This gear lust thing will be the death of me…

Jon — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 23:14:53 +0000

… because my wife will kill me for spending all my money on toys. I think many of you can relate. From the first time I saw it I knew I must have one. I posted about how great they looked and how much I wanted one. That urge to buy did not pass for [...]

Gear Lust – A mic stand that doesn’t suck!!

Jon — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:01:25 +0000

Every mic stand I’ve used in the past month, new and old, ranging in price from $30-$80 all have failed at the simple task of holding a mic in the position I need. They all sag with the weight of a condenser mic. In one 3-hour session I had to go into the live room [...]

Gear Lust – True Systems P-Solo

Jon — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:34:58 +0000

Ever since watching the shootout and favorable review of the True Systems P-Solo single channel mic preamp on Ronan’s Recording Show, I can’ stop thinking about the P-Solo. In the shootout it beat FMR Audio RNP and Black Lion Auteur preamps on any source. I shot straight to the top of my gear wish list, [...]

Gear Lust – Shadow Hills Industries

Jon — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 16:30:31 +0000

Finally I’ve found a company that puts some mad science into audio equipment design. I just love the way these racks are designed, must be the big VU meters, glowing green eyes and Bakelite knobs. I’m honestly drooling a bit looking at and reading about these contraptions. …Drool…. Video of the Mastering Compressor via Sonic [...]

Gear Lust – Novation Nocturn Keyboard

Jon — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:30:21 +0000

It’s been a while since my last gear lust post, probably a good thing because I ended up buying that one and am still slowly paying for it (well worth it though!). Ever since these were announced in September I’ve been drooling at the Novation Nocturn Keyboards. IMHO these keys are damn sexy and I [...]

Gear Lust – Apple MacBook Pro

Jon — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 06:33:37 +0000

This is not good. I never thought the day would come. The End Is Near! I’ve got major gear lust for a Mac. Like an uncontrollable urge to buy one RIGHT NOW…but it’s late and tired and I figure it’s probably better to write about it instead. These new June 2009 Mac Book Pro models [...]

Gear Lust – Smart AV Tango

Jon — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 09:01:42 +0000

OMFG look at this thing! That’s a 22″ widescreen touch LCD. Those are metal knobs, dedicated transport controls, mousepad, 8 channel strips, 100mm touch sensitive fader, touch sensitive rotary encoders. Drool factor of 9.5 http://www.smartav.net/tango/index.php Made for Logic, Cubase and Nuendo, but I hear it works pretty decent with Pro Tools too. Gear Lust – [...]

Gear Lust – Moog Little Phatty Stage Edition

Jon — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 05:22:02 +0000

OMG, I saw this in Long & McQuade the other day, and just putting my finger down on a key, the huge bass that came out of the Little Phatty made me instantly want to buy it, although I didn’t. It’s a bargain at only $1400. It’s a 100% analog synth, that is digitally controlled [...]

Gear Lust – Stratocaster VG… god’s guitar

Matt — Mon, 09 Apr 2007 14:21:10 +0000

The Fender Stratocaster VG God’s guitar. I figured I would share this recent piece of gear with the readers here at AudioGeekZine. This is one of the coolest things I have found in a long time. Does anyone remember that guitar from Line 6 that felt like a poorly set up Squire? Variax maybe? [...]

Gear Lust – Metasonix TM-7 Scrotum Smasher Ultra Distortion

Jon — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 13:41:32 +0000

Metasonix TM-7 Scrotum Smasher Ultra Distortion “The TM-7 is basically a mean, angry guitar preamp made of three vacuum tubes. Plus a feedback loop which makes the preamp unstable. There is nothing else like it. No, it does not sound like a Death By Audio pedal. No, it won’t make you sound like Steve Vai. [...]
