If this is a wrong board for this topic, you can move it to a suitable one.
Anyways, saw this video today and became a bit worried about the sound that you can get if you're working strictly ITB.
As you can probably hear. The analog recording with all the chaos going on with it ends up sounding more natural and pleasing to ear than the digital one, especially if you're aiming for that authentic 80's and early 90's mix.
But here's the kicker. That analog recording went thru an analog console and its preamps and channel strip, it wasn't only tape. And to add to this point. Michael Wagener went digital already back in the 80s, he just used outboard analog gear + console with it and still had great sounding albums.
So what i'm thinking is that maybe you could do it the Wagener style and use a DAW with analog outboard gear to nail that old school sound. Any thoughts?
