Up to this point I've been a, just get it into the computer and I'll work with it there, kind of guy. It's been working out so far but I've decided it's time to start the next phase for the studio. For me that's going to be a few channels of compression. Once in the computer, I stay there so I haven't bought into needing much outboard gear up until now.
I would normally not use any while tracking but one is not always blessed with clients with great mic technique. This is even more the case as I have stepped up the workload to actually be able to afford some new gear. My studio is a little part-time gig.
So to this end I ordered a Triple C single to try out and am considering the RNC but hate the idea of buying a 2 channel unit that will only get used for 1 channel. As I still have some budget left I need some suggestions for units that work well on vocals. Priced around $500-$700.
I'm not looking for vocal channels as I have pre's I like and a console that's not too bad either. Any help narrowing this down would be great. I spent an hour looking at a Sweetwater catalog and scratching my head. The pictures are not going to get me anywhere. I need some input for something that shines on vocals. I don't care about anything else.
Thanks
