So I've been gifted a senn e609 mic ... and I've got a macbook pro with garage band ... what's a good basic usb interface ($100 squeal limit) so I can start piddling around recording myself sucking at guitar?

having worked inside sales(b2b and limited b2c) before I would say a three business day guarantee would be pretty standard. if you want it expedited, you can always opt for a reasonable cut-off time for same day shipping with some expedited method like next day air etc. companies can easily run themselves ragged trying to get things out the door and it buys the company time for the order to settle (money makes it where its going, they're not calling and cancelling, adding/subbing/backorder status, etc)

here's what I mean:
it looks like you have two conductor wire, unless you put heat shrink on your shielding braid and that heat shrink is why it looks like two conductor wire.

regarding your expression jack ... how well is it grounded?

just looking at the picture, it looks like you have two conductor shielded wire with the two conductors hooked up more than it does that you have the shielding grounded at the jacks

$20 bench fee, plus parts is what I used to charge and I figured parts + shipping in that parts cost. why? because you never knew what was going to walk through the door and it kept me from losing money on parts (those small order shipping costs DO kill a margin)

it is believed that due to the guy's inability to innovate that the colour box (and by extension the crayon) is based on an existing diy neve preamp. I'm not even worried about being right about that. if I am not then kudos for finally coming up with something on your own.

if they kept everything about Bond the same, just made it a female that was bedding the Bond girls and tearing around the world's vacation spots in well made British sports cars that would be fine ... not quite ready for the ridiculous male version of Pussy Galore or Honey Ryder

had a look at the schema over at kitrae vs the build doc. obviously you'll need to investigate the tone stack etc as suggested earlier ... that said, the mid control is essentially useless in that tone stack. if you want a big muff tone stack with mids control, you'd want a more traditional set of values in there like a violet ram's head etc.

the milkbox is a solid VCA comp ... the vibrothang is pretty sweet as well ... I'm on the fence with the fx96 ... can't believe nobody is cloning the buzz box. when it comes to the ice box, keep an eye on pawn shops as well as cl and ebay.

I will say that one of the DIY community's sources for the "creamy dreamer" mod is the outdated wampler books, which are incorrect and will do this to your big muff build ... not the first time I've seen this

I ended up gifting mine to the kids because it was soaking up more time than I had to spare. I'll probably cave and buy a used 64 bit computer with more power and run ubuntu/retropie so I can have respectable results from the n64 emulation

lock washers only really work when they have something metal and immobile to dig into ... so inside the case is where they belong.

I'd buy the split shaft pots before I'd compromise on the orientation of the numbers ... OCD
