You're the smartest person in the world.

According to chess I can't hear the difference so if you'd be so kind as to paypal me back around 700 bucks so I can send this useless preamp back that'd be great.:D

Well I must be in the catagory that can take advantage of a better preamp because it takes a noticeably shorter amount of time and way fewer plug ins to achieve what I would consider a pretty good mix. However when I was using behri's and 002r pres I was never happy with any of my recordings. I...

I thought this was a joke. No big deal I guess. I haven't turned my monitors off for 6 months, same for my 002r.

Might I suggest that if you haven't you register for gearslutz and list it over there too. Many people are buying these things up over there and doing the black lion mod to them.

Would you agree that frequency charts are rubbish and don't factor in how well the mic processes the particular frequencies?

Sure send me the files, but first, what are you recording, what mic are you using and is it in the context of a full mix of just one track? I never thought it was true until I invested in good pres but you can absolutely hear a difference between a song fully tracked through lets say ada8000...

So you're saying i should ditch my m610 and go back to using behri preamps and eqing the hell out of everything to get a decent sound? Yeah makes a lot of sense, I guess my mics just all the sudden starting working much better, wasn't the preamps at all. I'm starting to wonder about some of...

I'm sorry if you can't hear a difference right away. I did, clearly. Yeah it's more difficult to pick out pres when you're showing people mp3's and also when you're not giving them a full blown mix of one pre over the other. But when you're sitting in your own room with your own monitors you...

Exactly. Most people who know their mics also know not to give frequency charts any kind of real credibility. They are not a good indicator of how a mic will sound.

There is a huge difference. Where the difference really shows itself is when it comes to mix time. Since switching to good quality preamps I don't have to eq nearly as much as I ever did. For example, I don't even eq guitars anymore. When I used Joe Meeks, Presonus, 002's and pres of that...

How do I adjust the level of my line input? It only has -10 +4 switches, no other adjustment can happen. I'm not sure what you're trying to prove but you're not doing a real good job of it. I certainly wouldn't be running 1500 dollar preamps into my line inputs if they didn't sound as good as...

Ok, first off I've owned my rig for almost 4 years, second I've recorded a lot of songs and know what I'm talking about. On my 002r there are no gain knobs of any sort on inputs 5-8, there is no preamplification going on whatsoever. If you don't believe me go ask the guys at the duc. So no...

Yep, not really any u87 clones out there and if there are some claiming to be they probably aren't that close to the real thing. There are clones of more regarded neumann's like the u47 and u67. All that aside if your going for budget mics then just try some out and find out works best for...

I hate to jump in and correct people but I got to on this one. The last piece of gear digi made that used focusrite pre's is the control 24. The 002 and 003 series use digi's own design now. There are certainly interfaces with better pres in them and this is coming from a 002r owner. Hell...

I was going to post alot of the same exact things. Vintage 30's make a huge difference. I now track my guitars in a 20x35 room and I upgraded to koj's old m610 preamp. I'd have to say the pre really did make the biggest difference. I don't even eq guitars anymore. I get the sound right on...

Jesus would not approve. Just look at how this guitar made me talk.

That is the ugliest guitar I have seen in my entire life. I like Dean's ugly ass gimmick guitars better than that ugly piece of shit. Holy fuck, were they high when they came up with this? I can't wait for the rest of the "backwards" line. Now that makes me wanna punch babies.

Everything is sold!!! Thanks you gentlemen. Everything will be shipped ASAP.
