When I head home in a couple days I have an Orange Bax pedal awaiting. Fully parametric mids. Should be fun.
Cheers,
Geoff

It's one of the new Telefunken-built ones. Brand new. A friend invested in the project and received it today. He texted me this morning "Hey, this is on my doorstep. Want to come grab it and take it to your studio? I have no room for it" Twist my arm......... I need better friends, or at least wealthier 😁 All my friends are in low places |

Made a move on 2 Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin mics. Mic pattern is adjustable in post with these mics. I love the one I have! |

In an unfortunate eBay accident, I inadvertently picked up two more Oktava Mc012 SDCs. So . . . how did I pick up 4 mics in the past 10 days.

I also had an unfortunate ebay accident, where I suffered from an involuntary BIN button press, resulting in an auction bypass operation and immediate purchase of a Chandler TG2. Remarkably painless!

My wife didn’t even blink when I told her about the Reverend electric 12 string guitar I brought home today. I have no complaints with her.

Yeah those were fun, you could get away with using a 22 like a API 560 but man if you really really want to know what all the fuss about KT Graphics was you owe it to yourself to get a DN27! Just remember you don’t have to move all 27 faders😳 Hey ericn sometimes an unfinished thought just lingers and ruminates and itches until it's scratched. Your suggestion about pushing audio through the DN27 (while not moving all the faders) is that itch. I've been literally coming back to this post in my mind for quite a while. This may be a dumb question but I'm hoping you can help me understand better what you're indicating. Please correct me if I don't have it right, are you indicating that the greater per-band resolution of the DN27 through its 27 inductors on a single channel might provide a more resolved (or finely tuned) saturation through those inductors than does the broader and less resolved (fewer bands) DN22 that has only 11 bands per channel? Even when both are set flat? That's what I've come to imagine you were describing, but I'm hoping you can confirm or correct me on. As I mentioned, I'm really not keen on having too many moar bands per channel because I wind up with analysis paralysis. But at the same time if running audio through more than twice as many inductors without necessarily having to adjust gain on those bands can provide some more finely resolved saturation then I'm super keen to check that out. Thanks for any tips! |

Thanks for any tips! From memory and it’s been a while, I think the 27 was the only KT that was inductor based KT. I could be wrong but I think the 22 was the next generation. I know the 27 was the very first KT, I almost bought a pair a couple of years ago that were built for a Sound Company and carried the Sound Company’s name. Unfortunately my 2 great KT experts have passed on, but I was always told the 27 if you wanted tone 360 if you wanted clean. |

Been an expensive week but scored a pair of Neve 1059’s and a pair of EAB/Geiling VE12 tube pre/eq modules!

Not gear, really, but searching not seeing much discussion on it here with attending in person. Headed to France at the end of the month with Nick (Bat Lanyard) for the MWTM Tony Hoffer session at La Fabrique. Super pumped. Now, just have to figure out how to do proper stems for this with my hybrid setup, lol! We're both staying onsite.
I'll report back with some photos and reflections, but Tony Hoffer's work touches so many of the things I'm trying to do engineering and production wise. Can't wait to be in person and hear some of his work in detail, then sit and run through a Bat Lanyard tune or two and get feedback. Will be interesting to hear other attendees' work as well.
Uploading a couple of new ones that we're working on now to their session site and excited to see what comes of the week, much less the whole vacation and cultural immersion of it all. Hopefully, the Olympic prep won't be a bear but staying in near the hub of the city for a night before taking the train the next morning to Avignon where we'll be picked up to head to La Fabrique. Should be an amazing trip.

Thanks for the info, it's fascinating that KT used to produce sweet inductor EQs before they got engulfed into the belly of the Music Tribe/Behringer beast. My KT DN22 has inductors, but only 11 per channel. While I tend to get overwhelmed by too many options, this is countered by my moth-to-flame lust for moar inductors. So I can't help looking at those DN27s. I may have a couple of them to show here soon :-) |

Sennheiser HD 26 Pro. It’s like a clearer, sturdier, comfier HD 25. This is much better sounding than the HD 280, HD 300, and DT 770 but doesn’t isolate as well as the DT 770 M. I would say it’s about as good as some modded or later version Fostex cans but comfier.

It frequently gets used pre or post tape echo sends, and doing extremely aggressive alternating cuts & boosts can do really cool things to synth basses and leads. |

Just pulled the trigger on a Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster and a Les Paul Standard '60s in Bourbon Burst. Really, really looking forward to getting these.
