nIC -

Who are you inviting? The internet at large? Are you looking to be the Corey of the audio world?

haha - but seriously, is it any forum members or whats the deal?

I was enticed by the gear, but then i saw the mention of beer and was further intrigued, BBQ just sealed the deal :D

Hi nIC,

Just got the all clear from the missus. I'll be there for sure. I'll see if I can drag a BA1073 along as well. Also, in case you haven't tried one. I'll bring along a soundelux Elux251. It's a great mic. If I can dig up some other stuff I will. Look forward to it.

Cheers
See you then
Peter

If this was in Melbourne, I'd throw in an Aurora GTC2 for you to try out on the day http://www.auroraaudio.net/aa_html/aa_products_gtc2.html. It's still a bit of an unknown, it shouldn't be! Check out the history behind Geoff, the designer/builder. It ads a 'class/sheen' to 'most anything you throw through it - even if the dynamics aren't engaged. Very nice piece of analogue.

Am very interested as to how the NV500 stack up against the TG500 on Electric Guitars.
Also generally the NV500 as a neve sound alike.

Heath,
Thats my old super rack.. now no longer in existance, however, its the only decent pics of my guitar..
I sold alot of that gear to finance an overseas trip in 2005.. was worth it (at the time) :-(
Simon B has my old PCM 80 that was in the pics..
I'll be bringing that guitar so bring your ANTs..

nIC,

If you doing guitars, did you want me to bring along a Royer121. it's great on guitar cabs.

Let me know. I'm already packed with the innertube mic and Elux251. I wont bring the 1073 as It's way too hard to dismantle it from the rack and patchbay.
See you about 1pm.

Cheers
Peter
