OK, I swear I'm not trolling here. I know these questions are asked all the time. I've been writing music in Cubase for years but all in the box. I want to expand to be able to record bands at my studio. What I'd like to know is, in the range of say $2500, what would be a good mic/channel strip combo. The main focus is to have something that will capture pro sounding vocals.

I'm looking for a general-use single channel strip to use as a front end for a software-based home project studio. Bass guitar and a RODE NT2A are the main input sources, though guitar and melodica (through the NT2A) will also factor in, as I'm into dub reggae. I'm kinda trying to get a Twilight Dub Circus one-man-show thing going on.

A channel stip has a preamp, EQ and Compressor,but would it be better to spend more money on just a preamp. I'm only really looking for one channel which is what i'll use to record vocals. R & B type of stuff.

i'm looking to put together a portable little live channel strip/recording interface centered around an fmr rnp and rnc.

since those are 1/3 rack space in size i was thinking about this for eq - http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/EQ3B/

This will be my first pro level channel strip. I'm looking for a versatile channel strip for vocals, electric guitar, bass, and acoustic guitar. I'm going to try out the UA LA-610. Here's my current signal path..

vox/acoustic:
AT 4033 -> (channel strip) -> MOTU 828MkII -> Logic

electric guitar and bass:
(channel strip) -> MOTU 828MkII -> Logic

Hi!

Newbie to this forum.

I'm on my way to purchase a budget micpreamp. Have found two good deals on two separete products; a SPL Channel One and a TL Audio 5051 mk2. The SPL is second hand and the 5051 is brand new. The prices for them are about the same (990USD for the 50501, 1070USD for the SPL)

I wasn't sure whether to post this under proaudio or budget gear. The only information I have been able to find is the usual commercial promo- information. Critiques by experts or actual users seem to be elusive. In my search, however, I did find this forum. Hopefully someone here can provide first hand information regarding their experience with this unit.

Hi folks,

I would like to get my first pro channel strip that has mic preamp, comp, EQ and etc...I am considering Sebatron Thorax, or to save some cash, a Focusrite Voice Master Pro. I'm using it mainly for demo making and small projects. I am open to other options as long as it is a quality gear.

hello,

i have a Avalon VT-737SP, and i wanna other warm pre sound.

i think the atack of 6176 (20ms) is a little slow for vocals ?
(i wanna other pre to record vocals)
