| IMHO the 8200 sounds great on pretty much anything, but I agree that the precision of the pots isn't the best. There are some ways around this that I often use.
One way to balance the channels is to sum the source to mono, while listening to the difference signal post EQ and tweak until it nulls.
Or you can distribute the error differently by having the EQ in an MS-chain. Instead of L/R imbalance you'll get changes in the stereo width, which often is less noticeable in a pop song. The balance trick mentioned above also gets easier in MS; mute one channel in the source while listening to the same channel soloed post chain.
The mod for getting +-6dB sounds really interesting! |
