Focusrite vs. Mindprint

[Frank'nfurter]

Hi all
Have to deside betwen a Mindprint Envoice mk1 and a Focusrite Voice master platinum. What would you recommend?

 

[Impy]

Haven't used the Mindprint but you can't go wrong with a Voice master, i love em...

Thanks. And whats your opinion about this:

It looks nice Seems to have a lot of nice functions inside... Are all these pieces of gear in the same price range ?

 

[Frank'nfurter]

Hehehe......nope, the Pendulum cost around US$4500.00, the others around US$300-500.

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Definately go for the Pendulum then ! haha

I've used a voice master, sounded pretty good.

Best mic pre for metal would be an API3124+

Tight bottom, hard mid and agressive top...

It costs a little, but sound a lot better then any Focusrite....

It's four channels, works on just about any instrument...

I completely agree about the API. Best bang for your buck easily. Of course, this assumes that you can spend 2500 bucks on a preamp right now, regardless of it having 4 channels instead of one. As far as the two you mentioned, I guess I'd recommend the Focusrite, though I've never really liked it(sounds a little dimensionless to me, not one of Focusrite's best moments). I've used the Mindprint stuff a few times, and was quite unimpressed with it, as it always sounds smaller than the other preamps we had at the studio, including the Focusrite.
