UTILIZATION
Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
The manual is clear and sufficient?
No need for manual, it's just a little time to devote to know the address and understand their reactions (with ears ^ ^).
Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
Yes and no ^ ^
is a tube preamp, with limited, so we can quickly get to something loud and pompous in the hands of anyone. His request a minimum of mastery!
SOUND QUALITY
The sound of your instruments or microphones is properly reproduced?
Yes and no, I rediscovered some microphones I thought I knew and I knew we could not do anything with her depends on her looking for.
The preamp is it clear or does it brings a stain?
This is a tube preamp!
If you are looking for something ultra-neutral, on your way, it's like Avalon, Universal Audio etc ... you buy for their sonic identity, and not for their neutrality!
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
3 years
What is so special that you like most and least?
The +
its color and its dynamics
The -
it colors quickly, so on some instrument and some sound research, it is difficult to have a neutral sound.
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
yes
How would you rate the quality / price?
Used today is improper to limit it to sell the price for me, it is much more expensive, when you see low-end preamp or economic (Focusrite, midprint etc ...) that sell at the same price, I think the quality / price ratio gives it a gadget and medium range, which is far from true!
With experience, you do again this choice?
Yes, without hesitation, because I love its color!
the problem is such stuff is that there is often a fool of service, which will destroy the reputation of this product with the phrase that kills:
Is shit, its saturation, its pump and more sound and colorful too!
it's like crossing a downtown with a F1, Ceres is hardly the first speed and high-passage, one is caught behind. Buys a twingo!
well sure, in the hands of an idiot who just know and believe all manage to light it, so its colors more or less depending on the setting and it is the goal.
if want to have a neutral sound, has taken a transistor preamp
Plus you get a 0dB the more colors, if you want to have a vintage, you can not do it with a preamp other than this kind of stuff.
it's like a magnetic tape, his breath a can, but you'll never be a compression and the protools or cubase.
Again, on your way if you want a preamp is neutral and bought something to transistor preamp is a character to put next to a console decorated and warm things.
