I posted this on Gearslutz, and no one responded, so I'm going to try posting it here...
Okay, so I'm recording a new album this spring, and I want to have a really warm and punchy sound. I know the M-108 was used on Toro y Moi's album, Underneath the Pine.
Anyway, I want to know which mixer is going to be more dependable, also which one sounds "warmer". I'm not sure if tape was used in the production, or if it was plugins regarding to tape simulation. I don't have the kind of money to buy both a mixer and a tape machine. I have cassette recorders, but cassettes aren't anything near reel to reel tape, though cassettes serve their purpose.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
