hi guys i just purchased RODE NTK TUBE MIC...can anyone suggest me the suitable PRE...for this mic...i recorded it direct first..on songs like ballads or slow tempo song it really sounds warm.. and on the fast songs it is'nt sounding warm... why is that. can anyone explain this to me...

hey guys... ive just had a thought... ive been looking at a new DI box recently... just a cheap one to tide me over for a while and have read that most can cope with speaker levels signals...

I am going to look at an old Presto 5 or so channel tube mixer this afternoon. Does anyone have any info on these. I can see from here and on the net that they made record lathes and some pro-audio-gear... Sun studios for instance had some Presto equiptment... which was about the only reference I could find. Any info would be elpful
thanks

Thanks in advance

Hey all, planning towards new additions. Primary style Gospel-Hip-Hop, RAP, R&B, etc. Current pieces:

SP C1
MXL V69M
Focusrite ISA 428
MOTU 2408MKIII

I'm wanting to add to my pallete the Vintech X81 and either the TUBE TECH compressor or the Distressor. I also am locked on the Blues Kiwi and the AD card for the ISA.

hi,

The search function on this site isn't working so I have to ask. Is the VTB-1 any good? Yes I realize it is cheap, but is it basically a Mackie pre with a tube?

I ran into a money problem and can't afford a Sebatron , but wanted to take advantage of tube.

Any decent tube pres at a nice price?

Has anyone used the tonelab for vocals and with an acustic guitar.
I have a Tascam tape recorder and a mixer. The sound sounds nice
and the reverb is O.K.
Help

I have a pair of Kiwis and Gefell m930s that I am happy to have. HOWEVER, I would like to expand the mic selection with one more mic that would be great on male/female (at least 50% of the time) and great on flute. Rich, smooth but not muddy, especially because it will be in a big mix. Also, if it would be good as a third mic on piano bass, that would not bother me at all! THANKS

Im interested in getting a Bellari Tube stereo comp model #RP282a,has anyone had any experience with this unit--good and bad 8-)
