It's so crazy to see Parker play anything other than his Ric's. He's been playing Ric's as long as I can remember, although this new Gibson is a beauty.

Fun fact: Parker has some of the first Dirge work ever. Modded his Sub-Blaster to have an LED, and true bypassed his Big Muff when I was in college right before I joined the forum ahah

Ill repost my thoughts from BigSky ILF thread. The Magneto mode its really nice IMO, very much like a Binson delay (multihead echo) but you can sort of mod it from pure verb to delay. The plate is very nice expanding on the mode from the Bluesky.
there is also a built in cab sim, something I think its pretty rad. Beyond that Cloud and Bloom are nice sounding to me as well.

From the clips I've heard so far I think I prefer, by a marginal amount, the Eventide Space. I'm going to wait to see user demos before I make up my mind which one I want.

I spent about two hours last night playing around with my space to see if I wanted to keep it and about 15 minutes in I got fed up with dialing in each preset, and with the ease of dialing in a preset on the space plus the ability to truly control both with one midi controller I decided to sell the space and jump on the bigsky. My main concern was the shimmer, and it can do exactly what I do with my space, the only difference is instead of having one footswitch to switch values (like from -1oct to +1oct) I'll have to switch between two presets but its still just the flick of one footswitch. I listed my space on ebay last night for a reasonable price and it sold in less than 2 hours but I'm still 80$ shy of the bigsky preorder so i gotta wait till this weekend and hope its still going.

I just preordered the big sky, so now begins the selling of stuff laying around to pay for it. I will probably sell the supernatural and I have an m9 that I started to mod with the replacement switches but I never finished. I should put that together and sell that off. I also just fixed my boss's computer that died and he said if I sell it then can have a good chunk of the money. So hopefully I can recover the money pretty quickly.

You'll dig it. Its been my only dirt pedal since they came out.

Put up a BST ad if anything is interested in stuff

I'll take that $50 VT proto blem.






Yeah I know, wishful thinking.

One can dream.

looking forward to those revelations! I'm thinking mine will go on my as yet theoretical bass board along with a Algal, odb3, homemade bluebeard clone and maybe the elements. Oath/destroyer will stay put as I have that looper box with volumes to control it.
Might be selling my Lester, kinda sad but it's not getting used at all.

Anyone have good mic recommendations? Friend of mine is setting up a home studio and is looking for some good vocal mic suggestions

[Iommic Pope]

I will get flack for this, no doubt, but sure sm58s (beta if you wanna) have always done the job for me. Cheap, good sounding, versatile, and you can take em out live and bash the crowd with em....I mean they take a beating....yeah.
Bang for buck without getting into the expensive world of condensers.

[Ancient Astronaught]

Sm58's are great staple mics, shure sm7b if you want a cost efficient "industry standard" vocal mic. I've also had great success with just about every heil mic I've tried as well.

[amorphous]

58's and 57's are true workhorse dynamic mics....

for condensers on the cheap, the options are pretty large even in the $50 used market.

[AxAxSxS]

Cheapo condensers can be quite good.

I'd also recommend exploring backing the mics off the cabs. especially when recording at loud volumes. I get much bigger sounding recordings that way. there is normally a sweet spot and it can vary depending on what is going on.

Amen, I've heard the Audio Technica AT2020 is one of those secret weapon $50 condensers

^this!

I had a pair of Sampson C02's (pencil condensers) that were like $80, landed that were great...i eventually replaced them with c1000's, but they served me well for years.

Craigslist is your friend for mics.

[Iommic Pope]

Yowsers, wasn't aware there were cheap condenser options now. I been away for too long....

Also forgot to return your bro-pro-tit hug, vid.
Warm and fuzzy.
The hug, not tits...hopefully.

Yeah I'm keen on sussing the superbass after I get all my dirt sorted, kinda thought it might work out front of everything as a general tone fattener.
Also, after Nicks points of note about the timeline, I was looking into it. Seems awesome but I'm after stereo ins as well as outs. Tc had the next best contender with the x4, but does anyone know if you can dial in different times on each channel?
Failing that it's vox delay lab, pretty sure summit said that was capable.
Anyone else know of a delay that ticks those boxes?
