acdave Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Did I miss this list for 2012? Or has it not happened yet? I doubt that it's an annual thing, but I just stumbled across the 2011 version and it was a good read. With the holidays and the end of year tax write-off purchases in full swing, I figured somebody would start a list of some sort. I've just bought little stuff and backups this year and am on the fence about a 664. Want it, but not sure I can use it/justify it/pay it off in my market, doing the work I normally do. Anybody, anybody? Dave Wendlinger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Almalvez Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I remember the 2011, that was fun. hmm... I'd probably say my 2 lectro 200 sets, the rx emergency, and BDS system/np1 batteries are definitely a few of my best purchases. I would say my Nomad Lite but it has yet to arrive.

Tom Visser Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 This year I felt that I didn't really buy anything that was a game changer, just stuff that I had to buy in order to meet certain job specs and larger capacities. TRX742, Bluefins, Micplexer, O1V96i, D4, Quadra... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

api Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'm just starting to build my kit. Got SD 664, Cinela Piano and Sanken CS3E this year. I love each one of them and just can't decide which one is the best purchase. Looking forward to getting 2 channels of proper wireless mics next year, but I'm having a really difficult time trying to decide which brand to buy. Probably Lectrosonics, but I've been very impressed with Sony DWX series too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwill Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Oh, and nearly forgot to mention one of the best things of 2012 was the invaluable advice and insight I have gleaned from JW Sounds forums and its' members! Thank you and may 2013 be a healthy and prospeous year for all! JHW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G Murphy Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 With all the 5D/7D shoots I had this year, glad for the SD552, Denecke TS-C, and SB-3 purchases. May all of you have a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattinSTL Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Insert patronizing comment here: The $20 donation to JWsound Okay... aside from that, I hope those who bought gear from me on this site are very happy they did... and I'd like to report that I've had a great experience from all those who sold gear to me. 3 Lectro 100s sold and replaced with Lectro 210-211. And one of my favorite buys of 2012 is a new CS3e... which really is a magic mic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berniebeaudry Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Cinela Piano, and four COS 11ds. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomboom Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Bought a load of gear in 2012 but if I had an award to give, that'd be to the MixPre-D; what a wonderful well-thought and well-built little piece of equipment. In general, I've been using it for additionnal inputs. I'd probably use it every day if it had 4 inputs,TC and 2 track recording... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpaul215 Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 definitely my Nomad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric4audio Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Best 2012 purchase for me has to be the SD 664. It just arrived a few days ago, so I'm still getting up to speed with it. Seems perfect for me: very capable, but simpler and lighter than the SD 700 series. I have a SD 442 and a 302, but I never bought the 552, even though I wanted the additional capacity. I never liked the idea of having a recorder without a display: too many perimeters to set with only blinking LED's and voice prompts. The TV work I do hasn't usually called for iso track recording, but I hope to start pushing the concept. Even if I'm not using the full capabilities of the recorder, it's still a great mixer/back-up recorder for my work, with a great display. Excellent manual, too.
