i know there r alot of folks who all they know is digital and plug-ins and they swear by them. But it puts them at a distinct disadvantage when making comparisons to quality analog processes. |
maybe i'm not clear but...
i'm not talking about digital vs analog in general, let's not go there
.
and it's not a question of "better" or "worse".
all i'm saying is that all artifacts or shortcomings of any piece of vintage analog gear can be emulated when done right.
if a plug version doesn't sound as good as its hardware counterpart it's because it's not done right, not because it's not possible.
analog processing too is "just" about math.
