If any vets could weigh in on this I'd really appreciate it.
As of now I'm doing mostly voice over work.. I've heard the Nv1 has gets aggressivve when you push it.. which sounds great for radio imaging stuf.. Anyway, I'm currently using a groove tubes brick and a joemeek vc6q. Both i like for different things.. But I need a clean pre.
Reason the mini-me is in consideration is this. I record voice overs directly to a sony pcm d-50 portable recorder.. I'm thinking going digital and skipping the converters in that thing may be a good idea.. I'd also have to convert spdif to toslink optical through some $12 device (http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Optical-Toslink-Coaxial-Converter/dp/B000I98ZQY), I hate to throw something so cheap into the signal path.. Should I be concerned?
PS: the two main mics I use for voice over work are the C414XLS and the Studio Projects C1.. I know, opposite ends of the spectrum, but for different purposes they both work well on my voice. Anyway THANKS MUCH in advance.
