Hey guys,
Lookin for a solid 2 channel mic preamp, with some eq. compression would be nice but not a must. mostly for drums, kick snare typething. if its sweet on other stuff then even better. No tubes. something that sounds sort of like 'f**k you'.
any good/bad words on the joemeek twinq, or toft stuff?
Brent Averill 1272 Class A Mic Pre VS BAE 312A Mic Preamps
I need Single channel mic preamp. only for vocal.
who use it? good or bad?
Brent Averill 1272 Class A Mic Pre

BAE 312A Mic Preamps
which better for vocal?
I have a couple of api 512cs. In my opinion they are great for certain applications, (drums, bass, guitars)but I need something more suitable for vocals, cymbals, etc. I saw Osa makes several different pres. Do they make a pre with a bit more mids, and top end? I need a something with less smear on the highend. Bae 312a maybe?
Hi Guys,
Getting my taxes done today, and in less than a week I'll have about $2k to spend on mic preamps.
Here are what I am thinking about. I only really need about 2-3 channels of preamps, for guitar and vocal overdubs.
I am thinking about the following pres:
1. Great River ME-1NV ($1075)
So I'm pretty sure I'm going with an RNP this week, with leaves me with about $1K for another preamp. I want something that will sound good for vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, snare, bass DI and I'll probably throw some keyboards through it. Would it be wise to get something more colored considering the RNP is described as being so "neutral"?
I while back I posted a request for the next pre to fit the mix. I got a BA 312A and have been very, very happy with it. But I was still looking for a clean, present preamp with those nice tube driven harmonics to make vocals, overheads and acoustics sound "rich".
I am adding some more API modules and I love my Brent Averill Neve 1272. Does anyone own his 312a's? How do they compare to the 512c's?
