| Use the Right Mic and it Sounds Great. After so many interfaces, pre-amps, plugins, mics and countless hours of experimentation the TC Konnekt 48 leaves me speechless - and I work as a voice artiste!!
Despite claims that the preamps are "not top-class" they certainly suit some mics. Today, there is seldom a "bad" piece of gear, just one that is being used inappropriately. (Although, I have a locker full of equipment that is "inappropriate" for my needs).
If you want to record voice: hook-up a TLM103, work with the built-in DSP plug "Fabrik C Studio" and you can achieve results that will astound you - not once, but time and time again. An M49 sounds good too but the 103 can be trimmed to be indistinguishable.
I used to spend a lot of time working with plugins to end-up with a reasonable result; now, although there is trimming to do, the "raw" sound is right.
OK, so I don't mix music (often) but I DO make money and hate equipment-stress: the Konnekt 48 helps me in both departments. |
