Mic preamps, eq, mics
I've been using some different combinations
Pacifica preamp thru nail compressor by a designs
Loving the punch,clarity and dimension.
---
Ua 710 and the hammer eq by a designs got a cool 70's vibe for sure. The hammer is very musical it allows for suttke and drastic changes without damaging the audio.
it's got some cool mojo. A lot of mood.
The 710 is not as clear but the track has some cool harmonic distortion and sits in the mix pretty well.
Any thoughts by some other members?
What have you guys been using .

Classic PULTEC PASSIVE EQS with API 2520 makeup gain stage
Particularity on the Pulse Techniques EQP 1A3 . Not interested in other clones.
I'm addicted to Pultec's this month and want to know how sweet the high end is on the SS compared to the tube version?
I know you are looking for opinions on these or have some if you are here.
I have 2 MEQ-5's tubes and love them. I use them together with the Millennia NSEQ-4. The high end on the NSEQ is crazy sweet, it is SS.
This takes care of the master bus sweetness while the MEQ's take care of mids.
Pultec MEQ-5 vs. MEQ-5 SS
I'm wanting a classic mid range EQ mainly for vocals. Anyone ever have the opportunity to use the Pultec MEQ5 Midrange EQ. There is an SS version but this one has the API gain stage. What do you think the difference is vibe would be?

Balanced vs. unBalanced
My new Millennia http://www.mil-medi…"]NSEQ-4[/]="http://www.mil-medi…"]NSEQ-4[/] arrived today. Its a beautiful sounding eq. After hearing this, I'd love to a have a few of these now. Actually, more like about 12 of them (one for each channel).
It has an optional unbalanced in/outs.
Hopefully this isn't confusing. I've never used unbalanced gear before.

Sonic foot print pre vs. eq vs. comp
hey all jw about your thoughts on where you find the most value of a sonic 'footprint' in other words, 'messing w/ the natural sound'. i feel like so many people talk about the character of pre's but eq seems over looked. i tried a bunch of pres/channel strips tonight (api512c, drawmer 1960, PreSonus eureka, calrec peq something, studio technology projects something) i'd say the sounds ranged from vintage, to full smooth, to Tascam.

Millennia NSEQ-2 with Fred Forssell board
wow, pretty nice sounding eq. doesn't sound anything like the stock version. very sweet midrange, actually sounds sweet all around. Just had a listen to Dave Mcnair's and was quite impressed. Pick up a used one and pop in the $800 board and you've got a nice eq.
