Hi,
I am a keen amateur and i am looking to purchase a bit of new equipment. At a push I can stretch to £500/$1000 (but if possible would prefer to spend less !)
I am looking to purchase a preamp/channel strip that will add something to my recordings.
I am recording mainly acoustic Guitar, Vocals, Piano and I am looking for something to give me a bit of colour, character, warmth and a vintage feel if possible.
The mic's I will mainly be using are AKG C414, Neumann M149, Neumann M147. I also have a TL Audio 5021 compressor
Does anyone have any advice on what I should go for ?
universal Audio solo 610 ?
Joemeek TWINQ ?
SPL 'Gold Mike' Dual-Channel Tube Preamp ?
Anything else ?
Thanks in advance.

I'm in a similar position -- curious about the Joe Meek, and also the "The ART Pro Channel Tube Mic Preamp" which looks pretty good. It has a pre + compressor + EQ. Do the tubes really add a "warm" sound?
Ive see it for around $320 on some of the "big box" retailers online.
You would do well with a Sebatron VMP. Very versatile.

Also have a look at the Blue Robbie. They're going for $599 on E
