I got a new toy today[views:4075][posts:12]____________________________________ [Nov 27,2004 5:22pm - handinjury ""] [img] Trident S20 2channel mic preamp. This things sound fucking great. I even masterbated after i took in out of the box, then i put it in my rack. Take a listen to when a guitar player plays drums!!!!!:shocked: http://www.nowhereradio.com/handinjury/singles |

Im glad you asked josh (i remember your into recording also) The drums are in a very small room. *2 Octavia mk-012's spaced left and right ( above hi hat and ride) runing into the trident s20 preamp. *1 sm-57 , 2" off snare rim , running into a focusrite twintrak pre. *2 kick drums via ddrum redshot triggers/alesis DM5 into focusrite twintrak pre Thats it, 3 mics and kick triggers. Pretty simple, and a little compression post recording on the mix. I cant wait to try the trident out on snare and guitar tomorrow. |

| _____________________________________ [Nov 28,2004 12:29am - handinjury ""] I have never liked the sound of "bottom side snare " sound (on either of my 2 13." snares) Have you ever put one of those mk-012 1" off to the side of the snare sound hole? I like that combo better, for my tastes. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 20,2005 12:40am - Josh_hates_you ""] [img] i got one of these today. it is only single channel which is kinda lame. it also has no pad. which i am not used to. i dont get to record with it until tuesday. cant wait to hear it. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 20,2005 12:44am - handinjury ""] Is that the groove tubes DI box? No pad, that kinda sux for drum aplications. |

| _________________________________________ [Feb 20,2005 12:55am - Josh_hates_you ""] no that is the brick. the ditto with a preamp basicly. i mostly use the pad so i can push more signal thru the tube before distortion but from what i can understand this thing wont distort. thats what 3 tubes does. and it is a sweet little DI box too. i was looking at the new "robbie" the micpre from blue and it has one knob. thats it. and i thought this thing was simple. every reveiw i read about the brick was a good one. time will tell on tuesday. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 20,2005 12:56am - Josh_hates_you ""] it is basicly the VIpre without the variable impedance and all the other bells and wistles. should blow away my old mic pres. |
