jsrockit · 8th September 2008

Ok, I'm not going to give a price range...I figure I'll try a different route. Currently using only a Apogee Duet to record everything (drum machines, synths, and rap vocals) and use a AT3035 and a Shure SM7b as my mics. I'm looking for a stereo mic pre-amp and stereo DI (one box for recording mics and synths / drum machines) that would give me a different flavor to the duet, yet is not going to sound worse than the duet...however, at the cheapest price point. Any suggestions?
