I've been checking my Paypal account every day, but figured it was time to stop obsessing on it...

Good man! Excellent! I think we all understand the obsessing thing...it's been starting to get to me, too;)

We're happy to hear (pick one that applies, more if you need 'em):
1. Your Move went well, or
2. You're out of Jail, or
3. You've completed that Tour, or
4. You're back from Vacation, or
5. You're out of the Hospital, or
6. You're back from the Dead! (in which case, you get special credit for even thinking about mics at all...):D

Up ? Time for some sleep ! LOL
I keep some crazy hours. Sometimes I have "all night sessions", and sometimes they are "all day sessions", and in between, I ship microphones. LOL
 
Get some rest! I sure hope you aren't shipping mics in your dreams now :D

PS: for those planning to mod their ribbon I just noticed that Edcor has a ribbon mic transformer now.

I cannot find any info about how it sounds anywhere though.

I have heard nothing but GOOD about these folks. Theres some yak about them on http://www.prodigy-pro.com/forum too. Everything is made in the USA and compared to Cinimag and Lundahl, they are a fraction of the cost. Maybe down the road a group buy can be arranged ? this is something I am arranging with them (no middle man thank you) and they will "drop-ship" the orders. The only thing I will do is take the orders and give to them. Thoughts ?
 
Count me in Chance. I ain't sure what all I need just yet since I have some other projects I am still deciding on whether to use transformers or not. I also have to look at their line up to see what else they have in their line up.

Would you just be ordering for a single part # or for any?

PS: Also found that Sound Skulptor has an Edcor part listed as an option for one of his expensive mic pre kits
http://www.soundskulptor.com/uk/mp12.html
He describes the transformer as such:

Edcor WSM600/600 : This low cost steel core transformer will give you a nice "iron" colour, fat, vintage type of sound.

I just got off the phone with this company. (can't sleep) As it turns out they sell xfrmrs to several mic manufacturers, and are excited to work with us. They don't sell to "end users" but will sell to my company. I don't have time (shipping/packing) to open some of these mics to take pics of the China trannys along with measurements, but,,,,,, if anyone wants to volunteer, E-mail me some jpgs and measurements and I will forward this info to him
 
I take that back. They DO sell to end users but not at a discount. (but they're still cheap)
 
Still no payment requests in my email or PayPal account. My email starts with G.

At least I was not holding up production by not paying yet.
 
I don't think he's sending out the PP requests until he actually packs and weighs your order because he doesn't know how much to request until then. I'm also guessing that he's doing the larger orders first because he needs the room. So those of us who order one or two mics may not get our request for a while.
 
I think APL is right...

Chance has mentioned bigger orders here in the early stages. Plus, my email starts with a "C" (which would argue for a relatively early ship date--but nothing yet)

Also I have a relatively small order ($300/4 mics and shocks).
 
Actually, as it turns out some of the first orders just happened to be large. I am just going down the list in the PP/Fed Ex address book.
I had schedualed some orders to go out last friday, but because of the few "late funding" they'll go out on Tuesday. So disregard the Fed Ex E-mail.

Chance, do you mind posting some kind of progress report if you have the time?

Maybe post the list you speak of, but with only the first 3 characters of the email address's (for people's anonymity)?

I bet a lot of the people waiting would really appreciate the gesture. :)

If not, it's OK.... you are doing so much for us. Please do what you're comfortable doing.
 
I just sent out a LOT of Pay Pal requests. I have Fed Ex scheduled for pick up on Tuesday
 
WOW 2 minutes after I sent the requests, I got two payments. Some of you must be glued to your E-box LOL.
 
i'll bet it's not by e-mail address as mine starts with g, and i've had mine for a bit now.

Mine starts with 'd' and I haven't gotten a payment request yet. It is probably either in order by last name, domain name, or submission date.
