This topic has been deleted.. From now on any kind of "challenge" like it, "bait" posted to create a flame, will go the same way. I thought it was what it turned out to be when it first came up but I decided to let it run to see where it went. Having seen where it led, it is now where it belongs.. in the trash . . . move on to more constructive endeavors.

Is there a way to take a line out of a preamp to my computer for recording and also from the pre to a headphone mixing board at the same time? Does anyone know of very good sounding pre's that may have a line out for this purpose? The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to set up 2 seperate headphone mixes for vocalists. Thanks!

Hello all, I'm looking to step up the quality of my recordings. I do mostly acoustic guitar and vocals and have been looking at the studio projects T3, since we dont know when the Stephen Paul mics will arrive. For preamps, Im looking at the Great River MP2NV, the John Hardy M1 and the Chandler TG2. any suggestions?

I think this might be useful for all RO friends...
Nice weekend
:)

Does anyone know a good cheap mic preamp that is available? I was reading recording magazine...or maybe it was home recording...I don't remember honestly...anway there was a review of a $179 mic preamp that was called the VTB1 I think. It sounded nice in the review but who knows with written reviews right?

Hello,

I have been equipping my home studio over the last couple of years. To give you some idea of where I'm at in the process, here is an abbreviated list of what I'm using :

i need a nice preamp for a blue kiwi.. i'm looking to get the best vocal sound i can. the budget for the preamp is 2000...
i've been thinking about a-designs,Focusrite red8,Sebatron 2000e with vu...
what other pres come to mind?

Hey guys, still debating which mic preamp to get. I only have a Allen and Heath board and a little Joemeek so I need one that will be the best all around going into Nuendo. I can get a new (open box) UA 610 for $999. Great deal but would this be a good starter pre. Would it build up too much if I use it for kick/snare (or room mics) then for bass, guitars, voxes etc?

Hello folks. I don't think I've ever posted here before. I just bought some inexpensive pres on eBay. I need some extra inexpensive ones to go with my DAW. I have 8 channels of some really nice pres - Millennia but I just need some extra to pull in through lightpipe in case I need more.

I've had it in my head that one of my next purchases would be a preamp specifically for overheads. Anyone have a recommendation (I'd love to see a range of prices) for such a unit? Seems like it would have a mixing bus for instances where hard left/right panning wasn't desired (since I'm using a DAW, I'd rather have analog summing) and mid/side decoding.
