The Rogue Planet droids just informed me that there is a Silver Bullet shipping my way via FedEx. Yeah!

Stoked for you!
Waiting, wallet-in-hand, for samples (and the ability to talk my wife into letting this purchase fly)!

schmalzy - samples will be cool, and are no doubt coming, but the real telling thing is using the SB not only on your mix bus, but in your production workflow from start to finish, and THAT is hard to do as an A/B comparison - as it basically means tracking your song twice, etc.. That's where the real magic starts to happen, but no doubt there will be clips coming soon. The hard part is probably your wife. LOL!!! Best of luck with that one! At this point, my wife has pretty much given up. She knows music pays the bills, and that I'm never going to quit buying stuff. So as long as I can keep the flow going.....I'm more or less OK. heh heh

So as long as I can keep the flow going.....I'm more or less OK. heh heh That's kind of what I figured. I just thought it would be cool to hear the A/B on a couple sources and extrapolate to the rest of the track from there. I wonder if the proprieters/designers (you wouldn't happen to know them, would you drbill?) could track something pretty quicklike - even just a simple 3-mic drums with bass and guitar sort of thing. I'm always most blown away by stacked up examples of usage. I'm sure those guys have plenty of time just sitting around doing nothing but waiting for the buckets of gold to show up after releasing Silver Bullet.  I'm sure it's a killer piece of kit...it just helps to have proof when trying to sway the lady's opinion. For now, I'll just observe from afar and look into making some rack space for it! |

I'm waiting for the Golden Bullet. Just kidding, I'm jealous of all you Silver Bullet people that pulled the trigger. The 2-bus is my favorite place for analog in my current workflow, this thing seems perfect for something like what I want to hear.

Hey guys! I'm sorry I've been away from the conversation for a bit. Tone Santa and Tone Elf have been rather busy the last couple weeks. Tone Elf (Michael C.) kicked major ass this last week. I couldn't have done it without him. I don't think he's on RGO, but he's on the purple site as "citrusonic". If you are receiving a Silver Bullet this week then it's thanks to him. I'm very proud to report that 25 units have been built and shipped as of today. The next 25 are in process. I am confident that we will deliver the next group in advance of the 1/18/16 deadline I have been advertising on my website. A bunch of folks should be receiving their units in the next day or two. One just landed to a customer this morning. I'm not sure if he's a member here. A few more show up on doorsteps in the next two days. So firsthand feedback should be trickling in shortly. It's very exciting!  schmalzy - Thanks for your interest in the Silver Bullet! Bill and I have been talking about doing exactly what you are suggesting...creating some basic tracks for a simple mix so we can get them online as soon as possible. If you can hold out just a little longer we should have something available that demonstrates what the box is capable of. Here's a few pics to for everyone's enjoyment...Tone Elf assembling your units; a pic of Sean V. (who lives close by) unboxing his Silver Bullet, and then it installed in his rack.
