Shedding the un-registered lurker status, and taking the plunge.
Developing my plans for my first cabinet, and quickly understanding how this becomes an obsession for perfection. To everyone in the community you're willingness to post and share is invaluable, and I've learned a lot from you. Probably my biggest learning curve was, when you find something that you think you can use later save it somewhere you can find it. Which brings me to where I am now. I've narrowed myself down to an attainable goal. I have my computer/software running well enough to move onto serious hardware planning, but have an issue currently.
Obviously GGG and Ultimarc both have adjustable sticks, some even automatic with varying prices. I've also seen various after market products for the same purpose, mostly on this forum with great reviews. However I ran across a build on the ole interwebs that is super similar to the Omnistik Prodigy with a slider on the top of the cabinet. The guy routed a channel in the top of his cab, and used a pin and knob (similar to a joystick) to create his own 4/8 way slider. Unfortunately being early in the planning/learning days, I hadn't learned to store that dude away for later use (it will always pop up in the same Google list right?
).
I'm not 100% sure this is the route I want to go, but wanted to review his plans and posts on its usability before making a final decision on which route I wanted to take. Based on everything I'm planning to do/play I know I want a set of JLFs, or equivalent, and the ability to switch it quickly for old school/fighters.
Has anyone seen this build, and if you have do you have a copy, link, or connection where I can ask him some questions? Obviously any other advice in this area would be welcome.
Thanks
