So I've figured i'd dabble in the satanic, the morbid and the occult that is analog gear, worked up a budget of 500 euro more or less
The problem is that i'm very inexperienced in terms of analog gear, and what items are a must have, except the industry standard like a 1176, la2a or a distressor, but those are way out of my price range.
I think what i'd need is a bus compressor to warm up the ITB mixes, or maybe a compressor that I could use on the vocal or bass bus couse those have been giving me problems in terms of sonic quality.
So if you guys have any idea how to guide me in the direction of gear that will give me the biggest sonic benefit then i'd be very glad
