In this video I compare Comparisonic colors from Samplitude Pro X4 and the Wavecolor option from Samplitude Pro X5 This may seem like a futil tool but once you get used to it it's very usefull.. Specially if you record a song with a customer and don't know right away where choruses and verses are located.. often the change of pitch is shown in the colors.. Leave comments if you will ! ;)

Please share any comparisons you've done between the UA LA-2A and Warm Audio WA-2A seen below.
Looking at the guts of the WA-2A, it looks pretty clean, not exactly the same as the originals but it appears to all be there.

I wonder how it sounds? Compares?

I just got my hands on an Antelope Zen Studio today..

Cool unit.. very easy to use.. I'll be comparing it to a M audio Profire 2626 and Behringer Ada 8200 through an ancient RME digiset that was sold by Steinberg back in the day.

I've been doing a shootout with Uad's newer preamp modeling plugins just using the preamp stage of their plugins set to Mic. It's pretty cool. There's something about them that is not a normal plugin in my opinion.

Two bands coming at sound 2 different ways. It made me think, realize (yet once again), how we lack so much life in music today. One of these bands is so over compressed where the other has very little processing and fantastic mic placement.

Santana is all about dynamics. I listened to most of Santana then compared the same show with Christina Aguilera.

Hi,
I downloaded a Waves plugin package I'm thinking of getting. I didn't realize that they had anything available that didn't cost an arm and 2 legs. Someone else had an old post about Waves plugins for $9. That got me looking at their website.

I am looking for ways to set up a repeatable microphone test for all of the microphones that my company offers, which will remove any performance variables.
I was thinking about tracking as transparently as possible (Earthworks or Brauner KHE ) into Earthworks 1022 into Avid HDIO16 and then perhaps Micing the output of this performance through a Genelec 8050.

Hi all

Here is some drum head comparisons that I did for work recently, you will have to click on all videos to seem them all. They are done in a home recording environment to show the subtle differences in them. There is also a Tiny Terror/Dark Terror demo some of you guys might like.
