Started simple since it's my first one, I'm going to do some high fidelity boost pedals. Haven't built one up yet to see if it works, but they look good. I uploaded the wrong Gerber file so they have the wrong name printed on them, but the design itself looks like what I wanted, the up to date layout I made. I'll PM you at some point, to see if I did well or not well, but I'm excited! Working on the IA-N3 with you was a huge inspiration and I plan to finish that one in a 19" rack enclosure with offboard output transformers at some point, I'll try to make it work.

Just ordered some Seventh Circle Audio stuff: cmo2 8 bay chassis and psu, Neve 72, 2 Jenson 99 with op amps and the new 2 channel di module. Really looking forward to building and trying this stuff out. SCA has a new SSL pre module and Harrison filters too! The J99’s are sublime on acoustic instruments and vocals (excluding death metal 😜) OK, so what's everyone's go-to mic/pre/comp combination for 'Death Metal' ?

I snagged an old RE16 on the cheap. The foam was disintegrating in the head basket so cleared that out, digging the sound on vocals without the foam and as of yet not getting any pops so might just keep it this way.

Picked up a Yamaha U1 from a local school for $1200. Wasn't really in the market for a piano but I've always liked this series and at that price they basically forced me to do it! Sounds great. Now I just need to figure out what to do with my other piano. Debating moving one of them into my main recording/mixing room but it's getting a bit crowded in there as is and I'd either need to lose a couch or half block my only window. For now, it's just a piano emporium around here until my wife loses her mind completely.

Second post here, long time lurker. Starting to come here more than gearspace now I've gone a little crazy this year... I'll blame COVID! 2 x BAE 1023's 2 x Upton 251's 2 x CAPI LC25's 2 x CAPI BT50's 1 x Purple Sweet Ten ...I really need to be done with buying and obsessing over gear now... I don't have any more gear excuses... gotta get back to the music... and probably should sell off some other stuff. I am sick in the head!

I added a second Schoeps CMC5 with an MK4... that took some doing to find them in nickel. Stereo pair tastic. Gotta rustle up some MK2's now.
