  1. dont think you can fix it. you have to send it in. will most probably require change of a couple of ICs. as per my experience with many 664s i have serviced over the last few years...
  2. it is not so difficult to remove the main board from the Venue chassis. and put it back. as far as an illuminated switch is concerned, i would not recommend it.
  3. another great one gone... RIP...
  4. also consider DMS. i set up an MKH8040 matched pair with an MKH30 last year. initial test recordings resolved into surround using the Schoeps plugin sounded fantastic.
  5. Kind of off topic - but was wondering if i can buy a Nagra EMP somewhere... Any leads would be very kind...
  6. Well, I am not into food photography to make things look nice. It should taste nice. That's it. I am not transferring to a serving dish and laying it out etc. Sorry about that...
  7. I have been posting a number of recipes - both vegetarian and non-vegetarian on my Facebook page, in case folks want to take a peek... stay well stay safe, -vin
  8. seems clearly a checkup at SD service is in order...
  9. <This glue comes off with a sharp flat driver. > Dangerous... Instead - dab some IsoPropyl Alcohol on it. Wait 5 seconds, it will come off with no effort, using a pair of tweezers. Recommended method from SD service dept. Been doing repairs on SD stuff last three years... Use a glue gun on the new Board connector...
  10. I usually maintain my lavs very meticulously and therefore seldom have a heavy gunk build up. If this ever happens, i use a little bit of Goo-Gone first and wipe down and later after some time, use a tiny bit of olive oil, leave on for an hour or so and then wipe down...
  11. Not necessarily - it is up to the user - you can turn it off and it will retain the last noise signature it grabbed.
  12. One great recording of jazz done on Nagras is the "Jazz at the Pawnshop" - considered one of the finest audiophile analogue recordings.

    OH no.... What a wonderful man he was! RIP....
  14. the microdot cannot be repaired because some glue is used during the assembly of the connector. only a new one can be installed after cutting off the old connector...
  15. I am so sorry to hear this. RIP Don, my friend....
  16. From what i have heard - pre-polarised electret capsules wilt with time - especially HF response and sensitivity - it is the nature of the beast, and exacerbated by sweat dust etc. i tend to treat lavs like consumables, once i hear the 'difference', i retire the unit.
  17. As others have suggested, there really is not much of any advantage using star quad in a bag... my 2 cents on this...
  18. from my experience - it is most probably a LCD issue that can be solved by replacing it. to the mothership it must go...
  19. Hello! I am visiting your wonderful city for a few days. 28th Oct to 3rd Nov. Would LOVE to meet you all!! cheers, -vin
