Has anyone tried the distressor with BRITISH MOD? I use distressor now sounds great but I'm wondering if BRITISH MOD IS A BIG DIFFERENCE? Im currently using nuke on the distressor for vocals and it's coming out pretty nice.

Well, if you go with the API and get a lunchbox 6-slot frame and then fill it as you go along the 512C mic pre is about $750 each. The Neve 1272 is most likely the cheapest your gonna find for a real Neve unless you up the antee to get a Neve clone that will also have eq.

I used the Distressor last week in Brit Mode on a room mic with drums and squashed the s**t out of it, then threw a filter on it and used it like a loop. Sounded killer and the client was happy. This seems like a very cool forum. :lol:

While I have found all kinds of uses for the EL-8X [model number for the distressor with "Brit" and Image mods], if you were considering a pair of EL-8X's [called the EL-8SX], the Smart Research C-2 is only about a $100 USD more expensive, and at least in my world, is quite a bit more versatile... and even with the "Image mod" on the distressor, the C-2 tracks left/right stereo far better than the distressors.
The C-2's "crush" mode sounds different than the "brit mod", but can be used with wild success in similar applications. One is not really a substitute for the other... but if I were going to add something in that price range to my arsenal... I would add the C-2 before the EL-8SX... but as always... YMMV
I'm wondering if BRITISH MOD IS A BIG DIFFERENCE? Yes, it does.
Yes, it does. It adds another flavour that can be combined with all the other settings to give you a super spanking. It is very much the same sound as the all buttons pressed in at once trick that is often used with a 1176 limiter.
