I just scored some mogami 4-pair off redco for $1.70/ft. Like 100ft worth. Now I can easily iso guitars and have complete drum iso including room mics. Of all the things to get excited about, right?

No, I was the buyer. But i do appreciate the replys to the thread. You guys helped me forge a resolution. if I hadn't asked here first, I may have just opened up a paypal dispute and both myself and the seller would be worse off.

I actually bought it off a member of this site via gearslutz classifieds.
I started the thread because I knew some of the guys here have dealt with similar circumstances and was curious as to how they would approach it.
The matter has been resolved.

My ck40 has issues. I bought it used and one capsule has half the output of the other. It needs work anyway, so I thought why not upgrade.
Supposedly this guy is proven in certain circles. I found him via gearslutz or tapeop.
He's anti-capsule switching and more about circuit/component mods.

There were no picures before, but his reply to the pics I sent "no!!!!" Would indicate it was not in the same condition when he shipped it

It was a private sale and i paid with paypal (goods/services) The seller seems to think i should be fine since the circuit works.

I did contact the seller immediately after opening and seeing the damage. I'm just asking here because I'm sure some of you have had a similar experience.

So, on tuesday i ended up using blumlein in front of kit with spot mics and a couple other stereo pair for room. The center image bugs me. It doesn't sound terrible, but lacks weight.
Now that we're done and I'm just hanging out by myself this morning I set up a mid-side pair in front with stereo rooms adding slight delay to the room mics. Crazy. Wish I'd tried this before. Now I can get serious weight in the center image. I will definitely use this technique in the future.

Was listening yesterday and they only happen on certain hits. Sounds like a flam to me.

I think you need to NOT count In Utero. He didn't mix it. While there is absolutely a sound he consistently gets....THAT is not it. If you like lots of other albums he actually tracked AND mixed, cool---but, yes, unfortunately, you need a room. He DID, however, do a BFD expansion that will have room mics of his room. For the twentieth anniversary of In Utero, Grohl and Noveselic had Albini remix it to his liking and then they released it.

i worry that my room is too small/dark for mid-side out front of the kit. Guess I just give it a shot when we begin setup and see/hear what it sound like.
Was also thinking glyn johns method might be the way to go.

I'm tracking a rock band next tuesday and when I asked about the ideal drum image/tones the guy said, big Albini sounding drums.
I'm not tracking in an exciting liveroom (basement with no exposed wood).
Any ideas as to how I can achieve this?
One idea I had was that in addition to my normal drum mic thing (stereo oh, one mic per drum beater side, hh, kick reso side, mono or stereo room) was to add a spaced pair stereo ldc pointing at the ground in front of the kick maybe 1ft off ground and 2 feet from kit. And maybe with a large/dense cut of birch paneling for the sound to reflect off of. I'm definitely gonna try it out since i have plenty of channels/mics and the wood panel in my garage.

Plugin allience has the ufG8 on sale for $29. It looks super similar to the sound radix drum leveler. Just wondering if anyone has used both.

I use an akai mpk249 It felt like the most robust of the cheap controllers. Keys have a semi-weighted feel and knobs/sliders aren't complete garbage.

I've been reading up on eh12ax7 per Jim Williams recommendation, but I've read about lots of early failure with these tubes.
Who is a reputable dealer that gaurantees the tubes will work as intended?
We have a JJ distributor here in pdx, but I'd rather try something different as I've been using JJ's for the past few years.
