Some people mention they have more than one order. Is that possible under a single registration?
A single order will be fine, as long as it can be split into more than one shipment.

I think you'll have to register twice and put through the orders separately
 
GB Payment Update

Hi Guys,

All seems well with the credit card portion of the payment system. As I said, virtual checks will be open soon... Those of you desiring to pay with virtual checks, don't despare, they will be open soon... Just clarifying a few things about international checks before I open them up... I'll send out a mass email as soon as I open this portion up for payment.

Concerning international credit card orders:
There was one payee today from the Bahamas that tried to pay, but the gateway kept asking for him to supply a "STATE"... Later this evening, the processor and I finally figured out the details of how to make this work....believe it or not, there was nothing in their spec docs, special, to make international transactions work. I have modified the code on our side now, that, during checkout, if you choose a country other than the US, it won't require a state...actually behind the scenes, I'm passing to the gateway a special character to satify it's need for a state... This took quite some time to get this info from the processor today, but I believe we finally conquered this obstacle...

Again, seems that everything on the credit card payment side is going well. I have noticed 1 oddity that I'll inform you of:
This has happend 2 times so far; when someone checks out via credit card, our database automatically gets updated to show that you've paid. In 2 instances, people have paid, and it shows paid on the gateway, but didn't get marked as paid in our GB database. If you pay/checkout, and the next time you log into the User Console and just below your product invoice, it is not marked as paid, please let me know and I'll confirm in the gateway that you in-fact have paid, and manually update the GB database to reflect this. It doesn't seem to be happening very often, but I have seen it happen and will take care of it on a case-by-case basis...

Thanks again,

Randy

no, not recovering.... any modular synth user needs these! ... and the Jensen xformers that can do good with these levels.
but, what are your thoughts on the pic on the prodigy forum of the "81" is that what we should expect? as I was in before, but i kinda think others and now me kinda expect that, make sense? photo similar to your expectations?
thanks!
 
I´d expect that and with the same transformers as with
the lizard copy if you know what I mean

I can not comment if it is or if it isn't the same by a confidential agreement with the manufacturer. I revealed a manufacturer in an early group buy and we got shut down because the big brand names complained and threatoned to stop doing business with said manufacturer unless they stopped doing business with me. Many here will remember this.
 
color

Chance,
Has there ever been any color chosen for the preamps?
Just curious.

Oh, and the invoice payment went flawlessly!
Thanks guys for making this possible.

Nah. The big news is that he has been contracted to adapt the microphones for use in spy satellites. :D

For the benefit of those who have not recieved the mass mail (due to your spam blocker) the payment process has begun
 
need help

I don't know if this the proper place to put this but I want to spend my money wisely and this is my first post in this forum. I appreciate any help.

I'm registered for the group buy but don't know what to get and would like opinions.

I know what I need:

2 ribbons for guitar cabs
1 bass cab mic
1 vocal (to be used in the same room with other stuff, not so concerned with isolation)
2 room mics (for a 12x13x10 wood floor plaster wall and ceiling room with half the walls covered with padding to prevent being a neighbor nuisance)

1 mic preamp for the vocal mic.

I know you are going to ask what kind of music it is so it's sometimes punkish, sometimes heavy, usually slower and ambient and sometimes melodic whatever it is, made with a guitar playing through 6 amps, a bass playing through 2 amps, and a drum machine and vocals.

Right now I record everything in some combination of direct and e609's and when the instruments sound good, the recordings sound good.

But even though it's a small room, it has something offer and I'd like to have a little bit of room sound in the recordings.

Any help is appreciated.

[About combined int'l shipping]Any orders that might want to combine (group orders?) would have to be undertaken by those of you in those countries. Those who want to do this should NOW start a new topic in all of the forums to get that rolling.
Click to expand...

Just to be clear: does this mean that all orders for which shipment is to be combined, must be ordered by one person? Randy had suggested in another thread ("Group Buy Shipping Idea", homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=262383) that this could be done through the User Console before shipping would take place.

Please advise,

JDB.

so you have pre amps for the other mics already?
Click to expand...

I'm using a Soundcraft FX16 mixer going into a pair of Delta 1010lt's. I can't afford all new preamps at this time, so I thought I'd start with one for vocals.
 
Chance,

I understand you cannot divulge too much about the preamps, but can you tell us if they are all Class A, or if the 81 is Class A/B? I would like to know if the preamps sound the same or if the 81 is different, like the models these were based on.

Thanks!
