Your latest G.A.S. purchases

CANON-550D-DRAGON-LIMITED-EDITION-JACKIE-CHAN-DSLR-1.jpg

so you finally got it :headbang: congrats
 
April next year? Damn!

Yeah. Custom transformers run wont be finished until some time around then. He gets them from a guy who winds each by hand himself. He does a lot of work for boutique companies. It's also got some top-secret core, and some other wacky stuff.

It's not that bad of a wait. I'll have my Fortin Cali Marshall on Christmas :headbang:
 
Did you get that for primarily for photos or video or both?

Both actually. That was the deciding factor in getting this camera, the fact that it does HD recording. I'm hoping to use it to kick start a series of tutorials about music production, but we'll see..... also, more gear porn photos for the site.

@Ola: Thanks man! It was quite a ride looking for the right camera, but I hope I made the right choice here.

And do you know why? :lol:
Because I fucking hate that the Preamps of my FP-10 (which I use solely as a 8xMic Preamp) are on the front :p
Plus I always wanted a phase, lowcut and phantompower switch per channel. And I can use it with the Fireface's A/D section (for now), because it has analog outputs and if I get more analogue preamps I can connect the Octamic via ADAT and have 6 ok-quality A/D channels on the FF. And I got it used for a very nice price. Not so useless after all, I guess.
I was tempted by the Mackie Onyx 800r and the Audient ASP 008 (with AD) as they're said to have better preamps.. But they have no fucking analog TRS outputs and I want those. Plus they're fucking expensive and I like the RME pres.
