hi guys,
Ok, I have listened to three professional CDs. Boyz II men(cooleyhighharmony), Andrea Bocelli(Romanza), and another lady who I don't remember... right alongside a recording I made through my Joemeek vc6q.
Now EVERYBODY says that the joemeek is very colored, but when I compare, they sound the same. I.e ALL those other recordings, the pro ones, have that kind of color.
My question is : If these pro recordings, in three different styles have this warm color to them, why would anyone want a transparent or pristine preamp, ESPecially in digital recording, where there is already a lot of coldness.
I am wondering if pros only use transparent pres for instruments, to make the instruments sound different from the vocals.
I listened through a pair of headphones, computer speakers and another speaker
Finally, I read RAVE RAVE reviews about a $4000 preamp( manley Voxbox)that pros use for vocals that does exactly this: color the sound.
