russellwolff · 22nd January 2008

yes... similar, but a different question

I found some samples of things cut on the blue...

(and I have been able to use one in the past)

any thoughts on how the pre's in the API stack up to them?

apples and oranges?

i am intrigued by the possible pushing analog and digital levels differently on the API...
would these give me 2 different pre sounds depending on how i drove them?

(ie transparent vs "api sound")

thanks
rw
