Cool purchase there nordheim :)
I think its the original H4 I have and the little mini one, the H2 I think.

Well I just picked up one of these for myself :D

Fully analogue, Dual VCO, Moog Filter and it turns into a semi modular with a add on.
Oh and the sound is so thick, ritch and creamy. All the demo sounds I heard make it sound like sh*t, but really this thing is off the hook!

Oh and I picked up one of these Rode boom mic poles, for fun and my day job:

Just bought the MBV reissues, dispatches tomorrow, time to load that stuff onto my stereo and sit in hazy bliss for hours

Haven't purchased yet, but I really want this crazy lo-fi analog effect, doesn't get more BOC sounding than this:

Check out the 13 second mark to hear one of the most hazy dreamiest analog effects I've ever witnessed and just imagine the possibilities of using it with a mono synth.

oh man! good work! those are both super solid. as for zvex pedal, i can say that everything they make are aural treats! they arent things you will keep on your board most likely, but will save a session!

That is some serious Bauhaus inspired turntablism right there.

Yes the price is a little hefty, but as soon as I get it I am going to reverse engineer it, and make a few of them for my MPC, Mopho, Akai S3000XL, and my acidlab Miami. ZVex is a very reputable company whose effects are all very unique and so inspiring. Pedals like BOSS and Digitech are out there as well. But I think people buy ZVex to craft a core part of their sound. And that in my opinion makes it worth every penny.

i have noticed on my zvex, they have scratched out the ic idents. have you seen that before? harder to duplicate then i assume.

Very cool pedal effect indeed! :D Sounds like the guitar in BoC's chromakey dreamcoat track!

The Zoom field recorder is a very usefull piece of kit too, I have one & for sampling sounds from everywhere it's recordings are pristine! You can record in 24bits on it, very clever piece of kit! :D

been saving for months... and some bloke just posted an ad for those last Monday... the fact that I got it all for under 300 gives Me a hard-on, what wonderful lenses they are for the price!

The one is a Sigma 50mm f/2.8 Macro (1:1) and the smaller one is a wonderful AF 50mm f/1.7 fixed. Both are AF and work wonderfully. The macro is a bit noisy but for the price, the seller threw in two circular polarizers as well, not a bad deal :)
