A/B test for about 20 people (which was mostly engineers and students)
the Wunder on Drums and bass compaired to their Classic API 32 channel
console which they said has the better vintage transformers than the newer
re-issue API's. The Folks at arlyn were amazed at the kick and snare on the Wunder. The most amazing thing is when we soloed the overhead mic and were able to hear full detail of the tom fills where they were lost when soloed through the API. The bass was actually compaired to an Avalon DI.
PLUS the PAFOUR has a full "line-in" stage with 60dB of gain on all four channels (to handle instrumnet DI) with the Wunder it is actually like having a seperate Mic pre on the line in. You can even run your recorded tracks from DAW to warm up the tracks through the line-in... |
Are the line ins balanced?
