The whole point I'm making is that the 737 is a very good pre. Not the best by any stretch, but if you're a real good engineer you can make these things sing. That is a fact.
No doubt and without a question... (personally, I'd replace 'sing' with 'sound good')
As I had said before, a SM57 and a 4track cassette can be made to sound good with someone who knows how to rock it. Again tho, I just dont like the 737.

making and mixing records isn't a pie eating contest. I think the mixes sound good. Personally, Im werking on a track with Disco D and MC Messinian that (disclaimer: TO ME) would crush anything Ive heard but I cant post due to contractual obligations. I already posted an accapella, anyway
