RE: [motm] Recording the MOTM-preamps????

2000-03-28 by David Bivins

Just run the MOTM outputs into the 1202, adjust the 1202 trims accordingly,
and connect the master outs of the 1202 (or the tape outs if you do not have
1/4" to RCA cables) into the G3 audio card. Don't worry about all that other
business for now--you're asking for something that makes the MOTM sound like
MOTM, but you're also asking for something to color the sound. Best to start
with a clean sound and add coloring (via processors, insert effects, etc.)
after you've determined what's missing (if anything).

I most often use spring reverb and digital delay with my MOTM, myself. I
also compress it alot. This all happens via the mixer (aux sends for
effects, inserts for compression).

David.
