I just purchased a Fender '68 Custom Deluxe Reverb, which should be here by the end of the week. I've been using my Vox AC15, which is great, but I've been looking to compliment it with some Fender tones, so this should be fun. Fantastic. I have the Vox as well. But I had some of these Fender amps in the 60s and early 70s, and to me, there is nothing like them! (I used them for fender rhodes too!)

I got a usb cable for my Casio electronic piano. Whoopee. But only after I lugged it upstairs to where the computer is and discovered it doesn’t take the midi cables I ordered for it. D’oh! Cheers , Geoff Sometimes, the little things are most satisfying! Hmm... I sense a joke in there somewhere.

Made a move on a Millennia Media 316 Dante mic amp set up. 16 mic amps in a 1U chassis. Will use it as a stage box. Has remote control.

This thread has been pretty quiet lately, so I'll make a little noise. I picked up the Trinnov NOVA. I've used ARC and Sonarworks, and this is definately giving superior results, but of course at a more expensive price. Its also nice to have it correct all audio coming through the computer ("systemwide") that actually works. I send an ADAT digital out from a MOTU 16a into the Trinnov, and then the Trinnov into the active monitors. Works well.
Congrats. Such a cool piece. I have been looking at the NOVA and I have been on the fence for a couple months. I look forward to how it works out for you. I have system wide with the ARC Studio box. I think that acquisition kind of put a stop gap temporarily on the NOVA, but I am still very interested!

Regarding system-wide performance (or Sonarworks' buggy implementation): I forget where I heard about it (probably RGO), but the SoundSource app (RogueAmoeba) is a fantastic solution that can apply the SonarWorks plugin, and other plugins, to your system-wide audio. Worth every penny!

Picked up some Audix for the locker, D6-i5-OM2 combo on sale currently for $169 Oh. I didn't realize 'The Audix Club Kit' was an actual kit that comes in a flight case with room for 7 mics, some DIs, a black Audix crew T-shirt, backstage pass lanyard and a coffee cup in the shape of a D6, though it was just a killer price on a D6/i5 combo with an OM2 thrown in, but I'll take it!

Decided to give these a go. Never tried the originals but have always been interested.

Let us know how you like them please ! Here I got a second Suhr Discovery BBD analog delay pedal. These are very cool, entirely midi programmable delays that are sold at a sensible price when found second hand. Very happy to finally have a stereo pair. They handle line signals just fine, they are at home in a mixing rig. More auxes !

I ordered a used Stam SA-4000 MkII-5 SSL style buss compressor from Reverb. I tried to get one from Stam last year but the delays put me off. I got it for a little less that retail so I feel good about it. My 500 rack will be full now and I have to stop buying hardware until I sell something. I still have space for microphones though.

I love this thing! It was such a quirky purchase. I have a SA-1178+ Iron on the way, I don't 'need' this. But I am soooo glad I grabbed it! The tubes are not used for the compression (lol) and I knew that going in. It's kinda like a full plate voltage (non-starved) fully variable tube saturation dial for what Aphex would call Tubessence(R). It's incredibly flexible with the dual mono or linkable stereo channels, sidechain inserts for each channel, sidechain monitoring, the separate subsequent limiter that you can drive into with the output, the VU monitoring of GR, output or even Tube Drive, the contour sidechain profile, etc. Note I didn't mention Over Easy kneezy as a luverly feature? Ooof that thing is not pleasant to me from the tiny bit of work I've done with it so far. Maybe some pads would be good with it. But Over Easy is like Over Squeasy imo so far. Very smeary. Hopefully lots to learn there. The program dependent Auto attack and release though are pretty sweet and sometimes I like them better than I can dial in with the manual A/R. Will be fun!

ontravelling I'd also be keen on what you think of them. I have an original unit and just adore it. Bringing out that bile-yellow box into the room warms my heart! Glad to see that you have two channels, curious to see if you find any utility for mid side. That's been a productive exploration so far over here.

Airfield Audio Liminator 2 arrived today. A beautiful sounding, 3 ru, heavyweight beast of a compressor. Far more substantial physically than I expected based on pictures. Racked it, ran some tracks today and am really impressed. So far the Sowters are my favorites for today’s material. Slightly more weight than the clean Jensens but the Sowters also seem to sweeten the highs. Also, placed an order for a Schoeps V4U. I have had to contact my cc company as there is no shipping information after 8 days, seller is unresponsive. I bought the Schoeps via Sweetwater Gear Exchange, also have zero response from them. Edit: Sweetwater Gear Exchange finally responded, was able to reach the seller and, I am relieved to hear that my V4U is shipping.

Digging it as well, but the software needs some attention. No matter what I boot up on my system first, Nova or Mac Studio, the damn software never can "find" the Nova. I have to restart the app two or three times, then when it finally finds the Nova I have to unmute it, then tap the damn mouse button 60 times to get it to zero. I hope they fix that shit in a future release. Love what it does otherwise. And cool to hear Vance Powell talk about it recently on the Recording Rockstars podcast.

In the process of getting my Hammond C3 fired up I learned about all the things wrong with my Leslie, so I order a new crossover, driver, and bass speaker. Nothing in my Leslie was original, it didn't even the right ohms speakers, so hopefully it'll sound better back to stock spec

What model Leslie is it?

I haven't had any issues yet, but I'm on a PC running Win 10. I do wish they'd implement a mouse drag event for the volume on their application's monitor page. Weird that you have to click up/down arrows to increase/decrease volume output. I guess they are trying to sell you their external controller.
