Product Description:
With this brilliant and uncompromising work, the most famous musical work of the 20th century, Stravinsky changed the course of modern music forever. Says Grove's: "every canon ofharmony seems to have been violated ... yet with all its deliberate crudity and violence the ‘Rite' is a clearly planned and perfectly controlled and coordinated piece of music [which] has for long been accepted universally as a masterpiece and is in the repertory of every large symphony orchestra...."

RODE NT1000 Vocal Condenser Microphone Review

I went shopping for a Rode NT1.Rode mics use superb capsules mounted in machined housings you could drive a truck over, and the NT1 is a great mic for male vocals.The guy at the store suggested the NT1000.I recorded myself on both, and there wasn't much difference, but the 1000 just sounded a little smoother.But, the NT1 had a painted finish (may have changed since), made out of aluminum.When you screw the mount on it feels rough, like screwing in a light bulb with an aluminum base.The NT1000, though, feels rich and expensive, a nickel-steel finish (I guess) more like the expensive Neumanns.And when you screw the parts together they feel precise and elegant.It was a hundred bucks more than the NT1, but with the slightly nicer sound, and the much nicer look and handling feel, it seemed worth it.

The only problem I've had with it is weight.It's fairly heavy, and can't be extended very far on my boom stand without falling over.

Great dynamic range, low noise, very detailed.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Once More with Feeling P/V/G Review

My husband and I are both Buffy fans and years later when any of these songs pops up (usually on our ipod) we burst out singing. Very fun and music is written really well and I have a new respect for the actors every time I hear this. Good even you are not a Buffy fan.

Blue Man Group Keyboard Review

I own 3 of these keyboards and they are the greatest electronic musical instruments I have ever come across. There are preprogrammed tunes to play with. You just wave your hands over the tubes and different instruments chime in. You can also control the tempo and volume by waving your hands over the tubes...almost like an orchestra conductor. There's a hookup for your ipod or mp3 player that you can play the music through this instrument and the speakers are great. You can use the keyboard to play tunes that you know and change the instruments from piano to trumpet,drum, organ, guitar, tuba,etc.WooHoo! I love them and so do my grandkids.
