To my ears the great river preamp is versatile enough to use anywhere on anything with any mic and it will provide a sturdy track in the mix.
Great river preamp vocals.
Transparency and vintage harmonic structure are both achieved with nv series preamps.
Much less boxy in the low mids.
I really want one of these guys.
If i had to pick a one size fits all preamp that has personality but works for just about everything it would be the great river me 1nv when tracking vocals on dozens of singers with mics ranging from a shure sm7b to an aea r84 on condensers such as a neumann u 87 ai or telefunken 251 this preamp will not disappoint.
When you hit this top level quality stops being an issue.
Lots of depth to the tracks.
Don t get caught up in what s the best vocal preamp or the best one for this or that.
Great river me 1nv and mp 500nv.
This desktop and rackable preamp offers the same definitive sonic fidelity and expert craftsmanship as all great river products.
The me 1nv single channel mic preamp greatly modernizes and improves classic british design.
The great river mp 2nv is patterned after the classic neve preamplifiers with it s own advances.
The great river mp 2nv is a stereo version of the me 1nv that will add an enhanced image to your recordings.
The great river me 1nv also has a full 70db of input gain so you can take that prized ribbon mic out of the cabinet for a rich creamy sound.
When it comes to sound the often unwieldy low mids that a classic 1073 or 1073 clone will tend to have is much tighter and punchier with the great river preamp.
