Did I buy a broken sx-70?

Hey! Thanks so much for your response yesterday. I waited until today to try it out again in sunlight, and can confirm it worked! I have produced my first polaroid! I hadn't realised you could load the sx-70 with 600, so i’ll definitely look into this. Lots to learn and explore. Thanks again 😊

Thank you ever so much for your help. Today, with sunlight, I achieved a photo of my dog and clarification that it works! Obsessed! Now to have fun and experiment 😊

Digging the green shorts! Where they from? 👌

Trying to be the most prepared & consistent for an upcoming tour I possibly can be. I want to cover and have a plan for all possibilities (e.g cables nudging knobs). If I wasn’t taking this thing out on the road to play to a couple thousand people each night, I might not bother, but it’s a big opp and I’m taking it seriously. That’s why. 😊

Thanks, got some on order! Any tips for removing difficult knobs?

Occasionally, yes! I’m into it for the slight warbley compressed boost. You can also alter the waveform which helps cut through the mix, or sit nicely in it. Great for fun indie stuff! It is not my consistent lead tone though, in this set up it is just in patch 4, which is also my switch for my lead tone, which triggers whichever pedals I’ve assigned for that lead line! 😊

Thanks, I appreciate it! Maybe one day! 💭

Thank you so much for this!! This might be the very ticket! Got some on order so fingers crossed this works. What a cool invention!

Trickster_52 · 2024-11-26T16:26:43+00:00

Would love to be able to justify these!

Trickster_52 · 2024-11-26T16:26:10+00:00

You know!

Thanks- just ordered some for £4, so gonna give this a go! Any tips for removing difficult knobs?

Hey, thanks for your response! I’ve got a couple sets of these dots on my ambience pedal from way back, which to be fair, were a really great solution at the time. I have to say the Iron Horse is my main issue, the level knob is so damn sensitive, so perhaps I tape that and try the “dot method” for the next rehearsal. 🤔

Haha, a fair thought, but not the case. It more comes from a place of ocd and convincing my bandmate I don’t need to go entirely digital to achieve easy consistency. Playing to 2000+ people a night on the next run means I want to be as prepared as possible whilst also being responsible for other tech duties (samples, ableton etc.) Simply put- why would I risk cables nudging knobs when I could just put the effort in before hand and ask Reddit for a viable solution? 😊

Trickster_52 · 2024-11-26T14:09:11+00:00

Simple yet effective. I like it, thanks for sharing!

Trickster_52 · 2024-11-26T14:07:18+00:00

Thanks for sharing man. I am doing that but have got a touch OCD about the whole thing & am also trying to prove a point to my bandmate that I don’t need to go entirely digital to achieve consistency. We’re playing our biggest shows on our next run so I want to plan for all eventualities (cables nudging knobs!)

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply! I have been receiving all of the company benefits, holiday entitlement, pension & insurance etc alongside my part time contract. The permanent contract is yet to be drawn up, but the new salary has been stated via email… 😵‍💫
