RE: gribbles Listening Chain bonus!! - Old Red Eyes is Back

Nice to see you strumming a guitar and your voice is very similar to Paul Heaton. Good one.

That looks like an Ikea shelf unit behind you. We have one like that too, but mostly the classic Billy bookshelves in my study. Acts as some sound baffling.

Oh, bless you for that comment about my voice. I'm flattered!

Yeah - we love a bit of Ikea in our house. We've a few of those shelves as they for 12" records very nicely 😉

I'll take a photo of my tables at some point, as I've done an 'Ikea hack' to make monitor/module risers using some of the floating shelves and odd packs of legs from the kitchen cabinets they do...

I think one of their units could be easily converted into a 19" rack. I don't have that, but I do have the amazing Jerker desk. It's crazy that they don't do it any more.

You're right - I'd forgotten about that.

The only 19" rack module I have at the moment is an old M1R. A Cash Convertors bargain. It's fun to fire it up every so often - there's a bunch of factory presets that are immediately recognisable from the records they were used on back in the day...

The IKEA shelf is one I see at various of my friends, all DJs, all using it to store their Vinyl collection they build when CD, MP3 and all was not around for DJs to use, and the Technics was the master of every club and festival stage.
