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

I just purchased the trident s20 dual mic preamp, and when i hook up my Neumann 103 it sounds great. One issue is when i push the phase reverse (only running one mono mic) the response seems to change (mostly in the low end). I tried other mics and got the same results. Seems like the condenser mics vary the most.

hi guys, i'm building a high-endDAW 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 have a PreSonus Bluemax compressor, and just got an M-audio DMP3 preamp. This is my front-end (such as it is) for a home DAW setup. I would only be using the Bluemax on vocal tracks. My question is this...do I run the mic ( a Groove Tubes GT1) into the preamp first, then compression? This seems the logical method to me, but I'm not sure.

Where I should put the preamp when recording?

1. MPC>Preamp>Mixer>Computer
2. MPC>Mixer>Preamp>Computer
3. MPC>Preamp>Computer without Mixer

Thanks for all you help, my English is not very well, hope all you can understand what I talking about.
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?

So I have a PreSonus Eureka and an ART Pro channel. They're ok, but all of the true professionals I know are telling me to stop wasting money on these prosumer gear, and instead buy a couple real pieces.

I'm considering purchasing the Focusrite ISA 428. Am i really going to hear a difference in my mixes send stuff through this instead of the Eureka?

I've got a Millennia STT1 and have been trying the Avalon 737 as a second preamp. I only record vocals and acoustic guitars (mics: Brauner Valvet and Neumann TLM 103). But the 737 gets bashed quite a bit in most forums. Next to the Millennia it pales a bit on all fronts (preamp, eq, certainly comp) and it also does not provide sufficient variation I think.

Anyone ever heard of these? are they any good? i could get 2 for a pretty nice price. but i want to know if theyre any good?

What would be a good use for them?

Would they be good on vocals (celine dion,Mariah carey, Whitney houston) type of voice?

ill be waiting to hear from you!

Thanks

Hello Fellow Forum members,

I am considering buying the Fireface 800 as my first personal home recording rig and was wondering about the quality of the 4 Mic preamps that come built-in to the Fireface 800.

Anyone have any experience yet with them?

Should I get separate preamps?
