I just bought the Blue Robbie mic preamp. I feel like this thing gets no love because it has a hipster-robot-head design. It is nothing but massive headroom, highly detailed, and the bottom end is the best part. The lows are very real, full, and slightly compressed sounding. This thing rocks...but I'll be damned if I can find 3 reviews on Google for it.

Has anybody had any experience with this dual channel pre? It's only $250 and i was thinking of using with a pair of rode's NT5s for overheads on the drums? Any suggestions?

Okay, here’s a bit of a puzzler for you…

First, a little background: I’ve set up our kit (a ‘67 Ludwig oyster pearl kit with a Black Beauty snare) with these mics:

It's an age-old topic, but I wanted to consult the people that read this thread. I have a lot of respect for you because of your courtesy, your discerning ears, and your preference for clean sounds.

I would love to be in the market for a preamp, but that requires money. However, I would like to purchase a very nice preamp or two after I finish my current album projects.

I just finished a tracking session with some of the local kids (I call them kids, they're like 21 and 22) while using some of the gear I have been sent to review.

anyone heard about it?

Hi!

I'm recording music at home using:

- Studio Projects B1 mic

- MXL V67G

- Soundcraft Compact 10 Recording Mixer.

I wonder if i ever need a separate mic preamp since the Soundcraft Compact 10 mixer has built-in Class-A preamp.

I would be interested to hear from any/all on best choices for mic preamp for ribbon mics. I am particulary interested in recording acoustic stringed instruments, especially guitar, dobro and Weissenborn guitar.
Here is my current set-up:

AEA R84
Fireface 800
Cubase SX3
Record on Dell p.c.

Which of these mic preamps should I get? I record mostly female vocals for R&B,Pop vocals. I have a Blue Kiwi and a 1176LN.Neve 1073 by Wunder Audio, Summit TPA-200B, or a Avalon 737sp?
