I'm going to order a mini to replace my 2012 workshop computer.... I only need it for very basic audio functions, and from what I can tell it should be able to handle that. We'll see!!

good to know... it may be time to switch back to RME, who (as usual) had Big Sur drivers ready 2 months before it was released to the public.

I suppose I'll be waiting at least until UA supports Big Sur. Anyone have any idea of how quick they've been to update for new MacOS versions in the past?

We're definitely considering versions of various famous SDCs............. nothing specific to share at the moment. Next up will be the Type 19, and then we'll have at least one more mic ready in the first half of next year So Neumann owns the rights to that 67 body shape? I believe they have a trademark in Germany for the shape of the headbasket.

Not sure why the drop box links said the files were deleted when clicking on them, but guessing that it's something to do with my end ,..... but I could listen to the soundcloud links. Thanks very much for sharing, much appreciated. Yeah sorry I must have deleted the files from Dropbox a while back. Glad the SoundCloud link still works, even if the quality isn’t the best.

I shot out about 15 sdcs with my buddy at Soundpure.... Josephson c617 killed everything on fingerpicked stuff. Otherwise cmc6 , DPA 4011, or oktava. Everything else was meh.

If someone wants to order one of these and send it to me, I’ll build it for you for $50. I just want to hear it

There seems to be a major shortage of grayhill switches. I know CAPI and AML have been having difficulty getting stock.

I have a couple laying around. Maybe I’ll see how one sounds with a Heiserman capsule. Expensive upgrade, but might be a great value overall?

I probably missed this in another thread, but will be the price of the Type 19? Very good question. Can you answer Tbone81 's pertinent question, mdmitch2 tskguy Heiserman ? Tbone81 It's looking like $999 will be the price. We'll likely have some initial promos which we'll be sending out to newsletter subscribers; link below: Heiserman Newsletter

I'd love to have one of these, especially at the new lower price! Eric is great, and I'm sure it's fantastic. My new studio build will definitely have some Locomotive / Weight Tank gear.

Thanks for the mention! The Type-19 is meant to be a workhorse, great for most any source. We're shooting for a September release right now. The production mic will have cardioid, fig8, and omni with the same K47 style capsule that's in our H47tube and fet mics. “Same k47 style capsule” - will this capsule be a Asian made capsule ? (Not that there is anything wrong with that) No, the capsule will be made in-house in the USA. The entire mic is made in the USA: capsule, body, metalwork, assembly, etc.

IMHO before anyone pulls the trigger on a Multi-Pattern "Workhorse"... It'd be smart to contact Heiserman, regarding status of the Type 19. Honestly, I preferred the voicing, over the brighter/competing Austrian Audio's and Lewitt's. Thanks for the mention! The Type-19 is meant to be a workhorse, great for most any source.

I sold my PSI A21m's (raising money for studio build), and I'm in the same situation looking for temporary monitors. Some ears I trust highly recommended the Kali monitors, so I might try those......

Ward - agree, just think of all the audioscape goodies the extra 6k can provide Like . . . yeah!! I'm always angling for the next audioscape need, plus I need me some Heiserman Type-19 microphones, to replace U89s on rack toms and use on guitar amps, and voice over work, and so much more. You heard those things? Come on, tskguy wave and mdmitch2 , bring them things out! We appreciate the enthusiasm! And we're getting very close....................... for real.

LA500A is fairly transparent.... large output transformer contributes some weight though. The HPF options and slow attack mode make it pretty darn versatile, and a killer value especially with the current exchange rate. Pretty easy build and calibration — I’ve built about 40 of them.

Audeze LCD-X are my favorite that I’ve heard, but my DT880’s are close enough to get the job done... I’d love to hear how the monoprice planars compare.

CAPI BT50 and LC25/40 are fully switched with grayhills. The 553F is not.

What company do you purchase your Canare or Mogami bulk cable from? Markertek has good prices and color variety for canare.
