Is this for real, it's so hard to tell whats sarcastic or not... [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

[dcurran]

I'd wager dimes to donkeys it's sarcastic

[Severe]

No its not for real. These posts can be a little annoying/funny at times.

If your are going to do a post like this. You should be alittle more over the top, and let them off the hook at some point.

[Kickin.da.speaker]

I think this description was way over the top and very evidently a joke IF you are initiated to pro gear and their prices. 24 Great Rivers mic pres? That's already north of $20,000. 24 Apogee converters? Built-in TDM card? For $1,299? And also the end of the post is clearly a joke: the M-Box letter?!

So yes, I can totally see where someone who doens't know the prices of a Great River preamp or an Apogee Converter might get thrown off. I just think it was evident to Joel Simone that this would be perceived as a joke!

Humor on the net is a very difficult art to master.

sounds a bit like we (digi001 owners) will receive a letter saying:

Oops, we're sorry, send in your digi001, and we give you a mixplus system with interface!
