![]() Today's vocal chain is a U47, BAE 1084, Amtec valve EQ, Urei LA 3A, Urei 1176, Thermionic Culture (the Phoenix), and derr-esser. My vocal input chain is usually quite loaded. The sound is very pure, the 1084 matches great with a U47. I have the pre set up next to the vocal mic. I have not racked it, or tied it into the patch bay. My BAE 1084 will be my go to traveling Pre amp. ![]() My BAE 1272's tend to really work better than the above mentioned when being used on room mics, and close micing a single coil pick up guitar, through a twin or AC-30. ![]() This Pre really stands out with my existing gear, which includes some vintage BAE racked Neve 1066's, and Neve/Ams 1073's. Imogen Heap, Billy Joel, The Rolling Stones, Simon Townshend, Robbie Krieger, Urge Overkill, Lizzy Grant, The Cheeters, Cypress Hill, James Taylor, Los Lobos, Soloman Burke, Joan Osborne, Taj Mahal, Mark Broussard, Norwood Fisher, Shawn Colvin, Hundred Year Flood & Sting Plus mark and the staff over at bae are totaly professional and a pleasure to deal with. Did I mention they plugged right in to my vintage neve 8014 frame from 1970 flawlessly! From the point to point wiring, to the audio traces on their cards, original St Ives (Carnhill) transformers, nickel plating, impeccable craftsmanship and wow! No old dirty switches and pots. There is nothing comes as close to my origional neve eq/mic preamps as bae products, and in my opinion, bae products surpass all the competition in build quality. Two thumbs way up! A win in my opinion, the bae 10 modules sound every bit as good as the original Neve modules I have used my whole career, I've had blind fold audio shoot out tests in my vintage neve room and there is absolutly no difference.
