Comments crack me up. They are so close it’s dumb. La is slightly brighter ok thing called an eq if you want it brighter. By the time most people are done with their mixes it’s so damn treble ridden. I’ll take the clone. For that price you are talking a difference in sound by a very very minimal eq boost. No point in owning the original accept for lame bragging rights.
I agree 100%! My Lindell 77x-500 is the same way and it makes it so I kind of just have 2 different mix settings I prefer and just remember where the output is for each but it kind of limits the whole point of having a comp/mix adjustment IMO. Even the affordable Fredenstein Artistic FET Comp and OPTO Leveler mix is auto gain (Those are great comps for the money btw)
I've been a professional musician for 33 years, I have 2 radio shows streaming and over the air. Spent time in Nashville studios (where records are made) In a nutshell I've made my living with my voice and my guitar. ''So here's the scoop !! No BS or brand loyalty.'' ''THE TRUTH'' I always run my BL bluey 1st in the chain and It has an awesome warm color to it ,right after the BAE 1073, (TRUE SYSTEMS PRE IS GREAT FOR VO & radio ALSO,cleaner than the 1073 thats just a flavor thing) 1073 does not have the EQ option intentionally. I prefer the WA Pultec and love this EQ. I dont cut corners because of cost but the WA in my opinion sounds great but NOT DEAD ON THE PULTEC. It has its sound and I really like it. I dont think of it just as a pultec clone but sililar to it, The WA has more frequency option settings which I like. I use the bluey on acoustic also. But not on radio or voiceovers where I dont want COLOR. FOR THESE I USE THE OLD DBX 160A. Yea I know, but dont laugh til you hear it with your own ears. Its a GREAT tool. The guys you see knocking classic DBX are the guys that read TOO much and dont record enough. I have several comp options.This CLA BL Bluey is one of the best I've ever had. REMEMBER this is modeled after CLA's Bluey not a normal 1176. They are not the same. NOTE: when you try a new piece of hardware, learn it, live with it for a while. Become one with your hardware grass hoppa. :) I've had the Bluey for a while, sinse they became available, I have friends in Nashville that have them also looking mainly for vocal color. SOMEONE STARTED A RUMOR (the competition I'd guess) about issues and dependability. I've never had an issue, I know several studio owners that will say the same. And NO, I dont work for BL nor am I endorsed. Most gear stores offer a 30 day try it out return period. Get it and try it, Never believe anyone about gear 100%. Most favor what they own. I own a bunch of different brands and could care less about the logo on them. LOVE THE BL BLUEY. Holy shit, I just wrote a book here didnt I ? LOL. I hope that helps someone.
A "standard aural exciter" clips the audio to waveform to create upper order harmonics, then allows you to blend a bit in for some more "sparkle" or "air" or "fizz", depending on settings. As the human ear is particularly sensitive to these frequencies, it quickly adjusts by "diminishing perception" of them, leading to dialing in more and more aural excitation, until you stop for the day, rest, and reset your ears, such that when you come back the next session, it's like getting hit in the face with a box of razor blades and broken glass. Put another way... wise men use excitation sparingly, often only for temporary emphasis, and always check excitation settings with fresh ears before committing to it in a final mix.
@@StudioDealersAudiowow. Plenty have done the comparison. Nobody said it sounded bad and no it’s not a true 87ai (and that’s OK). why be defensive and assume they haven’t done their homework? Poor company interaction.
