Ive been having problems with one of my channels on my seb, and for the life of me, i just cant seem to get some kind of support from seb, one day there there, the next day there gone. I recieved an e-mail from them to send pics of the unit (internal guts that of which Ive done), but it seems as though seb has fallen off the face of the earth.

from what i've read, i'm pretty much sold on a Sebatron vmp-2000. its hard not having the means by which to demo gear before big purchases, so relying on credible forums like this is my main source of info before making purchases. i'm looking for another quality preamp that would compliment the Sebatron , in the same approximate price range.

Hi! I need advice to buyin a good DI and Micpre.
How's compare this two Preamp.Just compare for one channel.
How's those sound like?
Which one is best buy?
I am into Hip-Hop and Rap music.
My buget is under $1000
Thanks for all you help.

What the heck is the switch on the left side of the ON led for? There is no marking. I just got it and haven't had a chance to hook the sucker up yet, but I'm real curious to know what that is ...it's not even in the manual.
thanks

Well I've been searching for a two channel pre to record metal guitars and I've heard so many good things about the Sebatron I'm definatley considering purchasing one.

But would this pre sound good for heavily distored guitars?

I searched the boards to see if any one had used a Sebatron pre for this purpose, but I couldn't find any.

After searching through pounds of literature over a period of one month in search of a pre-amp that fits my need. I finally made my decision and purchased the Sebatron vmp-2000e from Dan of Watts-Up-Audio.

The Listening Sessions has been hard at work at The Lazy I recording studios. Listen to a selection of mics and preamps in use on recordings and mixes.

Session 6 - The Mixes - Part 1
Tracks 1 & 2 are eclectic pop/folk. Track 3 is emo/punk

I was wondering why Sebatron doesn't take a picture of the vmp-2000e for their website that doesn't have, like, a picture of some guy's lunch sitting next it? You know what I'm saying here? Go buy a black sheet and a disposable camera or something.

Oh, and when is the single channel pre coming out, if ever?

I'm searching for a high quality first mic preamp. I've gone back and forth after reading tons of articles/reviews on various pres and getting recommendations from other similar sites. I had things narrowed down to the 2NV, but out of nowhere, Sebtron popped into my life. It seems people love the thing. Any thoughts on better value?
