Default Which tube expert can do custom works?

All I am saying is that experts normally want some sort of
"professional" fee,
ie, more than what you'd pay a cleaner.
And you have not indicated what you are prepared to pay.

Doing such design work takes considerable time.

If you really want something done, and done right,
and in a good time frame, make a deal nobody can refuse.

I'm extremely busy for the next 6 months can't help you
right now.

Does not Manley Labs have something you might purchase off the shelf?

Patrick Turner.


Ok, sure I expect that most people require a fee..but I generally dont
talk about money on public newsgroups. That is pretty tacky in my
opinion. On top of that..I dont know what a project like that would go
for because nothing like that exists! Ive seen a lot of talk about money,
but normally when I get audio work done(I get a lot of microphone
modifications, for example), I tell the two techs that I deal with mainly
what I am looking for, they do research, give me cost scenarios, and
that's that. Why would I come on here, like an idiot, say "hey, I am a
dumbass numbnuts who doesnt know anything about nothing", "ive got XXXX.
dollars here, and I want someone to build me a mixer." "Who can do it?",
...Nothing about that seems smart. Ive never done business that way, and
dont intend on ever doing it that way. I had hoped someone would contact
me(and they have) , do a little brain storming with those expert brains
of theirs, get back to me with a figure and some scenario of what they
could do, yadda yadda. And lets work it out.. as for the things you
said.. *ive* never known any expert do do business in that manner. I
dont want to approach this like an auction or a contract to build a
prison. I want someone to talk to me one on one and work with me. Ive had
4 guys offer very helpful information(helping me narrow down what I want,
and believe me I appreciate it very very much), but outside of those guys
(thanks be to them again), i hear a lot of talk about money, but no talk
about what someone could offer. do people really think that way?? "Give
me money and we can talk!"..if so that is bull****!..Hell, how do I know
you aren't some Schizo in Dorothea Dix or Joe Blow from
piscopo..hell...or that you know your 3rd point of contact from a hole in
the ground?
Obviously you cant help, Mr. Turner.. thats cool..but I did want to
answer your questions.


As for manley..Well, I dont need anything as large as what they offer,
and they dont do anything smaller...they are pretty much on the verge of
"mass production" , and I want something that is mine(and the builders)
alone.

Ill keep hoping, maybe theyll come along.
