Re: Preamps

Heh heh. So I just snagged a pair of Allen & Heath GL2200 32-channel boards for a song on Ebay. They lived in a church. I got two while they were so cheap, in case one breaks down the line. ($1500 for both.)

I also forgot that I have four super nice preamps in a little Cooper Sound 4-channel ENG ...

Wow! I love these. Yes. I have to get a Fatso and two Distressors now. Well not right now but when I restore my savings! THANKS for this, these look awesome. First the Allen & Heath board, then some preamps, then these.

Completely agree, they're not usable. I do have a couple DBX 166XL stereo compressors that sound a lot better. I just need five more!

Thanks for the tip on the A & H boards. I guess I'd just go line in to the Presonus for ...

Preamps

Hello! First post, please be kind. I am looking to upgrade my home surf music recording setup. Eventually I'd like to be able to record other people's bands so I want a more pro sound. Currently using a (don't hate me) Presonus StudioLive 24, and the line ins sound pretty clean. The mic preamps aren ...
