A lot of studios still use tube mics. You get a great sound out of them. If you're after the old sound you have to do it the old way. The good studios still offer you these options and I have exercised these options myself in the past, even tho it wound up costing a bit more.
...and try to record on (analog) tape as opposed to digital (protools, garageband etc) if you are after that extra bit of warmth.

| I've also used tube mics whilst recording. You can sense the air moving with them. Digital recordings can be aided by sending the final mix to a tape deck. I have an Ampex Ax 50 that I've goofed around with. Then send the output of the tape recorder back to digital. Warms things up nicely. |

Michael Lee,
Got anything on the Gibson BR-1? When I went to Gibson in Chicago 35 years ago, and asked for a schematic, they laughed at me. But they did find a hand-drawn schematic. |

The Hoffman amp site has quite a few Gibson schematics as well as others.
There was a site called schematic heaven, but it's been down for a month or so. |
