Hi All,
I read that Eric Johnson used API 512 preamps in his early days. I consider the tone he got on "Ah Via Musicom", Cliffs of Dover for example as possibly the greatest overdriven guitar sound ever recorded.... so that piqued my interest in the API 512.
But technology has come a long way since then. Has anyone A/Bed the API 512 with newer interfaces by Komplete, Motus, Presonus etc and reached a conclusion as to whether the more expensive preamps are really worth it?
Thanks,
TR
