I've been searching all over but I can't seem to find any staged comparisons that would allow me to hear the difference between a tube and a no-tube sound. Has anyone who has a tube-pre done this? Also, would using a tube pre on my SM58 be noticeable/appealing/worth the $ (or on guitar too I guess), or is it just a waste of time unless I'm using a condenser?
Basically, I'm debating whether or not to buy a tube pre-amp first (something like the SP VTB-1, or the PreSonus Blue Tube, or maybe even an ART??), or if I should just go with standard pre's in the Mackie mixer I'm planning to buy eventually (the DFX-6).
If anyone has a Studio Projects C1 I'd especially love to hear the tube vs. no tube difference, as I think that's the mic I'll be buying.
