This is a 30 second clip of one of the raw recordings I did for Ben Rosenblum's Michiko Session Tapes, from his arrangement of My Favorite Things, using a pair of Avenson STO-2s, a Mackie Onyx Blackjack, and a Jecklin Disc.  It is a pure, two mic room setup, and useful for seeing what a particular plugin can do on an entire band.  

About The Recordings

Testing complex plugins or outboard processors presents its own unique set of challenges.  While a pre-recorded sample can be used as a baseline standard, which eliminates the performance variables that often plague microphone or mic-pre shootouts, even simple compressors and EQs can often have dozens of variables and interact with subtly different sources in radically different ways.  Honestly, the only true way to get a feel for the character and soul of a processor or plugin is to use it in a variety of different settings for a good length of time.  Nothing will ever substitute for experience and familiarity.  That said, I've tried to highlight a little of the core character of a handful of the UAD plugins with the following samples.  Take them with a grain of salt, and keep in mind that while I've relied on Universal's presets for this basic intro, they are not one-size fits all settings, and most certainly will not substitute for attentive listening and tweaking.
