Mixonline asked London/Belgium-based engineer Wes Maebe to spend an imaginary $100,000 outfitting an imaginary studio. The place may not exist, but it sounds awesome!
Included in his selection of excellent gear are the AT-3 tube mic pre and the Lovebomb tube guitar pedal ..check it out


















































































































https://se.trustpilot.com/review/casinosveriget.com is where I sometimes read how people describe their own gear purchases in their own words, and it made me think about how quickly a $100,000 budget can vanish once you start adding tube preamps like the AT-3. Picking a handful of character pieces over a room full of mid-range gear seems like the real lesson here, since one great preamp usually changes more recordings than five average ones. I've bought enough budget gear to know that chasing quantity first rarely pays off.
