    Thoughts on upgrading interface and preamp?

    1/4" outs on the Blue Tube to 1/4" inputs on the Audiobox. At the time I bought it, that was the way I was told to hook it up. Of course the gain is turned all the way down on the Audiobox. I bought the Blue Tube for the "tube" but found that it only adds a little distortion and not much...

    Thoughts on upgrading interface and preamp?

    Hi there, I have an Presonus Audiobox USB interface and a Presonus Blue Tube preamp. I am considering upgrading. Maybe with a better interface I wouldn't want a separate pre? Maybe I should upgrade the pre but the interface is fine? I'm looking for something that will work well with vocals...

    How to get "up close" sound recording vocal?

    I have a Neumann TLM-102 mic >Presonus BlueTube Dual Path preamp >Presonus Audiobox interface >DAW. The main issue I am having is getting a vocal sound that sounds like it's up close instead of like it's across the room. I know I have some acoustic issues that I will work on this weekend...
