I second the 606!

Have you used the Hamptones? What is your opinion on them? I'd like to know what you think of them in general and how you think they compare to the sage pres. I second that. Im having trouble deciding and since i cant hear them in person and so many people are raving about both it would be cool to ...

Right on guys. I love these forums. I wish i had $ for both. The tube sounds like it would be a good all arounder for me to start off with. Thanks again. Ill check out the past posts on them.

Cheers!

Thanks Kayagum, though a bit of it gos a little over my head but i get the basics of it. Thanks again.

Cheers!

I depends on what you already have. I had an Octopre and 8 tracks of non tube pre's. I went with the tube pre. I really like the tube pre.

It's time for the next new thing - any predictions?

New wave of 70's fusion/prog rock? ragtime?

You can get a cheap megaphone.

i got into recording because i was sick of waiting for flakey friends to make music, so decided to do it on my own. Ive been happy ever since of coarse i miss playing with a group now and again but im getting older and everyone has lives now and no time for fun. Playing live was fun but dont miss ha...

Can - Ege Bamyasi is a great one
Ash Ra Temple - Seven Up
Pet Sounds is a must

and a dozen others, those are just albums ive been listening to lately.

I dig em, I have both nt1 & 1a. Ive used them on ac gtr, gtr amps & vox and have had good results. granted im semi new and dont own a mic closet but im happy with the sounds. been using a ADK Area 51TT lately for vox. i havent had to record drums yet so good luck and have fun.
Cheers.
