Cheap to clear, never used, brand new, checked working 100%. great for all sorts of things, comes with jack adapters as well so you can use them as i do as AUX out of the desk to your stage monitor, wireless monitoring.... cool ! i have 2 pairs to go this is for just one pair, let me know if your after both pairs can post for £4.90 first class royal mail.

Here is an observation. I am still selling on there, using the free account, but here is what i have noticed... where an item im selling might have normally 50 80 100 views my good items are getting 15 20 views my lesser wanted items are getting 5, to 0 views. so my sales are right down. Now... you can click "promote you items",, here is what you get... ---------------------------------------- General 100% more visibility, on average. Basic access to ad placements across eBay Pay per sale - only pay a fee when an item sells Accelerate sales on any type of listing, especially useful on low quantity listings or,,,, Priority 200% more visibility, on average. Preferential ranking in ad placements across eBay Pay per click - only pay for clicks on your ads Multiply sales on multi-quantity listings, especially useful in highly competitive categories Exclusive access to the top of search ad placement -------------------------------------------- so im thinking its not hard to see whats going on there... all the time my items will be bumped to the bottom of a search list topped by people willing to pay for there ad to be "promoted" and also by all the traders that pay to have that priority as part of their package. that's all if you use the default search "Sort, best match" so if you use the sort by "ending soonest" this would put everything in line with no advancement to anyone paid or business account. that's just the way im thinking of it i may be wrong ? anyone ? i know your all thinking "what do you want for nothing", and fair enough, i get that. just an observation.

34mm condensor mic capsule replacement good ones ?
funkgod replied to funkgod's topic in General Discussion
Hi all, sorry iv been away for a few days in the sun 😎 ok dad, they have been my secret weapon for years now, very hard to find, they are ROYTEK, hand made? in Italy about 25 years ago, these as you can see by the badge on the front of the case were a part of the "Proel" group and im sure i seen a strat copy ROYTEK guitar once ! https://proelworld.com/it/it/it/it/it/ so i have only had one of them for about that long not 30ish as in the op, ( though does seem that long 🙂 .. ) they only pop up on ebay now and again, not seen one on there for years and this week one popped up so i grabbed that as well, though not with its case, may be an older one when they sold them without a case, its been a fantastic mic and my go to for all vocals, and on all the songs i have released, to put that in to context i have about 40 mics to choose from ( not joking ). It still works as does the other two, its just on one when you get too breathy it can cut out, on saying that,,,if used with out a pop filter it always did do that, so i always use filters on them, but one now and again even with a filter when a singer gets abit too excited it will pop off, so thought it might be time for a capsule change, for the price of them prob worth a go, i know you can get them cleaned, i have done this myself in the past with good results. Regarding changing the capsule iv got no probs as i do electronics anyway almost everyday, mainly fixing mixing desks and recorders for studios. so the chance to get an original capsule is prob long gone unless the one used is a stock bought in part as most are. so al have a go. @ 80 hz cheers i did try that, its not a preamp issue i have a fair few preamps including Amek 9098 and its the same on all, Regarding the up grade of the cct board, for this one in particular as you can see its a modders dream, as there is no SM stuff, just good, old school components with space, but yea, thats a whole new topic we could open up as reading some of the comments a few people would be interested in, would someone like to start a new post in the recording section regarding this or just carry on on this post ? but is something i would also be very interested in also. cheers all for your input, https://proelworld.com/it/it/it/it/it/ -

34mm condensor mic capsule replacement has anyone done one ? iv been using mine getting toward 30ish years now and i think the capsules need replacing mainly cutting out while singing with anything breathy, even though there is a pop filter so to my question which ones are good ones ? there are loads on ebay all about 20 to 30 quid, but are they any good ? has anyone done one ? if so which one ? and was there any difference in sound from the original ( when it was working ) cheers all
