Default Recording voice with tubes?

Alright. I want Ampex 350. I used to service one of those.


There's someone who is building an accurate replica of the Ampex 350
mic preamp and output stage, complete with the big VU meter and
chassis. I can't remember who it is, but there was some recent
discussion of it on the Ampex list recently. Maybe Scott or Paul still
has that on file. It costs an unreasonable amount of money, but at
least it doesn't take a good recorder out of circulation.

Or do you mean that you want an Ampex 350 to record with? If so, bless
your heart. Unfortunately, you'll have to pay a lot of money for it
because people are raping them for the "phat toob preamps" that they
can get a lot of money for.
