I’ve had a bunch of comments asking for us to try out the Looptrotter SA2RATE 2.
So guess what we’re going to do, we’re going to try it out!
I am told this is the first production model and the first one in the US. - So it’s rather wonderful to be able to do this.
We're going to try it out on drums, vocals, bass, and all kinds of things.
I’ve taken a song by an artist named Lilly from our old band Little Empire and we’re going to use the SA2RATE 2 to grit it up a little bit and add some drive.

That mixbus demo totally sold me; this thing gives a lot of tasty density to the material, and it can be dialed in to lop off peaks without going into unpleasant distortion. Absolutely amazing! :D

@lmpcrew 5 лет назад

Nice Warren, I use the model 1, but I have it set up as an hardware insert on a Sa2rate parallel bus as send/return, so on every mix I send variable levels from my drum bus, bass bus, music bus , vocals bus etc, so in effect I'm using the sends to create a pre mix going into the Sa2rate to drive the unit which I then blend in parallel with my group buses all then feeds my MixBus. I love Sa2rate but the model 2 have some nice extras.

@SeanKerns 5 лет назад

I'll be honest and say I'd not heard of this thing before the demo, but it is super cool. It's interesting. To me, it sounds like it's making things crisper, more defined, which seems counter-intuitive.

@L.Scott_Music 5 лет назад

On the drums I was hoping you'd turn off the low safe to hear what it would do to the bass drum. It was really bringing out the snare but without the low safe would the bass drum get bigger?

@sancessounds Год назад

would turning both the dry and wet knobs all the way up, would that basically mean the mix is at 100 percent? Still trying to understand the separate knobs for dry and wet

@ericberti3629 5 лет назад

This unit sounds great on everything! The piano had a pretty astonishing result after running through saturation.

@ShaneOBrien 5 лет назад

Hello Warren, I follow almost all of what you describe in most of your videos. Really very interesting information and great on the job examples no doubt. I have a basic question that may seem too basic for many folks, but it has been a root of basically every confusion I've ever had about all outboard gear or related plug ins. Exactly when to plug in the in's and out's? I have used an old mackie 1604 VLZ Pro to a Sony PCM 800. The problem to me is that there are four L & R sends and you would think there would be four L & R returns as well. I understand that there AUX 5 & 6 options in each channel strip (These show up in the "AUX Returns" input on the back panel, but the no 5 & 6 AUX Send either. Why is that? You'd think the AUX Sends would be equal to the AUX Returns. Therefore the ins and outs of every outboard gear never matches the amount of cables to plug in. Does this make any sense at all. I'd love to try out what you are showing to us all in this video.
