I've said it before, but the DVC is really good. Limiters are either great or terrible, depending on signal- they get a lot of use around here for vocals and bass. Great unit, price regardless!

One last question... the Presonus MP20 claims to be a discrete class A preamp. Anyone heard this thing? Good price if its decent.
Is there a search function here?
Thanks,

Hmmmm... not finding this DVC anywhere... point me please ;)
I'm kinda thinking about making 3 or 4 signal chains consisting of RNMP, RNC and a Speck. Sound smart? I wish they would post SOMETHING on the FMR webpage about it, maybe a little teaser info or something.
THanks,

If you're talking about posting something on the FMR webpage about the "RNMP"...it's in the design/planning/pre-beta (hell, pre-alpha) stages of development. Some ideas have been kicked around, some designs messed with...but at this point it would be seriously premature for Mark to post anything about it.

How does the Langevin el op compressor compare to the Avalon 737?

IMO it is an incredible value. I played with one for a few hours and compared it to my pair of voxbox's. For the price difference (and in general) I was very pleased with the quality...

It can be had for about $1100.

That seems pretty low for a new unit, or is that from a dealer so desperate to make a sale they are willing to lose money on a deal and hurt the whole industry? :mad:

He was referring to the Langevin DualMicPre w/EQ which carries a retail tag of $1475 which he found for $1100 (not the DVC which retails at $2000)...

Are the new mic pre out modified DVCs in stock at dealers now?
