Not a lot, a few hundred dollars for doing a bunch of computer editing for a hip hop project. He's a good guy, struggling to get a couple of local CT artists known. Yes, people in the hip hop world struggle, a lot some of the time. Anyway, the project was for a very good, edgy, female rapper and I think it came out quite nicely. Then, my acquaintance had some personal money problems and<b
k them to the best turntable guy I could find in CT. He's a slightly eccentric fellow but clearly knows what he's doing. There's fancy high end tube amps for audiophiles on the shelves, next to Parasound amps and all that kind of stuff. So I lug in my battered up flight cases and leave them with him. Last night, they were done so I drove up to get them and hear the diagnosis. I walk in and he says, 'Hey, it's the duct tape guy.' To which I reply that no, I did not put duct tape in the inside of my 12s. He goes on to describe the shape they tables were in. First, he said that when he pulled the platters off there a thick coating of gunk, probably a combination of spilled beer, cigarette tar, and who knows what. So much of it that he was initially worried it might have ruined the motors in the decks. Luckily, that hadn't happened. The bearings were 'bone dry' and the previously mentioned duct tape had been used in various places. One headshell was wired incorrectly and the leads were almost rotted out. All that was fixed and we fired them up and they sound great. But here's the funny part. I thought they were a pair, but my repair guy flipped one of them over to show me the serial number. It was made in 1979! That's only the second year Technics made the mkII, and it's freaking almost 30 years old. Then my repair guys said, 'These things are built like a safe. I'm sure this one has another 30 left in it.' Now I just have to learn to DJ as well as a guy who owns these should be able to.I love Paris as well - I'm not really sure what I'll switch to when my gear goes ka-put, but I'd love to be able to incorporate a couple of these plugins when the time comes. You would also have a much much bigger market to sell these goodies. -Carl "Mike Audet" <mike@...> wrote in message news:476c0805$1@linux... > > Hi Carl, > > It is on my to do list, but my focus in on PARIS.
