UK trip about to start...(Photos added)

yeah, not the state of the art preamps, but way better than people say they are.
I prefer them to the RME preamps by a mile for example.
could do a little shootout against the API later

That would be much appreciated. I've only used the C24 preamps, but I guess they're pretty much the same as in the Control24, right? Not stellar indeed, but they seemed clean enough to be completely usable when some extra preamps are needed. The lack of pads is enough to drive me nuts, though, especially when the studio in question has failed to stock up on external pads

Yeah the Octopre MKI are very good. Super clean and open.
Its a shame focusrite stoped producing them and went with the MK2.

The new MK2 are FET-based but the MKI were transformer-based.
I am always keeping one I open on ebay and stuff if I find a killah deal on an ocotopre LE or Platinum.
They are IMO the best low-priced preamps.

So Lasse you now have like one millions ocotopres (you also have the LE, right)
do you wanna sell the LE

 

[Lasse Lammert]

I'm actually thinking about selling the LE, yes....need more db25 cables, and they can be pretty expensive

 

[gabriel g.]

hit me up with a pm if you thought about it.
