Presonus Eureka Preamp

Does anybody know when this is supposed to be shipping? It looks like it's going to be a nice preamp. There's a blurb on their web page (http://www.presonus.com) but no shipping date. It's supposed...

Re: preamps for drums

I will have to second that. I have owned a Digimax96 for several months now and the Digimax totally holds its own compared to my other higher end preamps. And the build quality/construction is...

Re: Tom Mics, no really....

Check out the Audix mics on toms. D2's sound great on toms and I like their D4 on floor tom a lot.

Re: Running 2 OSX macs in tandum

I would recommend getting a separate midi/audio box and syncing the two systems up via midi. Try to find something with ADAT in/out as well as midi so that you can transfer audio via lightpipe like a...

Re: new preamp

I agree with the other guy. I would put several of them on a credit card and return the ones that don't measure up. Almost any respectable dealer will give you the opportunity to hear it on your own...

Re: The King (of budgetland) of Drum Preamps?

I definitely think the Digimax LT would be the way to go. I have the Digimax96 and although the limiters are great, I mainly use them for vocals and guitars rather than drums. I am very happy with...

Re: Will the 002 rack have an ASIO driver?

I would have to agree. Digidesign Hardware is made to work with their software. They really don't give a flying crap about supporting anybody else's software - I don't care if they say it's ASIO or...

Dynaudio BM6a or AIR6a??

Fellows,

Sorry to beat a dead horse to death even more:

I am just wondering if the Air6a is that much better than the BM6a? I know you get the remote and the D/A converter, and the software,...

Re: Dynaudio BM6a vs BM15a

Thanks for your reply.

I also was wondering if anyone has heard the BM15a verses the BM15 (unpowered).

They seem to have the same components but the frequency response is wider on the powered...

Dynaudio BM6a vs BM15a

Guys,

I have heard both of these monitors and loved them both. Unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to really mix on them in my own room. I am sure that the 6a would be fine for my current...

Re: About to take the PLUNGE

Oh by the way,

If you can't afford HD, why not get a refurbished Mix Plus from Digi??

Then you can get an Adat Bridge (with 16 channels of ADAT i/o) and a couple of nice converters with...

Re: About to take the PLUNGE

The main advantage HD has is the fact that you already know ProTools. The speed and simplicity of PT is still the leader in audio editing IMHO.

Also, I am confident that PT has the best sounding...

Re: Opinions on Presonus M80

Thanks Damon.

Drums are mainly what I want the M80 for. I like the fact that it has a mix bus so I can use 2 mics on the snare (one top/one bottom) and flip the phase on the bottom mic and then...

Re: Opinions on Presonus M80

I know I can find an M80 on ebay under a thousand, but I really would rather have a warranty. Plus, with this $100 rebate, it's not that huge of a difference in price. Thanks for your input.

Opinions on Presonus M80

I own a Digimax96 which I like a lot but I'm thinking about getting an M80 to have 16 channels at one time.

I really like the fact it has transformers and a summing stereo bus but I've never...

Re: How fast Mac do i need to run Mix system???

I'm on a single processor 867 and it's great as far as running RTAS plug ins. However, I have noticed once in a while that I actually long for a little more, so if you can find a 1gighz then more...

Re: Has anyone seen the new Tascam Firewire Audio/Midi/ controlsurfce yet?

It looks like complete vaporware to me. Whenever a manufacturer posts a computer generated image on their site, it makes me worried. Hope it doesn't take them a year to ship this thing.

Re: Focusrite vs Presonus

Re: 002 Rack: What\'s the fuss about?

I'm glad to see they finally busted up the 002rackmount.

With my Digimax96, I'll have 12 preamps, 4 line inputs in only 3 spaces!!

THANK YOU DIGIDESIGN!!

Re: New LE interface to replace 001?

I would think Digidesign must be putting a new 001 with Firewire out.

It only makes sense. But I really don't have any inside scoop.
