| When I first found this website a few years ago... I though mackie was kinda "high end" ... no I knew about ssl, api, neve... but all that wasnt really clear in my head. this website helped me a lot... so I bought a lil amek instead of a mackie... n I bought a neumann instead of a SE... things like that, it does not make my beats any better but I think my voices takes could be worse (when I was tracking with a bellari pre and an AT mic my takes where worse in fact, the AT is a cool mic but that bellari box was strait crap, even built in mic prez in m audio interfaces sound better imo).
But what I learned here is to know when I'm at a good studio talking with a real engineer... cause there's a lot of "hip hop studios" n "engineers" that will take your money for a non so good service. I've paid for sessions in a mackie board/u87/mindprint pre/ beginner engineer studio when I was younger n I could have had a better service for the same money (n I though it was a top notch studio cause of that holly grail neumann mic )... so no I'm not tied of the pros (yeah sometimes there's some contempt and superiority complex from some dudes but I dont give a shyt... the same dudes with you in front of them, especially as clients would be like... super cool... lol, it's like that, it's the internet...)
