I still don't get this idiotic topic. Analog doesn't sound better than digital, it simply colors more or has its own signature. It sounds different. So yes, you might get a warmer sound using ONE analog outboard gear, however, there's no problem getting the same sound with several plugins.
Go ahead, bash what I'm saying, but almost every time this topic arises people are talking about "running your DAW signal through a tape recorder/analog gear for that sound".
Analog gear might be better than digital for getting ONE sound, but definitely not for all sounds. Stop being biased, taking everything you hear on this forum for good fish. It all depends on what you're looking for.
There are tons of tube and solid state saturators plugins out there, which gives you the same result. If you want the same result as a specific outboard gear unit and can't achieve the sound with plugins, then you might be better off getting it. Saving time and all.
Innovative technology is everywhere now days.
Alas, the audio/music industry is the only industry that actually goes backwards.
