I’ve also experimented with some video through ground glass on medium format and large format cameras. It can be really fun to play with.

At some point you’re going to want to clean your ground glass (on the inner part). If so, do not use anything but compressed air. The ground surface is extremely prone to scratches.

I’m working towards an extremely low standard stereo setup here. Even the tape holding the mics on place is too weak. This is how it goes when all focus has been on eurorack for too long, folks.

What mics are you using? Any pre-amp to that? (looking to do the same with an old acoustic guitar)

Och hej förresten, fellow östgöte

[bjarlstedt]

Oj! Hej!

I’m using my old homemade ones. Made from those musical greeting cards and broken guitar cables.
And no pre-amps, just straight into Ears and the other one into my sound card.

Edit: which are preamps…

Zoom’s built-in mics and two JRF contact mics through the mail slot of our shuttered entryway while a monster typhoon {new link} rages outside. Percussive. Can’t wait for my USI Pros to arrive; today would have been a good opportunity for a test drive.

Where did you get the wood blank panels?

This really should go in the ‘JOY’ thread, but after 6 or 7 weeks of scouring Reverb, eBay, used selections at various stores in the US, MW, and WiggleHunt, a Sport Modulator finally revealed itself to me in Berlin. This may be the last new Sport Mod that was available in the world. They’ve ceased production and while I figured I’d find a used one by now, no such luck. I am pleased to finally have one for my little case.

Happy for you - that was a long search! I picked one up this summer and am still exploring it.

Waiting on my Norns and Octatrack.

My Sport Modulator arrived a few hours ago too!

brought my system to the adirondacks a couple weeks ago, just got the film developed. it was such a privilege to unplug for a week and get to spend a bit of quality time with Just Type. a couple tracks recorded to the tascam on the right are floating around here. minolta x-700 (with a wicked light leak) and fuji pro 400h.
