So one my New Years resolutions was blogging more. So since my last post was back in August here we go.
Back to NAMM. I’m hoping to see some new stuff from Lynx and Apogee. I’ve decided I’m going with a Lynx aurora 8 for converters for my studio, but I wish Lynx would make an actual interface with flexible connectivity and a couple mic pres. As far as Apogee I really wanted to get an Ensemble, but with it only having 1 adat I/O it just wasn’t enough for me. The new symphony i/o really had my attention but cost nearly $6,000 to put two modules in it. So I wish Apogee would release something in between the ensemble and the new symphony i/o. Really an ensemble with an extra i/o of ADAT is fine with me.
Will we see this NAMM? Probably not, but hey, I can dream right?
Starting off 2011 I’m ready to see what new shows up at NAMM. For anyone who wasn’t ready to show off what they had at AES now is the time. I’m probably most looking forward to hearing (and seeing) what the new Slatepro Audio Fox will can do. Something tells me the final version will be as sexy looking as their Dragon compressor, which is also on my wish list.
Right now I’m in the market for a good mic pre or channel strip. I’m leaning heavily towards the empirical labs mike-e right now, but considering the Vintech x73i, the Fox, and the Miktek mpa-201. My favorite channel strip I’ve ever used is the Avalon 737. The pre on there is sweetest I’ve heard on vocals. If I get a 737 I have to have the black anniversary edition one, and I’m not ready to spend $2250 on a channel strip right now.Back to NAMM. I’m hoping to see some new stuff from Lynx and Apogee.
