Re: Voodoo Lab preamp
I had it demo'd to me at the Voodoo booth at NAMM this past Winter, but didn't play it myself. I'm always a little iffy, if they seem to just wanna demo it, I don't bug em to try it hehehe. Anyway...
It had a pretty decent high-rev Marshall kinda sound, to me, which I think is sorta the sound they were going for. A lot of these preamp-only units sound weak, kinda dull and lifeless to me. The Voodu had a pretty thick, tubey sound, and pretty "alive" sounding. I'd be interested to stick one in my rack and see how it compared to my Egnater Marshall emulating modules. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] As in, on its own, I wouldn't get MY nasty thrashy sound out of it, but I'd like to see what my other rack junk might do for it. To me, the sound is only 2/3 of the equation, and it's gotta have good feel/response to make it a good unit. Sometimes the sound and response can both be completely saved by the right support gear.
