I am sure the Bricasti IS a wonderful unit...I just haven't heard one yet to be able to say personally. But comparing it to PCM 70-96/300 is not doing it any favours. Of course it would be better than those. |

I think it's safe to say the EMT 250 already sort of did that around 1977 |

The funny thing about that video is its a promo for the M7 yet the EMT absolutely sounds better... Regardless of what he says. |

As to which one is best between M7 and 96, due to their almost incestuous parentage, I reckon they can be made to sound so close that I wouldn't base any purchase decision on it... |

We have a 96 and 3 M7s here. You absolutely cannot make a 96 sound like an M7. |

If you think so, you may want to listen again. EVERY person who has shot them out in studio A has picked the 96 out with EASE. Blind. Every one... ... |

You may prefer the quantec but I seriously question your ability to hear if you say you made them sound the same. |

...the Yardstick to my ears does a very nice Church and Chapel and Catehdral, but that's it. And there is a tinge of chorus and phase to the sound that make it a bit more "processed" sounding, but certainly usable in a lot of things. |

I would by another M7 before another Yardstick. |

I love my M7 so much that I bought a second one to travel between the studio and home. |

Do you mean you use it as some means of locomotion? |
Geoff Emerick de Fake wrote on Sat, 29 May 2010 18:33 |
My prize would be the explanation; do you mean you bought one that satays at home in addition to tne one at the studio? I'm thick... |

No worries, I mean that the second M7 is racked separately so that I can use it both at home and at the studio (our patchbays are provisioned so that engineers can use outboard gear that isn't permanently racked). I only get about 6-7 days a month at our studio so much of my work is done at home. The Bricasti is one of several pieces of outboard gear that I have a pair of because I can't see working at home without them; it's a bonus to have a second M7 (or API 2500 or whatever) that I can bring to the studio from home and use when I'm mixing. |
