Preachin' to the choir my friend
I've had about 10 projects since last summer I wanted to use it on!
It's really forced me to take a good hard look at the current state of the "Boutique" market,
Lots of hype,lots of waiting...Lots of false promises.
and sometimes after the wait, BIG dissapointment..
or in many cases,you're a guinea pig for a product that was never ready for release .
...Believe me, I've been there, in the WORST possible way
..Or in the opposite case like the Distressor..it comes out ,works great,and becomes an instant classic
Guy's like Dave Derr or Geoff Daking ,,really do their homework and keep the hype to a minimum. and it shows in the various products upon their release'
I have no doubts about the Shadow Hills stuff..
It's just that the AES hype kinda created a monster of an expectation for the products too early.
I don't envy these guys at all,It's a tough business .
I'm really getting back into my old[vintage] gear latety
at least I know the designs[Pultec,Urei,Neve,Neumann..etc] have proven themselves over many, many years ..
it works well and I know what to expect if it indeed fails..not many surprises.
