Author Topic: Ivie IE-33 opinions John Westlund Expert Film Handler Posts: 204 From: Burney, CA, USA Registered: Jun 2001 posted 10-12-2003 08:53 PM                     Has anyone checked out the Ivie IE-33? It looks like it would be a handy tool for doing quick checks. What do all of you think about it?  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???" Posts: 4247 From: Bloomington, IN, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 10-12-2003 09:54 PM                     That's an expensive tool for "quick checks." I don't like that it's a modified Palm. I'm personally looking forward to getting an IE-30 which is built as an RTA from the ground-up. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.  |  IP: Logged Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 10-12-2003 11:21 PM                     Manny, as would I. However, I am just a poor slob that can't afford to plop down the cost of a good used IV-30, let alone a new one. I am not sure what a used one would cost, but I am sure it is over $1,000.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-12-2003 11:24 PM                     Goldline has a software package for palmpilots or the like as well as a line of good RTA's that don't break the bank  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 10-13-2003 02:26 AM                        I ordered it a few days ago. It looks very promising. Once I have gotten it and played with it for a while, I will write a review (if I ever find the time...)  |  IP: Logged Christopher Seo Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 530 From: Los Angeles, CA Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-13-2003 09:36 PM                     Paul, I have seen some IE-30A's go for around $1,000 on eBay (which is where I got mine). After a calibration and battery replacement from Ivie, it's working fine.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-13-2003 09:41 PM                     This is the latest pda version from goldline http://www.gold-line.com/ipaq.htm this is there new lowercost analyzer I am rather curious about http://www.gold-line.com/30mp.htm  |  IP: Logged Chris Trainor Expert Film Handler Posts: 161 From: Greenville, RI, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-13-2003 11:46 PM                        I've been using a Goldline DSP30 for several years and like it quite a bit. Wasn't all that expensive (got a killer deal from Goldline) and works well. Only thing i'm kicking myself on is not getting it with the computer interface option. I guess I can add it but it's a little pricey. --Chris  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-14-2003 09:24 AM                     We own several of the DSP30's with the computor interface and the NC curve, RT60 options and Time Alignement. The only complaint I have had is the dendancy of the AD overloading and requireing the unit to rebooted when doing A chains at line level. The symptom on the display is a rising ladder display The Option3 often doesn't reset the level and one must reboot The DSP filters are the tightest in the industry and the Windows version of the interface allows for 1/6 octave which is good for subs and time based averageing as well  |  IP: Logged
