SWAMP 1U 19" Rack Mount Sliding Shelf

This rack shelf is really solid. I was somewhat surprised - based on the price - that the box was so heavy when I picked it up from the shopfront. The contents did not disappoint! I'm just using the front mounts atm but will modify my rack to provide rear support as part of my next upgrade. I have a couple of small un-rack mountable amps sitting on the shelf, the slide let me get to the rear terminals without any pain :)

Soundking SKD310 Electronic Drum Kit

This drum kit is cheap and there is a reason for it, that said it has a couple of really nice features. 1. You will have to edit every single pad’s trigger settings. From the factory all the settings are incorrect and everything is not set up how it should be. Navigate to trigger settings and calibrate everything to YOUR drumming style. Make sure you include EVERY single pad, this includes CHOCKING! And TOM ZONES! 2. The High hat settings. You need to make sure you setup the pads on the stand exactly as pictured, you will then navigate to trigger settings HH Calibration follow the instructions. After the this step you need to change the high hat from type 1 to type 2. This is NOT SPECIFIED IN THE MANUAL. Otherwise it will not trigger correctly at ALL! 3. After a long long long setup process you will realise that the kits included in the module sound terrible, but that’s OK! You can now start tuning kits or in my case, kit. You have heaps of stuff to do in these settings and can get a half decent sound with a lot of work. The good stuff: 1. Trigger sensitivity is awesome. Once dialled in 2. The cymbals are the same as any other “b” grade manufacturer. Soundking brought carlsbro and those companies build stuff for other companies. 3. Luckily the user interface on the module is very easy to use and straightforward with most settings available. 4. the rack is not that bad. I added a complete Yamaha dtx450k rack to it as well and several cymbals and Tom’s and an extra snare. Conclusion: It’s a 650$ drum kit that won’t end in divorce or raging neighbours. Setup is looooong, but if you are persistent you can squeeze a decent drum kit out of it. I would highly recommend that you watch some YouTube on electric drums to make sure you have a full scope of knowledge diving into electronic drums, if you are an experienced drummer but money is a problem (when isn’t it) you can squeeze a kit out of this. It doesn’t integrate with EZDrummer2 very well at all but you can assign midi notes to pads, oh gee more setup. With that be prepared to work and massage this kit to your style, sure every eKit is the same but ultimately you are paying for refinement with more expensive kits. A little work you can get a decent kit. Overall I’m happy with it. I can’t wait to hang my custom snare and Tom’s of this rack lol. Software I would recommend: DAW: reaper EZDrummer3 Superior drummer Steven slate drums

Alctron CP540V2 Studio Compressor Limiter V2

I purchased the compressor from Swamp Industries - and was not disappointed. Plugins will never match the sound of a genuine analog compressor such as this. I have used it on individual tracks - vocal and guitar - to great effect. I have now ordered another so I can pair them up in the mastering bus.

Alctron MA-1 Inline Microphone Activator Preamplifier

I used this for a karaoke gig last night, hooked up between my Soundcraft ui16 and a Shure SH55 copy mic. The retro stage presence of the mic and the sound it produced via the MA-1 were both hits and proved very popular. The small footprint of the MA-1 was perfect for me, easy to chuck into my mic bag and to set up and break down. Great value for money.

DSL UKESTRAP16-2 Ukulele Strap - Maroon/Brown

I've tried polyester straps (also by DSL) and home made "bootlace" braids and wanted a genuine leather strap for mandolin, ukulele and soon mandola. This strap is fully adjustable across all instruments. I found the shoelace I got with my strap as inadequate, so I purchased a leather bootlace for the neck end. Delivery was fast.

SWAMP GWS-58 Digital 5.8GHz Rechargeable Wireless Guitar System

I've been using this wireless system for a number of months now, with both active and passive basses and I cannot fault it. (I've been touring, performing, etc for about 30 years, so quality, durability, and road-worthyness are paramount to me). The two big selling points for me were that it works with both active and passive basses (as I have a number of both), and also that it operates in the 5.8Hz range (which is not as crowded as 2.4Hz). I've used it at all my gigs (both large and small) since I got it and I've noticed NO latency, and ZERO dropouts. And no loss of tone. Indespensible!!

Stringjoy Orbiters Coated Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings - Light -10-48

I have used D’addario strings for ages. However, being a sucker for slick marketing, the Stringjoy strings caught my attention so I thought I would try them. Wow - what a difference! I put a set on my CS 1960 Telecaster and the change was amazing - the old strings were not bad but the Stringjoy just lifted the tone and feel to another level. The guitar felt tighter and more responsive. The tone was punchy and tight in the low end and clean and crisp, not brittle or ice picky, in the top end. I am a definite convert - I have now put Stringjoy strings on four of my guitars (three strats and a Tele).

Mosky Golden Horse Overdrive Guitar Effect Pedal

I've had one of these on my board for about 5 yrs. Brilliant little pedal to push into another overdrive. I've recommended it to a number of other players and no-one has been disappointed. It does the Klon/Tumnus job very well. There's plenty of headroom and drive on tap.

I purchased an ICM dual wireless microphone system for a community singalong event for which I was tasked with doing the live sound in April 2022. The package arrived promptly and performed perfectly straight out of the box. Noiseless and super clear for both spoken word and singing use on the night. Super easy to set up and worked faultlessly. Cannot fault this product at such a reasonable price. As Arnold Schwazenegger said, "I'll be back!" Cheers Craig Ramsay Exit, Stage Right

Extremely fast and Extremely Helpful

29 March 2022

The guys at swamp industries are amazing! Was accidentally sent a faulty item, which is extremely rare judging by the reviews of the item and the guys over email. I reached out to them with my issue and they were back to me first thing in the morning and had already set up a replacement to be sent to me and personally checking that it works fine. Absolute amazing service and great price!

10/10 for customer service

16 December 2021

In a time when customer service can be frustrating, infuriating or just nonexistent I was thrilled that a phone call was actually answered by a real human being! Not only that, but they were very helpful, very patient, very knowledgeable, polite and they went out of their way to help me. I changed my mind about the colour of the guitar so I called back. No problem, easily fixed (no sighing or impatience). On top of that my parcels arrived in Melbourne from Sydney 2 days later. They took the stress and hassle out of buying online. Thank you. So many businesses could take a leaf out of your book! Keep up the great service it really makes a difference!

Enhance nova U

24 October 2021

My Enya nova U had an issue with the electrics. I contacted Swamp who requested that I return the instrument and it was replaced with the new Enya pro tenor. I have nothing but praise for the company and it’s employees in the way they handled my query and happily recommend them. Thanks Swamp. I am now excitedly playing my new instrument.

Excellent Service

I can thoroughly recommend doing business with Swamp Industries. Recently ordered a Cymbal stand which arrived promptly but there was a fault with one of the tubes. Contacted Swamp about issue and was put at ease with positive information on how to return the item and they would send out a replacement saspo. Replacement Stand arrived just a few days later . Completely satisfied with their friendly and prompt service.

Amp stand

21 August 2021

Great fantastic service. I purchased an amp stand from SWAMP and found it was faulty. I called them straight away and the matter was solved in a matter of minutes. They sent a new one out that day and didn't even want the faulty one back. Very professional company, great customer service. Would recommend SWAMP 100% Cheers Brandon
