Published on 11/19/03 at 15:00Bought from Musician's Friend for $99. I needed it to record vocals and bass because they've never sounded "present" enough on my records. The upper range in my voice also needs taming.
Fairly straight-forward controls, and I heard a noticeable difference in the very first vocal track I used it on.
The rubber control knobs are of the type that could easily fall off and the metal pole inside bent. But I use mine pretty gingerly, so I don't see any danger on my part.
Pretty good, though not exceptional. The casing feels a little thin, but again, it hasn't sustained any damage yet, so I can't tell.
I've been satisfied with this unit so far. Is it as good as full-size rack-mounted units? Probably not. But is it a friendly-priced piece of gear that can improve your sound? I think so.
