Well let's think about this. Amp sims are widely used in professional recording. Preamp sims, not so much. Or you could say almost never. Waves does have the SSL 4000 and API collection but now we are comparing a $1000+ plugin to an all inclusive free plugin. The demo that I heard was not run...

Well being that I'm married with three kids. (It's my avatar) . Two with my wife and one with my ex, I can say that I know what a woman is. Regarding Gearbox: it seems they have changed the name of the software to PODFarm. Smart move.

Emulation is one thing but the bottom line is the pres. Emulation may be able to mimick colouring but it cannot mimic dynamic range, clarity or noise floor. Those things are inherent in the pres. Once that is messed up, you can't fix it. The DMP3 is fairly respected for a stand alone budget...

You are dreaming if you think that the preamps in that UX 8 are any where near close to an API or Neve. Have you ever even heard a real Neve preamp? I have. In fact I've sat behind a console with 32 of them. You cannot compare a cheap IC based preamp to a discrete class A solid state preamp...

You can't be serious? Consider this. The UX series are interfaces as well as a dongle for Line6 Gearbox(lol gearbox*) software. The preamps just happen to be part of the unit. That being said, how much do you suppose those IC base pres are worth? I would say at the most $.075 for the chip and a...

It's possibly a grounding issue. Search DUC for firewire whine. Also, are you using an external preamp? I'm not sure about the Digi 002 but if the preamps are not bypassed when using the line inputs, they will whine when you use an external preamp. I've had this problem with my Mbox2 and the...

No offense intended here darrin but, this is about LoveOsyter isn't it. I"m just not sure how your needs apply to his. Is there a preamp you had in mind? That would be helpful otherwise, how does that apply? I think TomT hit an important point though. You're going to have to listen to them to...

Is there something better for the price? A Millenia Media TD-1 is about three times the price. A True P-Solo is about the same. A little less. Grace M101 about the same. I don't know. I suppose if you want transparency get a Grace. I think the UA pres are not the most transparent mic preamps out...

Here we go. https://rcpt.yousendit.com/703558036/bc3defef34f164d3b31bd9fdcf61f238

I can and will but not right now. Maybe tomorrow. It's uh.....midnight here right now. So sleepy. So Saturday I'll post them.

If I had to do it again, I would search for a GT Brick or an Electro Harmonix 12AY7. Cheapest true tube pres you will find.

Alright. Looking forward to that. I'm a fan of your show. Great info. I suppose I should have waited before I spent my money or I could have just bought that Solo 610. I just bought the ART TPS II. Granted this is not a true tube preamp. It's a starved plate design but it works. The variable...

I don't mean to be critical but, it seemed a bit of an unfair comparison. None of the mics have the same level so you will automatically perceive them differently. I took the liberty of downloading all of the examples and I normalized them to -3dB. I know that some people look down on...

There's a dvd included with every ProTools/Digidesign product. Didn't you watch this? It's a great way to get the basic ins and outs.

You should be able to just use rca to ts adapters. I'm not sure if the levels will be right. It should be ok if the cassette player has an aux out.

There might be a way. You would probably want the Otari to run as master, which means it would need to have a wordclock output and or, you would need to use MTC or SMPTE to sync them, which means a separate clock reader/generator. Otherwise, you could simply dump the tracks to PT then sync after...

I don't think it's worth the 50 dollars. Half that maybe. Omnidirectional mics are great if you're micing a group in a good room but even then you need a preamp with a lot of gain or a group that is very loud.

Alanis Morrissette changed her own image before she got signed. It was leaving the label tha allowed her to form her own style. On the other hand, Labels love independants because it saves them a whole lot of work and money. Let's face it, there are millions of bands out ther trying to "make...

C'mon Steinberg! What's the hold up? Digi, Logic and even MOTU have theirs already. Where's ours? Just venting.

....meh. The mix is lacking. I didn't use any Eq.
