Neotec esprit

ok i promised that the neotec would be here by now, but i have postponed delivery as the hoodo gurus are filming their video clip at our place and frankly there isnt any room for it in our foyer this week

what i can tell you is it is a 32 channel board ( 16 mic pre mono ) esprit and i think 14 stereo line channels so it is bigger ( more flexible ) then i first said - although its actually quite little in the scheme of things
i will get the pix up mid next week , and of course if your on to it - come and have a look see

i feel like having a TRM 5 minute auction for it but i dunno what do you guys think? auction or straight sale ..?

lets have a vote !
and if your feeling broke we can probably put it on credit cards if you need to tell your girl all about it :)

either way it will begone out of my foyer as soon as i can manage it so if your looking for a board your day is coming

i am thinking it will be under $7k but how much its goes for up to how much you want it
it will be gone long before christmas that is for sure :0

Auction or regular sale is my vote.
But a five minute auction where people have to keep logging on to the forum at all hours of the day and night seems not so great.
What about a 24 hour auction with a start time posted before hand?

Hey Rick
I reckon an auction is the best/fairest way - but the 5 min type is a bit too crazy.
24hrs is a good amount of time for bidders
Are putting photo's up?

yeah photos will come after i get it in and put the legs on it .

whats the difference between a 24hour auction and me just putting it on ebay ..?

a mans gotta have some fun :)

if somebody is really wants it i am sure we can make a acceptable auction time to all parties
but i not really that fussed you guys tell me how it goes

obtw the difference between a trm auction and ebay is the trm membership is a closed race
so if you hang around here you get to play , if you dont you dont .

you got to look after the team right :)

That's why we love it here Rick.

I love your 5 min auctions.

Can you give us an opinion on the sound of this console. Pre's. Eq's and summing?? What's the condition?

Cheers

an opinion ..?
check out any thing steve albini has ever said about them ! ( its all good )

the condition looks to be very good , but i only saw it for 5 minutes :) we will see

there is a whole lot of love for neoteks out there much more then i ever figured
i just think they are ugly :) so they are not for me

and i have only ever used one at sony studios the one time 15 years ago

I like the idea of doing the auction..
Is there an opening price ballpark?

$1 ..?


i dunno lets see how many guys really want it , i am in no mood to see it sell cheap
only to find it on ebay for 7 grand more a week later .
maybe be a set price dead auction , maybe running auction lets work that out once i know whats what .
