I posted my reaction to using the Antelope clock over the Big Ben and it seems like people are a little confused and hostal about my reaction. I am just giving my reaction, because I thought it may be helpful. I always feel that people should try it for themselves and that no one should just read a review or internet thoughts. I'm Testing the clocks with Protools HD using Cranesong converters at 44.1 & 96k.
1. My tests where using identical cables and just switching beetween the 2 units. There is no comparison beetween Big Ben and Antelope. The Antelope is incredible!
2. When I said Distortion , I meant that when you switch back and forth you hear more jitter, the lower and midrange are harder to work in when using Big Ben . When using the antelope clock the midrange and low end is more fluid, clearer and easier to work with. The high end also sounds more cohesive, smoother.
3. In the last few weeks of making recordings, I am seeing amazing results . including drums. Where I still use tape machines, but sometimes people don't have the time budget or chops so we have to go to Pro Tools HD. The cymbals are easier to listen to , more fluid.
4. Using Pro Tools HD with Antelope is like having a completly different sounding system. Using the same converters, cables , monitoring, etc.
Again, this is just my opinion and instead of being upset or weird about my thoughts on using this clock, I would love to hear other peoples reactions.
ANYONE who has listened to the A/B (Big Ben Vs. Antelope) tests (Some where blind tests , some where not) Has chosen the Antelope ove the Big Ben. |
