Details and History"About a month ago my friend Bob Moore of Sound Lab Recording and I decided to spend a day with the new 500 series preamps from A Designs, as well as the Pacifica preamp. Every "EM" series module (blue, silver, red) and the "P1" module was loaded into an API 6 space lunchbox and connected directly to a Tascam MX-2424 hard disk recorder via Canare cables, recording at 44.1/24 bit. The same channel was used on the MX recorder and the same Canare cable for every test (we just kept physically popping the cable into the next unit). The mic cable was a Monster 500 series. The mics used were:Overhead: Shure SM81 Kick: E/V RE20 Snare: Shure SM57 Floor Tom: Sennheiser 421 Acoustic Guitar: AKG C451B Electric Guitar: Sennheiser 421 Bass DI: Washburn 4 string w/ passive pickups (Monster bass cable) Every mic on hand is considered a standard in its given position. It's not about the mics though, it's about hearing the differences between each preamp in this series." - Warren Dent Please post any feedback or comments in the Gearslutz thead: http://www.gearslutz.com/board/showthread.php?t=76706
