There ya go
I've tried out the occasional preamp, all of them below €1k/$1.5k (JoeMeek, RNP, DBX, Aphex, SPL, M-Audio, Presonus),
not very good stuff, okay, but a lateral move in your case
So basically what I'm asking between all the thinly-veiled bragging going on is whether I'm doing the band and myself a disservice, Gene Frenkle-style, by not capturing the best possible vocal sound, but only one that's good enough. Am I?
probably. what mics do you use? the rest of your chain?
