If you are, then you're not really familiar with the formentioned DAWs and their Superior workflow. Nuendo's Audio recording , editing is a work of art adn very powerful . As is Samplitude and yes, even Pro Tools editing is Light-Years ahead of Logic's antiquated app.. It's not even p for discussion. Apple and everybody knows that Logic,in it's current state is way behind. I'm sorry. From the rumors I hear, the new DAW from apple with not even contain the name Logic.. And, I'm not comparing Logic to PAris. Paris never had a completed midi sequencer. I'm comparing Logic to the Big 3(Nuendo, Pro Tools & Cubase) I could run down a host featurs hat Logic Lacks, but you can search the forums (Gearslutz,even Logic user forums).. It's a fine midi sequencer, with audio..Where as, the others are fine audio recorders,mixers...with midi.. Please stop comparing Logic with Paris..Paris is a fantastic Audio recorder/Mixer. Where as Logic leavea lot to be desired in the big time tracking (audio) department.. I and many others (Logic owners) would choose Logic to track a band session.. No-way..

As most of you know, I'm very much into the fancy new stuff when it comes to my music. I'm into hip hop, breakbeats, dub step, software synths, and all of that. But, after I pop in the phone booth and emerge as my alter ego, I also play geetar in a rock'n'roll band. With guitar gear I'm positively Holocene in my tastes. For almost ten years I've played the same amp, a Top Hat Club Royale, basically an AC-30 top boost knockoff preamp with an AC-15 power section. I've usually put a power soak on it and played it full out. So, today I finally had a chance to really try out the Savage that a friend is selling. In my not so humble opinion I think I've always had some of the best guitar tone I've ever heard. More than once someone has offered to buy my Top Hat from me on the spot. The Savage is AT LEAST as good as the Top Hat. And, more importantly, the most stunning example of class A 6V6 amplification I have heard this side of a lovingly restored tweed Deluxe owned by another friend. It doesn't do clean at a level that would be useful outside a studio (though it's clean tones are spectacular, I think it w…

If they like the "modded" u-67's (assuming you're referring to the very popular Stephen Paul sub-micron mod), then I would recommend trying the Mojave MA200. Not exactly like the "S.P.- 67's" (which I've heard & used before), but very warm & fuzzy & in the same kinda balpark. The diaphragm on the MA-200 is only 3 microns - so, not as thin as Stephen's 0.9-micron mod, but still half the thickness of most common LDC diaphragms, and in that regard, is coser to "that" sound, and at a grand, is about a third of the price you'd pay for what I've seen clean UM57's priced out at recently. >If you were buying a mic for female and male vocals in a funk >band, would you select the UM57? Dunno, never used one - only answering the portion of your query that I'm able to :) >What else would you consider (from any manufacturer, at the >price of a UM57 or lower)? Not knowing if you've found a bitchin' clean minty-fresh UM57 for $500 somewhere I will assume you mean in the "$3k-ish or less" range. Here's my list: Neumann M-149: Sometimes can be found in the $3k range, sometimes more, but if you can find a good clean affordable one, go for it. Very smooth, almost round-ish tone (not nasal, or boomy, nor "peaky" up top), no real peaks or valleys, very even, yet open sound. Multi-pattern feature is nice to have, too.
