and avoid any inclination you might have to slide a piece of cardboard inside the hinge, to tighten up the connection. almost had a meltdown doing that too.

you'll break the hinge off if you do that...

I used Straker's and then Brian Austin's on quite a few occasions and never noticed it to be finicky.  With the 64's>psp2>ad1000, it nevered needed anything more than the lowest gain and sensitivity settings.  I always used a 6v sla and never had an issue with power dropping out.  Its a pretty universal connector for power as I also used it power a vms5u, MMe, and the psp2.  Never had an issued with it not locking.  Paul @ Prodig sold it to me fore like $12.

Pulled my all-time favorite (incomplete) tape (mule 10/31/02-post panic) with the above mentioned rig.  Unfortunately, the damn ad1000 conked out towards the end of the set.  

I really like the unit.  Great size, sound, and convenience

my first act as president would be to ensure the safety of our tapirs who are endangered by melting battery acid caused by AETA's PSP2 -- the French or "Freedom" Preamp.  No longer shall the scourge of provence music studios affect american tapirs.

I think you just coined a new term, Damon.

"Freedom Pre"

[marc0789]

 

Psp-2 = Freedom Pre. Beautiful. That battery cage truly is Frenchie's Revenge, but I never had a problem running it with an sla. Mine started out with the cage being too tight to remove, then got too loose when it came back from aeta for the replacement of an xlr and a bench test. and minute differences in battery size would cause it to be looser or tighter. Really is a Pinto,,,,,or maybe a Alfa Romeo Spyder, because it is a sweet unit, but a pain in the ass to get parts for.

it's a great box, just give it the same TLC you'd give the rest of your gear and you'll be fine.  I run the rechargeables because everything else I run can use them- it just saves me from having to carry an SLA.  Since you already have one in the bag for the v3, you can pick and choose.

As soon as I get my new setup, I'll start listing my sources as ck6x>jk labs dvc>freedom pre>tr mod shitmapper>sony POS-12a>digifart plus HD recorder

Damon-
Do you know the history of that unit you have?  It may go something like Straker>Carrington>Barbour>you.
