M-Audio Tampa

Post by BaSSic »

Hi,
I was thinking about buying Tampa preamp, so I was wondering if anyone has it & what do you think about it. I'll mostly need it for vocals.

Its decent. The compressor is really transparent. Would work well for vocals

When I used it on vocals, I could barely hear it working at all.......
