A pair of audio heads with a studio based outside Tokyo recently contacted me with their first recorded mic preamp comparison tests.
I was impressed and happy to have made friends from studio trenches far far away.
Let’s take a look at what they came up with.
The guys at Studio J conducted their preamp test by recording two songs through the following preamps:
—Chandler Limited TG2
—Chandler Limited Germanium
—Chameleon Labs 7602
—Focusrite Red 6
—Grace Design 201
—Sound Devices MP-1
—TC Electronics Konnekt 24D
—Yamaha 02R
