There was recently a trainwreck of a thread at Gearspace (previously Gearslutz) about sending music production equipment to Amir.
It got me wondering what the appetite here is for this kind of stuff. There are a handful of "Pro Audio" oriented pieces of gear that have been measured here (mostly small interfaces). Would there be an interest in more. For example...
Analog compressors and equalizers?
Guitar amplifiers?
Mastering consoles and monitor controllers?
Patch bays?
Larger interfaces and multichannel converters?
Microphones or mic preamps?
Plugins?
Hardware synthesizers and samplers?
Also, I have an RME Fireface UFX that I bought secondhand with a Black Lion Audio mod. It might be a challenge to schedule, but I'd be interested in sending it to Amir if he could also get ahold of an unmodded unit to compare it to. Would there be an interest in this or other mods, perhaps on more current gear? Black Lion and Revive audio do quite a bit of business doing this and there's little to no objective data about what they're up to.
ASR has become quite a resource in terms of playback devices but there's a huge market for production equipment. Is that an avenue there's an appetite to expand into?
Thanks (by the way) to the community and especially Amir for the great resource here.
