Various bits and pieces - many went to fleabay

[audioio]

I'm clearing out a bit too. As I aspire to greater things, but have not yet reached the heights many of you have, these items are quite modest. I'll probably put them on ebay over the next few days, but if anyone is interested I'd happily withdraw them from there. I'll try to post photos soon too.

Some items are free because I just want to get rid of them. When I list on ebay, I'll probably start at 99c for those.

All items are in Melbourne.

SOME SOLD (SEE BELOW), Some left to be disposed of after I get back from South Africa in 3.5 weeks.

AKG C3000 1 SOLD, 1 LEFT

Two original C3000s, quite lightly used and working perfectly. These have cardioid and hypercardioid patterns and switchable high-pass filter and pad. They come with cases and clips (no shock-mounts).

Product information:
http://www.akg.com/mediendatenbank2/psfile/datei/84/C_300041595b2caf278.gif

These typically cost $650-700 each at the time I bought them.

===
Two PA Strong boundary layer microphones BOTH STILL AVAILALBLE
Old cheap boundary layer mic, limited frequency response but quite useable.

===
Nakamichi CM300 cardioid microphone
Works off a 1.5V AA battery; can't remember if it works off P48. Sounds quite good.
$50
SOLD PENDING PAYMENT AND DELIVERY - Greg, you have an unseen PM. Get in touch if you still want this!

===
Aphex 107 2-channel mic preamp with power supply STILL AVAILABLE
Solid-state with tube output section. Sounds OK for what it is. If I recall correctly, these cost about $1100 when they first came out in Australia!

===
Creamware A-16 16-ch A/D and D/A converter. SOLD
This is the earlier model (not the A-16 Ultra, later rebranded as Sonic Core). I bought this from Myles but have obtained the next model and an HD system since then, so this is surplus to my needs. It has two sets of ADAT ports to connect to your audio interface. Sample rates are 44.1 and 48, or sync to external clock. 18 bits. This line-only unit is way better than the be!@#$%^& ADA8000 (which in my experience is noisy as hell with next-to-useless mic pres that break up at -6dbfs), and you get double the number of channels!

===
be!@#$%^& Multicom 4-channel compressor SOLD
Solidly built piece of gear, way better than recent versions. Sounds OK despite being a be!@#$%^&. Not used that much.
$100

===
Firmtek Seritek 1S2 PCI 2-port SATA controller card. STILL AVAILABLE
Supports RAID with MacOSX. Power PC machines only (OSX 10.5 and earlier; does not work with Intel Macs).

Firmtek Seritek 1V4 PCI-X 4-port SATA controller card. SOLD
Supports RAID with MacOSX. Power PC machines only (OSX 10.5 and earlier; does not work with Intel Macs).

$30

===
Syba SD-SATA 2-4IR 4 ports Serial ATA PCI w/ Raid SOLD
Has the Silicon Image 3124 chip which supposedly makes it compatible with Intel Macs, but I have tried putting it inside a Magma expansion chassis and can’t get it to work with my Macbook Pro. There are drivers for earlier MacOSX systems and Windows and Linux as well, but I have not tested it in these configurations. As it is basically in new condition, I assume it is working
Product info: http://www.syba.com/index.php?controller=Product&action=Info&Id=864
$20

STILL AVAILABLE

Also have an unidentified graphics card (AGP I think) with a funny connector that came out of a PC from my wife's work. The idiots who handle the distribution of these machines didn't bother to check that the monitor they gave us didn't plug into it! FREE for anyone who wants it.

Someone on ebay said this: The card looks like a Dell X1300 Pro http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dell-ATi-Rade ... 663wt_1163 Your problem was that you should have been given the adaptor which came with it. The cheapest adaptor is from Hong Kong for $6

===
Opcode Studio 3 MIDI interface/SMPTE synchronizer STILL AVAILABLE
I can’t test this as I have no Mac serial cable and no Mac with a serial port. It was working about 10 years ago and powers up.
$10

===
Yamaha R100 reverb – NOT WORKING STILL AVAILABLE
12V DC Wall wart power supply is falling apart and not working.
When tested with another supply, the unit powers up then displays “E4” and does not pass audio. May be useful to someone for parts.
FREE!

===
Power Mac G4 Accessory kit – USB keyboard and mouse STILL AVAILABLE
Yes, this is the horrible round mouse (single-button) that came with G4 PPCs of that time.
Keyboard and mouse both work well though, even with new Macs. In original packaging.
FREE!

===
MacAlly Mac keyboard (USB) STILL AVAILABLE
Really good keyboard, with power switch. Works well.
$5

===
Apple Pro Mouse – single-button mouse; works well. STILL AVAILABLE
FREE

===
Apple Mouse – single-button mouse; works well. STILL AVAILABLE
FREE
Dlink DSL504T ADSL modem/router. NOT ADSL 2 or 2+. FREE! (Also have another single-port Dlink whose specs I have to check and a Belden I bought for my Dad that he claims is faulty -- I can't fault it though.)

Nokia phone charger, output 5V/890mA FREE!

I had always assumed people were writing "be!@#$%^&" deliberately in their posts, but I just took a look at the preview of this post. Is this the first case of a spell-checker getting it right!?

Fleabay auctions are over; some stuff sold, some didn't. I'm going to South Africa for 3.5 weeks, so I'll bump this when I get back.
