    Vintage Synth Sounds: Genesis, ELP, YES, Moodies...HELP ME!!!

    I have heard from multiple sources that he was on hand when it was being designed to make sure that it was a faithful recreation of the mini sounds. And judging from hearing them both, It is pretty damn close, especially if you get the transitor upgrade to make your envelopes quicker. I could...

    Don't waste your money!!!!

    I recently bought an Alesis Ion after reading what faithful repoductions of true analogue synths it had. At the time I had only heard an analogue synth briefly, a Moog voyager bass while BEP was making ther last record. Anyway, I plugged it in and low and behold...the thing was thin and...

    Avalon, UA, Great River?

    Price conscious in terms of the $3000 and up units on the market and that is just for a pre. but i feel you.. Price conscious is in the eye of the credit card holder

    Avalon, UA, Great River?

    I origanlly posted this is a dif forum, but it seems to fit the topic well. This is on the advice from Dylan Dresdow...Engineer for BEP, TWEET, MISSY ELIOT, and a ton of others...has won grammy for engineering as well. Hope it helps. Too much to soak in... But it boiled down to this. Avalon...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    Advice from Dylan Dresdow... Too much to soak in... But it boiled down to this. Avalon 737 is standard for hiphopers but the pre on that model is decent at best. The opto compressor is too slow for some people. The only thing that shine is the EQ. NEAVE (sp?) is great, but becomes sloppy...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    i am with you on that. and not to be on my own nuts. but my vox sound better on a KSM32 then most cats on U87. If you know what your doing and have mic/breath control then we can get passed the don't screw up the vocals thing. Lets pretend for a second that I am not a novice at my job, which...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    Yeah you may be right, but it is just vox to p-tools. Not to 2" or gospel choir with an 80 piece string section...just up in the mic rapping. also... If you are unfamiliar with Dylan or Tony Maserati's work, you should pick up the last BEP album or Missy Elliot or Jay-Z or Alicia Keys so and...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    That is a good point. But you "hacks" also have opinions and have used the equipment. Dylan will tell me to get a $3000 mic and a $3000 pre and upgrade to a TDM system. I cant do that, so I was hoping i would get some advice from this place as well.

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    Close. I am a rapper and I do record my own stuff, and it used to be for demo puposed...then I wouldfly to LA and record there. Now I record final vox at my studio and it goes to either Tony Mazzerati or Dylan Dresdow to be mixed... and Big Bass Gardner at grundman mastering to be mastered...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    Albert... The art of recording, room, technique, all help and I agree that it is an art, one which I am always trying to learn more about. But The robbie still only has a gain control. All things being equal, it seems like a waste of money. Other pre's seem to offer tonal options, for...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    that shit was funny! I guess i was expecting to hear some dramatic warmth added to my vox, like ohhh shit, my voice has never sounded this good...atleast from what I have been reading that is how people talk about pre's Maybe I am let down by the fact the pre's in the digi002r give me that...

    Blue Robbie Preamp....my thoughts

    I LIED After using this for a week. I am returning it. I think i bought into the hype of the tube preamp, because with my TLM103, this preamp had little effect on my vox. not worth the money. I am wondering if all Tube Pre's will be this dissapointing. I am using it for rap and singing. not...
