Not saying they're not cool, just curious why we let blatant free advertisement from someone who is here solely to advertise on the forums.

Well he is a paid advertiser on the site (see banner at bottom of the page). Maybe Tom allows him to post a freebie every now and then as part of the deal? I dont know. Not my circus, not my monkeys.

Oh. I use an adblocker, so maybe the plot twist is that I was the bad guy all along. :lol:

What would be nice is some ILF pricing. That shit incentives people. Especially since I'm in the market for a good mic.

Just remember,Jesus,that this is a speciality effect mic. This is not a workhorse mic you would build your studio around. I am sure you know that but wanted to point it out just in case because the last thing I want is for you to disappointed when you get it.

I was thinking for a few tracks vocals or if I want a different kind of compression on my bass. I totally get that though. It's a use it occasionally mic. :) Thanks

@UglyCasanova, I can appreciate where you are coming from and my apologies... Intimate communities like the one here at the ILF forums deserve to be able to have a place to talk about their craft and exchange ideas and information without the distraction of 'advertisements'. However, as a boutique manufacturer of character effect microphones I occasionally make limited edition models and like to make them available to an exclusive audience (like all you guys here at ILF) that can truly appreciate them before making them available to the 'mass market' or via other channels.

With other audio and gear forums, there usually is a place for new product alerts... If ILF had something similar I would have gladly posted it there. In fact I'll reach out to the moderators here at ILF and see if we can get a subforum like that going.
