Free(ish) electronics

Hi,

I'm having a clearout and have some bits of electronics that I no longer need or want. I don't want any money for them, but would be happy for people to put whatever they feel appropriate into the honesty pot for RLab.

A 4TB WD MyCLoud NAS; This has barely been used as it was obtained in error. I don't recall what the password is, so you would need to be able to work your way around that.

A Presonus Firebox audio interface; This is a firewire audio interface for connecting intruments and microphones to computers.

A Danelectro Wasabi Delay Pedal; an effects pedal for electric guitars.

Cheers,

Luke the NAS would be an answer to a prayer!

I could attempt to factory reset it etc!

Cheers,

Cool, it's yours! I'll put it in the dropbox when I'm next in (tonight or tomorrow).

This would really solve a problem for me if I can get it working (It would really speed up wiping and re-installing my PC which badly needs doing!), but once successful, no reason not to share if you’ve also got a need?

Cheers

might be something worth having in the space, as we don't currently have a network storage option.

Can I have Danelectro if still available?

Do you happen to know if that model of audio interface can deal with a Firewire to Thunderbolt or USB converter? It may be a huge help to me if it will work with my laptop, for linking to mixing desks when working at events and having to record desk output.

Hey,

Pav: I'm sorry but the Danelectro has already been taken!

James: Sorry, I'm not really sure. The only information I can find is this: https://www.presonus.com/press/press-releases/PreSonus-FireWire-Interfaces-Compatible-with-Apple-Thunderbolt-Adapter
If you like I'm happy to bring it to the space for you to try?

I couldn't find much info either, (particularly as my new laptop has usb-c thunderbolt support, and also hasn't arrived yet. At a quick glance I might be able to chain adaptors). I'll investigate this evening and get back to you, if that's okay? If anyone else is interested and has a better idea what they need, I'm happy for them to go ahead.

Hi Luke, I came by the space a few times after that but never found it in the dropbox – did you ever get the chance to pop it there at all?

Sadly I just had a big NAS failure and could triply do with the drive if still available!

Cheers,

Alex Gibson

Hi Alex,

I put it in the dropbox. I know there was also interest in using it as a backup of some things at RLab - perhaps it has been used for this? I'm not sure what happened to it!

Cheers,

Luke
