Killah, you summarized it best IMHO. I think this is what happens when we see the situation from neutral point.
MixBuzz 500 was done for my own fun. I needed it urgently in 500 format.
More than 20 people asked me to re-lay it to 1RU format. I opened the topic;
added some features, it is here, and this was my initial plan.
BTW, I posted all schematics before the Mixbuzz500 was offered as kit,
and way before Ruckus thread appeared. This makes some sense.
As well, there were some PM's with Lukash. He's the person who deserves
GSSL people worship for making full-featured, best IMHO layout in...... Illustaror!!!!
Here, my hat is off.
You started harassing ruckus.
Nope. All I did with MixBuzz500 appeared at his thread.
Remember 1st April trimpot? Ok than. Copy, but with some thinking.
OK than. I am an arrogant bastard selling to people overpriced PCB's
and harassing good guys. Duh! sounds cool
To disappoint people who have this mind.
I don't need kinda Ali-G RESPECT. My satisfaction IS when somebody makes
good music and use unit built by me or done from my kits/pcb's.
This is about support threads and many working units worldwide.
At least, when I die at 80, from heart disease caused by orgasm,
this is the plan, somebody will remember 2254C and great vocal track he/she did with it,
or easy-to-Sontec assembled at 2 days, which worked great at panned acoustic guitars
or main bus.
BTW, I ordering the PCB's and metal works locally, not in China.
The last project allowed me to stop run with repairs or single mastering units
and make some audio was www.innowattech.co.il,
two my friends and me did high efficiency energy harvesting system for this startup.
I not make my living from audio only...but I'd like to, as I addicted to sound.
Have other things to write here, yes, I donate sometimes
money earned from PCB's or kits sales, but this is out of topic.
I don't know and never will play games like politicians. Sorry, I used to talk what i think.
And all this silly game behind new GSSL era just caused me very ugly feel.
Even there is menbers who have two forum name
This is exactly what I thought.
IF you want i started this war, cause i've pointed the ruckus shadow buss to Igor when the ruckus thread was open, at this time igor seen pictures of his 1u unit in this thread and some menbers asked ruckus to do same like Igor;
And now we are here.
Hm...more or less; this is what actually happened; you don't started the war, anyway;
For me it sounded like this: somebody saw Mixbuzz500 thread and want to take the sales for 1RU to his hands. With all absolutely same look new era GSSL's. Without even taking back to original
board compressor the audiopath's gain structure, which is weird in gssl,
if somebody put any attention here.
Now, let's do something with this situation.
I am ready to donate to this forum all profit I do from first 50 PCB's of MixBuzz1.
This will keep this place growing and for sure we will not have gray days when forum's server is down.
Let's keep peace, we have 2 layouts for bus compressor;
for some guys it sounds bad they don't have a GSSL monopoly,
but seems like most of people are fine with this.
