It looks like I'm sleeping the whole time, haha. Nice screen caps.

It was more fun than a screen cap might convey. Think Hollywood Squares!

Fun times! Great stories! Good drinks! Zoom did not like my EV635a.

I've got a pair of EV635A here too, like them on drum rooms and voice like everyone else was saying. Now Todd has to buy one haha.
RE18 is my other favorite, I like them on many sources, cardioid, amps, drum overhead, and so on.
There's also an RE11 in my mid/side front of kit thing with the ribbon mic doing the sides.

No EV635A's on Reverb. Only the black-grilled version on Ebay, which Dan clearly indicated is a no-no because of issues with potential paint flakes in the capsule. Whew! Thought I was going to have to start the "Gear you've purchased because of peer-pressure" thread.

I got on late so maybe you missed my demonstration of the RE15's superiority for Zoom use, cause you know, Elvis. Don't buy the 635A hype, it's just a sawed off RE55 with the bottom permanently filtered off, arise RE55 prices, arise... Also makes a killer disco kick mic, so Donr might want to pick one up as he wouldn't shut up about how he loves all those disco classics...

Then I'll wear my 1/2 Gallon Texas hat, for next time. We'll sing Hank's "Cold Cold Heart" too! Chris

Just go to B&H and buy a new one. The used ones are almost always trashed.

It’s a damn shame the only classic EV mics Bosch still makes are the RE20 and EV635a. The neodymium capsule ones are trash, the RE50 is not the same as the EV635a despite what Gearslutz says, and the rebranded Chinese mics are trash.

Interesting, I thought they had the same capsule/circuit (635a/RE50). Hmm... Chris

Yes, tip of the hat to Mark and Todd for the organization. And to John K, of course.

I had a great time. Didn't get to sleep until 2:00.
Maybe we could do this quarterly?

Somewhere there's a balance between often enough to keep interest, and too often where attendance falls off. If we ramp up there's also the challenge of facilitators...we can't expect Mark to keep going solo, especially when he is the one guy that has to stay on and they go 5-6 hours. I think there's going to be some discussion on how these look going forward. Stay tuned.
