GONE - I am going to give away a pair of mics...
« on: August 31, 2007, 11:25:21 AM »
hey guys - i have a brand new pair of the little Naiant MSH-1 miniature omni mics, with the nice mic clips, that i would like to give away for free to some deserving taper here.  how do you think i should go about selecting the right person to give them to?

essay contest... 100 words or less.  poem instead of essay?

mspaint contest... always fun.

local... that way you can always borrow them back if you need to.

[edit] you could just drop them into the "gear loaner" program indefinitely.

Kudos for the idea! You could always place them in the gear loaner section.

I definitely like the idea of some way to prove you're worth of these mics. It has to be somewhat fun too...

I suggest someone who is financially strapped. Either a young person still at school or an older person on a pension. Or someone from the 3rd world. Maybe an Iraki kid? That'll make a nice change.

I remember how tough it was as a grad student to get the gear I needed to tape.  A good friend gave me his old CSBs and I will always be grateful for that (he also gave me his CMC-8s too later on, what a great guy).  So give em to a starving student who wants to go tape some good local bands and the occasional national show.

yeah - i was thinking about trying to find a good deserving starving student type.  do any of youse guys know someone you would like to advocate for?  i am happy to consider anyone who wants to write a haiku or other submittal to win the mics.  i'm not going to string this out for long - i just want to give them away to someone who really needs them.  thanks for all the suggestions.
