Howdy Pilgrims!

This is my first ever post. I've been on this board for about three hours now and as a newbie I am overwhelmed :-), but in a good way!

Hi guys!
I've been looking for some decent quality preamps vs price.
I'm ready to spend 600.00$ for a TWO channel preamps and i have in mind the APHEX 207, but was not able to find some reviews.
ART: the vendor at the music store in town told me that his first choices on that range would be the ART Gold. Personnally i own a MP and not satisfied.

Hi everyone, Im new to this and need some help here. I wanted to know whats the real need of a preamp?

What are the quality of the preamps on the Emu 1820M? How would they compare with something like M-Audio DMP3? Is it likely that the 1616M will have the same preamps? Thanks

Ive been listening to country music lately,and I must say,I really love the quality of the vocals .
My question is,what preamps,and comps are the high end studios using to get that real nice,thick, rich,round,up frt ?

Im in the process of getting rid of a lot of "rack-Crap",and saving my $$$ to get a Preampcompressor,that gives me that tone on Vocals 8-)

So I've got a few outboard preamps. I'm thinking of getting the Digidesign 002 with built in pres into the console. Is there a problem with preamping my mic's through the outboard preamp and then sending that signal through the consoles preamp? Essentially double preamping. Anyone have an opinion... or fact?

i noticed that the digi 002 only has four mic ins (preamps) so what do i do if i need 6 like if i am Micing drums. what kind of extra preamps can i buy that i can ad to Pro Tools that are compatible with the digi 002

hi guys, i'm building a high end DAW and am looking for some varied pres to cover me for a wide range of sounds. so far i'm considering the Avalon ad2022, the chandler tg2, a couple of v72s and possibly something by neve. i'm curious about my other options though...what would you guys recomend?

thanks!

I'm pretty new at this recording stuff, but I really want to get a halfway decent sounding home studio for rock n' roll going on at my place. I plan on purchasing a digi 002 soon. I have heard that the built in pre's are great on this, but i really don't understand anything about preamps at all. Could anyone give me some advice about this, and any advice that you may have for my studio?
