The closest thing I know of is a little API deal that’s still $500 a channel

I posted this in the clone/reissue thread and invented the Drawmer Gate, which has now been in every studio for the past 30 years.

I just have to find a cheap working one that’s not in Europe or Japan.

IIRC there's a 1:1 behringer clone of that drawmer that might be even easier/cheaper to find. Those things are also perfect for compressor sidechains.

Pile of connectors for coke bottle mics arrived. PSU project is in design stage still.

After kicking the idea around for ages, a generous gift card I received at work prompted me to pull the trigger on the Sequential Circuits Take 5. Everything written about it points to it being the only polyphonic synth I need. Can't wait to bleep bloop.

But does it bloop bleep?

That's a different patch, I'll check the manual but I'm told it does.

Plans are starting to come together. Le pultecs!

If my spouse didn't need a full five octaves I would've bought one instead of the Prophet Rev2 we got (no regrets). I STILL want a Take 5 just for the immediacy of 'this all sounds good'

Ludwig Thermogloss kit from the fine folks at Wood & Weather drum shop. 12/13/26/20 (!!), 6-ply. Stoked. You don't see 20" kicks in 6-ply come up that often. Will be keeping my eyes open for a matching 24" though.

Also, Jury/Century Guitars "Dronemaster". Very excited to get my hands on this and do some R&D with it.

Rolling the dice on an "untested" Calrec Soundfield Mk. IV system. I think the seller got it from a storage unit liquidation or a church closing or something, because none of their other items are of this ilk. Hopefully it just needs a good cleaning and refoaming, based on the photos. Price was too good to pass up.
