If I had to choose one preamp to do it all:

Api 512.

Maybe not number one in every application, but always flattering and sounding like a record.

At least in rock/pop music I don't want the source to sound exactly like the source.

I like the source to sound like a record.

The Api is giving you these ready-made tracks that won't need a ton of work to sound fantastic in a mix.

Imho.
