I myself bought a Octopre and thought "wow cool eight more inputs" but have not been able to get any good recording off of it. I have to think that they can not be that bad, so not the steal this thread, but has anyone got the unit to produce any good recordings?

[goldphinga]

rhodes stage 73 mk1- having three is just silly!
roland sre555-replaced with a moog 104sd delay which sounds amazing
roland juno 106-replaced with a memorymoog plus-enough said!
mackie 1604 vlz-replaced with amek bc3

[Rufuss Sewell]

Pro Tools HD1 core card and 2x Apogee X-HD.

Why? I just prefer Logic so...

I traded out for Pro Tools M-Powered 7.3 with the Production Toolkit and an M-Audio ProFire LightBridge. Now I can use the same hardware for both PT and Logic, and I can still use the only stuff I ever use in Pro Tools... Beat Detective and the Massey limiter!

Plus I ended up with a butt load of cash from the trade. Can't beat that!

[el cochino]

Pod Pro

Presonus Eureka...which i will prolly buy again just to have, roland fantom xr, alesis ion, TL-Audio Eq 1 and Original Blackface Urei 1176...amongst other small items i was not using and yes i was not using the 1176 sold it for good money that was put to use to something that i do use...

[joelpatterson]

Focusrite Octopre.... has anyone got the unit to produce any good recordings?

Glenn

The secret of the Octopre is like so:

Most pre's have a "range" that's a little forgiving when you're setting gain. Like, for a random example, if you're miking an acoustic guitar, if you've got the pre on "6" it might sound a little low, "8" might be pushing it, so anywhere inbetween will work.

The Octopre has zero wiggle room in this regard. The proper setting will be "7.3". If you have it at "7.2." it will sound washed-out and wimpy. "7.4" will sound harsh and clippy. If you have the patience to find this magic number, you can get a full-throated and ballsy sound. I think maybe most people are erring on the high side, and from this flows the impression that it's ALWAYS harsh and clippy. And as you listen, as you're dialing in the gain, you don't hear the source getting "louder," you hear the "zone of amplifying" widen. It is some weird sh*t, for sure, but the thing is not worthless, it's just very, very touchy.

Also, an AudioArts 1500 notch filter that I'd been trying to get rid of for years, finally. And a VGA monitor & some computer desks.

Not much, really. I'm too much of a packrat to sell stuff.

I have used the Octopre a lot, mostly because it was the only at hand. Here's a link to a song were it was the only pre used for drums/vocals/git. Even used the in built di for bass! The rest was a rather economic setup also, sm-7/pcm60/pt le with oxford eq/div. waves/bf76)

If it's a decent recording is for you to decide

[feyshay]

I sold a Mangler and a Rumour (replaced by a KSP8).
Sold an Analogman Bichorus pedal.
Sold a POD XT Live pedal and picked up a POD XT Pro (used) for cheaper than what I sold the pedal for. (That was good.)

[Jim Williams]

I kept all the audio gear but sold the H3 Hummer. Actually, Hummer bought it back from me. Love those lemon laws!

What'd you replace the H3 with Jim?

Nothing, I'm walking.

Just kidding... I have a '04 Jeep Wrangler X that's my main machine now. I took some of the cash I got back from Hummer and lifted it and added a K+N air intake, adjustable shocks, etc. It's a real off road killer now. Great for jumping curbs and getting around traffic when I'm not out in the desert crushing rocks. Funny, I spend my weekdays with refined silicon and my weekends with un-refined silicon.

I'm still going through all the little things that are wrong with my FJ. I can't wait to get a bit of a lift on it and a few other things. I'm just still trying to determine now if I need the tranny rebuilt or not. I've got my fingers crossed.

[Jim Williams]

I checked those out, they didn't seem to be strong enough for me. I saw a lifted one at the 4 wheel parts store, the mechanics said it was cheaply made.

After the Hummer experience, I'm a bit gun shy on new off road designs which is why I'm sticking with the TJ jeep, the strongest one they ever made. The new Jeeps are cheaply made too. Thin sheet metal that bends to save weight and improve gas mileage.

Guess my Jeep will end up being "vintage" as well.
