Well it is in the sense I really feel amateurish asking this. I really should know the answer to this one. But hey, feel no shame in it, totally different things.
thaks for your words
Anyway...
I want to buy new gear for my personal home setup.
I have recorded with several tubed pre's. I do notice the naturally ocurring harmonics playing their thing... bring in variable impedance and wow, can you really make tone!
But I have little experience with tube mics, being the ones I used more expensive than both my previous cars... in extremy well treated rooms. and they were the no brainer setups, Neumanns on vox, c12's on a C3 etc.. So what I am getting at is;
Though I know the pre wont warm up in a "vintagy" sort of way, nor is that my goal, what would you suggest.
- Buy a decent condenser + decent tube mic (for vocals)
- Buy 1 or 2 very good condenser and feed it into the tubed channel strip and crank until just before distortion.
This will be mainly for an acoustic project I will be producing for a singer/songwriter, at home, where I have a pretty decent treatment.
