I've let my Vari-Mu go, found it a bit too "polite" for my taste. I scooped up one used at $1600 and have been very pleased. I highly recommend this unit in its price point. I got a HM2 Nail a few months ago and it has been living on the 2 buss of my Harrison 2824 ever since. IMO, it's strength is acoustic and not extremely heavy pop/rock/country, etc.+1 It's extremely versatile ranging from blazing fast to slow, has side chain HPF, and wet/dry. The Nail somehow achieves both which IMO is perfect for mix bus.
API 2500) in overall color or action and those that add nothing other than transparent transient control, which I can get with a plugin. I've tried others and normally they fall into two categories: those that are too heavy handed (e.g. There are lots of good options, but here's why I chose the Nail after weeks of testing it: It's compressor action can be totally transparent even at high settings while the electronics in the rest of the path add a very classy and subtle sheen. Hey this is sort of a shameless plug but I have an A-Designs Nail in the classifieds. It all stays in and you mix into the whole chain. Using the TC and Waves Via AES, the latency is actually very low, and can switch between the end of the analog chain and and the end of the second computer on the fly for comparison. ThanksUsing two HD rigs, one just playing back the multitrack over 48 outputs to the console, The other PT rig just captures, and everything after that is on AES hardware inserts, so they work like plugins after capture, that you can mute on/off.
How much latency do you have with all this whilst mixing? Especially due to signal arriving, being processed and then converted back for speaker playback Love this set up! Congrats on getting the sound you like!Ģ. Honestly, is there a need to master once you have mixed it and if so, is this helpful for your workflow and clients etc, or do you end up mastering after this process?

Do you signal running through all the above whilst you start mixing and then perhaps tweet accordingly?Ģ. What id love to know is the following hereġ.

My next plan is to try a room correction software right at the very end.Love this set up! Congrats on getting the sound you like! Thanks for the additional detail.Ĭurious to know the following (and I just started another thread to address this).which I think you have somewhat addressed.

This is my current setup, it's taken a while to figure it all out.
