Yeah i know.

Its Digi.

What can you say?

I guess guys that do this for a living can kinda read between the lines.


When there is a blank space it would be safe to assume that its an SSL,Neve or API.

In the Making of Meteora DVD its a Neve at NRG, SSL at Soundtracks mixed to a half inch.

I've never worked with a RI La2a...but, I have an original, Distressor, CL1b and the LA610 comp(in the family)...but, you know what kills on my voice? The La3a (vintage). It's like an La2a without all the fuzzies and a little more mid focus. Worth checking out...you may be liking the extra fuzzy warmth of the 2a, though...

The Ri La 2a didn't seem to be fuzzy like the old one. But I've heard nice things about the La 3a.

Daniel, can you make any statement about how well the EMM functions in PCM? I know you are a fan of DSD. I need 8 great ADC channels, but would like also to have the PCM conversion be first-rate in case I only get that form of DAW capability. Thanks, Sam

no, I am not a fan of DSD, and infact I record most Projects to PCM. The EMM puts out both format, you choose wheter your output is DSD or PCM (or probably even both...). All my tests with the EMM against Lavry Blue, Prims, Digi 192, Apogee's (diffenrent models) were all done on PCM 44.1 khz. I have not heard any better PCM Multichannal Converter (and the fact that they do DSD is a nice to have for me).

I recently keep running the la2a to the 1176 instead of the 1176 to the la2a. Not always but right now I love it. Is there any theoretical reason to run the 1176 first other than preference and compressor response? Just curious.

In the re-issue realm La3a is much less expensive than the La2a yes?
