 9th chords, which led back to keyboardists playing these same chords in real time. All part of the plan to up my keyboard skills to use the Matriarch more effectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp-the-nerd Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Ever since I got my RC-3 loopstation, my dad (who plays guitar and bass at a ridiculous level) has been really interested in them, so I got my family to pitch in and we bought him the new version of it, the RC-5. Unfortunately, we were trying to jam with it last week and--while we were admittedly somewhat intoxicated--we found it significantly less intuitive than the RC-3. My dad is in his upper 60s with poor vision and is somewhat technology averse, so I was really disheartened when I realized how complicated the RC-5 control scheme is and how dependent it is on the 1 inch screen. It's hard to explain, but there's such a thing as trying to pack too many unnecessary features into a pedal. The older RC-3 strikes a near perfect balance of features versus ease of use. I guess at the end of the day, we can swap pedals if necessary. Something to keep in mind if anyone is looking at Boss loopstation pedals.

Marzzz Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 H9 Max owners can use the algorithm-sharing function to share algorithms with up to 3 H9 Core units, if memory serves. So basically for the price of one H9 Max and 3 H9 Cores, you could potentially have 4 H9 Max's. I dunno if I'd buy 3 Cores but I'd like to add at least one Core to share with my H9 Max.I ordered a Core to add to my current H9 Core, and will do a 2:1 Max Out. Though most of the algorithms are single effects, there are now several multi-effect algorithms. Add in the free software package and it is a great deal.Today I realized it would be cheaper to buy an H9 Max, then to buy a Core and Max Out the algorithms separately thru Eventide. Just sayin'...

KuruPrionz Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Nice toys, Sir Max - enjoy!

Michael Wright Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Bought parts from Thomann to go to three tiers on my 18950 stand at home. I know it's not really designed for this as the adjustment is at the limit for height, and the third level is back past the stand itself. It works, and is very solid, but I will have to be careful not to put too much weight back there.
