Had a project that called for tenor sax, vocals
and a little egg shakin'.
Used 'em on everything through the Precision 8
with really great results.
The best words to describe them are natural and not hyped.
Made the sax sound just like the sax. Had to be fairly close
to remove the room coming off the backside of the figure 8.
Vocals didn't need compression. I was singing and watching
levels so that made this possible. They did seem slightly
compressed sounding though. Even when the wave got
squared off in Paris it didn't gack or even sound clipped.
I rerecorded those spots because they looked bad...
Odd but kinda cool. =20
Vocals in the mix need lots of high end. Not a problem either.
It was a disco thing with that sizzly sound that only a condensor
should get. What I found was that these things took Paris' eq=20
sweetly. The esses didn't go over the edge and tone was smooth
as silk. I did use La2a's across them at mixdown though. The eggs
recorded nicely and again sounded natural. One on each side of the mic. =
=20
These are the first ribbons I've used except for some Beyer M160s way =
back.
These are floating my boat right now. I think they will rock on brass =
and=20
crunch guitar. I'll find out about that when a 7 horn band comes in =
soon.
They needed a lot of gain. I was afraid to get any closer than about 4" =
from them.
Delicate little buggers you know. Of course I used a popper stopper for =
safety
which darkens the sound a bit too.=20
At $700 or so for the matched pair.I think this is quite a bargain =
compared to=20
the R121s etc. The Lundahls are supposed to give them more clarity =

------=_NextPart_000_00B9_01C5DB66.789EB020--Hello to everyone.
After my last conversation with Adrian -wormhole's author- I have concluded
that wormhole is not selling well ( where are we guys ?) so maybe major updates
will get longer to support as he has to concentrate his efforts to "selling"
appz.
I wonder how we Parisians expect plugin authors like Adrian to support plugins
like wormhole which are a godsend for Paris with tremendous present and future
possibilities... (he is thinking of making wormhole lighter so to have even
more instances).
I don't see us people here supporting wormhole and that makes me sad and
maybe all my efforts toward this direction will fail somehow.
If we don't buy it how can we ask him for this and that ?
Even two or three buys would not justify major -Paris oriented- updates with
wormhole...
Please sign here if you care for using wormhole even as two channel cross
bridge beetween two computers (NOTE IT CAN BE USED ON SAME COMPUTER WITH
DIFFERENT APPZ TOO).
If we sign enouph people here (enouph depends I would say 10 and over I will
kindly ask for a small discount for mass purchase.
Please try wormhol

n't mix down 56 channels
x8x2. There is always something out there that is better for more money,
but not in an analog mixer at this price point. Of course everybody's needs
for their studio will be different.
This certainly is not the end all mixer, but it will be a higher quality
mixer than all of us can afford, and some of us may be able to afford three
at that price. As a pro audio dealer, I honestly thought this would cost
ten thousand more than the projected price. At it's price point I think
it is more revolutionary that the Mackie 8 buss when it came out. Time will
tell!
Don't rule this one out yet, it could turn out to really be a contender!

So how does the ShinyBox sound compared with Beyer M160 & Royer (both of
which I have used)? Does a $310 mic (46L) really outperform a Royer?!?
I just scanned the shinybox.com, but didn't see much description of the practical
difference between the 46, 46C, & 46L except about the transformers. How
are the spendier ones better?
I don't suppose anyone has got one of the new SE Electronics Ribbon mics
to report on? I have one of their tube mics (SE 5000) which I like a lot.
thanks,
Dale
