Re: More old stuff from Grampa's attic

I read many years ago that Tapco used "cheap" pots and a fruit-based concoction for lube/damping. No joke. I think it was a prune juice. Later Greg Mackie used silicone grease.

EDIT: Nope. Raisins.

AES PNW Section Meeting - An Evening with Greg Mackie

That AES section meeting report was priceless. Raisin Juice! I had no idea. But I do understand the "sandwich in the mixer" story. I had a model 6000 that worked fine but had a funny rattle when moved like something was loose. When I opened it up to take a look I found an only slightly chipped around the edges Ritz cracker.
