Hmmm.... interesting. to each his own I think...
I think that the rnc does sound GREAT on OH and on snare as well....
that being said... I'll track through an EMI tg1 into the box also.... so obviously I don't have any qualms with committing to a sound before it goes into the black hole....
The rnc can make OH's explode! Which is sometimes cool....
Normally, I change the compression between songs anyways... at least slightly...
