Members Purity_Control Posted August 14, 2008 Members Share Posted August 14, 2008 I went up to PMT this afternoon, actually they're about a mile down the road from me by the canal, in the building/business they took over after Sound Control went belly up. I'm still not sure what to make of them. Went in shopping for a reverb and having listened to a whole bunch of demos, was debating between the TC Electronic Nova NR-1, M300, or the lexicon MX200. Very helpful staff if you avoided the ones that looked like greasy guitarists, was chatting with a woman who worked there who was very friendly and told me it's really embarrassing working for a place called PMT! Well the two TC Electronic items i was debating (i'd planned on getting them to pull out all 3 and giving them a head to head) were out of stock! And i ended up pushing the boat out a little more than intended and came out with a MX300. To give PMT credit though, they have kept on all the staff from Sound Control. I was asking the woman about a guy who used to work there a few years ago (i only remembered him cos he always looked out of it, and i thought he fancied me) but when i said he looked like he was out of it she laughed and said that was most of the staff 'cos they're all musicians(!) So that was my experience with PMT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Purity_Control Posted August 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 14, 2008 Yup, i wonder which bright spark thought up that one. Maybe Sound Control were bought out by some US company that didn't bother to google their new name first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the first link that comes up is Wikipedia's link to a photomultiplier tube. But, yeah, the historical definition of PMS is not far behind.

Members Purity_Control Posted August 15, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 15, 2008 maybe you're not quite getting this. pmt may stand for a lot of things, but in england, if i went into a bar or work or anywhere and said i had PMT, they wouldn't think i meant anything else.
