picked up my mics
Just picked up my mics from our friend Chance. My impression is that everything looks even better than I had expected. Great job, Chance. Can't thank you enough. This was a great effort.
My order had
2 583 multi patterns (with shockmounts)
2 ACM 2 (lolipop ribbons)
2 ACM 4 dual ribbons (i got the shockmounts)
1 ACM 6802T tube condensor (with shockmount)
They all look awesome to me. I ordered black ACM 4s, but as noted above, the entire order came in silver, I believe. I have no problem with this; they look great. The shockmounts are sturdy and made of metal. This whole thing has been an amazing bargain. I still can't get over the awesome case that the 6802 came in, which holds the mic, shockmount, power supply, 7 pin cable, and a regular xlr cable (which I didn't know I was getting). Now if I can focus enough to get some of my homework done, I'll have some time to lay down a few tracks.
Just want to add my approval to those who suggested we give Chance his well-deserved tip.
My only regret is that I didn't order two more of
the 583s for myself (those are in my brother's part of the order). The construction looks really solid. I guess I shouldn't complain though, he doesn't get the tube mic!
