Re: What's New from Mitchell?

Brilliant! Outstanding! I love this thread. Thank you very much Charlie. Now I have to go and look for some "new" Mitchell stuff to share.

I guess I will go with this new Mitchell Pull Down Mechanism in 1927.

Re: Front Camera "Tour" of Mitchell 356

Hello members. Before Bruce Morgan sold BNC 356, he had the following photos posted on eBay. I think they are historically significant because there are not that many unmodified BNC's left. Bruce put together some very nice collage views of his rig. A neat photo that he included is a rare peek into ...

A really nice guy that has taken time out of his busy schedule to let us know some background on the Mitchell Sound Recorder #1.
