In my field of expertise why, I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to folks such as Lloyd Loar, Stuart Mossman, Les Paul, Leo Fender, as well as to contemporaries such as Jol Dantizig, Mike Dresdner, and more. I take great delight in seeing someone such as Ike more than ready to give credit. But Ike, your name has been referred to me (behind your back) as being an incredible resource as regards things Neotek. The folks that have mentioned you are highly esteemed folks audio folks...and Neotel expert users. I applaud your humble attitude,sir.

And the redoubtable Steve Albini has been very generous with answers to my Q's already as well." Uh, could we tone this down a bit? While I appreciate the positive feedback, I'm beginning to feel that my reputation exceeds me. I'm just a guy on the list who has worked on Neoteks for a while. There are many list members who came before me to whom I owe a great debt. To name just a few: List owner Jim at Analog Brothers, Monte McGuire, Brian A. Roth, Rick Chinn, Greg Norman, and likely some others who I'm forgetting and wish I wasn't (some days my own name is on that list, too :-( ). I too love the Neotek sound, simplicity of layout and the fact that they are repairable. I also feel that I owe the current version of my career to the Elite 358 that was Doug McClement's for 20 years and is now happily working for Brent Punshon in Australia. It was the re-build of that console in 2002 that got me back into tech work full time, after ten years of managing a sound company and supervising live sound for television. This is a great group of people and I'm proud to belong to it. Best regards, Ike -- Ike Zimbel Zimbel Audio Productions Ltd.
