Fredenstein stuff is interesting...The digital control you can link and stereo Buss modules from the front control panel. Only works with their modules though That’s a big UGH!

I have been on a quest to build a 500 series console/hybrid setup. What are some of the best powersupply 500-10 space racks? I’m thinking price vs. performance WES Audio SupercarrierII Heritage Audio Purple Audio CAPI Rupert Neve R10 API Maybe I missed a few? Is there a power consumption issue with any of these items? I want to make sure my whole rack is getting the power it deserves! Still looking at price adjustments over the holidays.

I’ve often considered changing my home mix room to an SSL Sigma with VP-28’s on every insert, and then a pair on the mix bus. It sounds kind of crazy, but I’m sure it would sound killer and the 28’s would double up function because they are great mic pres. I’ve used 28’s on my mix bus for years and absolutely love it - I can’t imagine the goodness I’d get from having 16 channels going through them at mix... Then Jeff came out with his Sumbus which looks plain old badass and now I still am kind of stuck in limbo with my decision. VP-28 Platinum’s or standard?

OK - I really am schizophrenic. I've tracked two songs the last two days with the Kemper...and it's just sooooo easy. And ultimately, the profiles DO sound different. Like I said above, I'm guilty of tweaking everything to sound like a 67 Deluxe lol. And then I go on a message board and complain about everything sounding the same. I'm starting to really figure out the nuances of electric guitar in production - i.e., it's how the amps fit into the entire mix...not just "I'm going to tweak this until it sounds killer by itself." Annnnyway. I can't sell it. The UAD stuff DOES sound fantastic. But the more I thought about putting more money into the UAD amps, the more I thought about never being able to get my money back. At least with this, I have a piece of HW that (currently) has some value. So, I'm about-facing. And, you can sell and re-buy again! and again! and again! and yet another time! Lol I think we are all guilty of this! I'm currently revisiting old gear I used to own and sold. I really like mine!

Vincent, have you looked into a used Dangerous Music 2-buss+? Just my two cents here. I had the 2bus+ and then I ran a mix that I had been working on through the CAPI SumBus and it made the Dangerous sound like I was mixing in the box comparatively. *Not a paid advertisement [ I’m not doubting your audio findings, did you have outboard connected to your 2 buss+? I came from a console, then X-desk, then 2Buss+, now looking at the Sumbuss being possibly my next move, not that any options were bad, I made it work. Everyone has his/her workflow/sonic preference. I am getting ready to cut my CAPI teeth! It seems every few years I find myself being nothing but an audio lemming Jumping into the next pool of audio goodness for that incremental nano gain of greatness! Lol

Guess I'm not the only shill on here lol Hahaha! Hey we put our money where our mouth is! I’m just trying to help my RGO buddies discover the awesomeness that is the SumBus. It’s built like no other and it sounds like it as well. I get it, I have done x-desk with outboard summing and 500 series(slowly still building my 500 desk. I have done the 2-buss+ and yes, I have not tried the sum buss as of yet, but very interested in the sum buss. The X-desk has the headroom and a good solid sound(colored)with the outboard inserted. I am getting better results with my 2buss+ than in the box. I am planning on stepping into the CAPI world after my next upgrade.

I had the TD-25KV as well. Agree with Ragan that it is a really good kit for SD3! It worked really good with the ghost stroking and was sensitive enough. Not sure about the 17 though.

You’re better off paying $250 for IKMultimedia’s 94 plugin bundle for $250. Nice sounding plugins! You get a lot more for your money, that is for sure

There is only a few that I want. I’m not much of a plugin guy, but I did demo a few I like. But I’m not paying $1200 for plugins. Just not worth it. Then if I pay $1500 I don’t even get the ones I want. So no go for me.

It’s a shame you can’t get every plugin for this price. Be careful of the “only UA plugins” clause.
Just not worth it, unless I can get every plugin for this price.

What if you own those plugs already? Then what does the promotion do for you? In the past UA used to give you a voucher for the amount of those plugins, so you could buy the ones you don’t have. At least that’s what I did back when I started this rabbit hole.

As soon as UAD comes out with their controller everyone will be jumping to that? You think UAD will ever come out with a controller like an analog desk with scribble strips that show you which Unison plugin you have on that channel?

I had a good experience with Dynaudio in a Carl Tatz room, subs were built in the wall. Really nice sounding, it was very defined, accurate and just enough bloom without being boomy. I want accurate and effortless bass without the muddy, boominess.
