Forgot to say, the H6 is nearly sold, just waiting fot the money transfer and tomorrow will be shipped to the new owner.
Having that said, the H6 is really good sounding for it´s compact and instant recording, but to my like still a little "dry", boring sounding.
You have reason that really preamps can´t be bypassed. Adding the Bg1 it sounded better (decreasing the onboard H6 to 2), but still lifeless compared to the Mytek. I was asking too much to the H6 comparing it to the Mytek.
Already have a Babyface, that is also nearly sold. It has a round, fat nice sound for vocal, but I have better preamps, but recording flamenco guitar (like classic guitar, more bright), it sounds "big" "round" but transients missing, low detail too colored.
I agree I need a mic upgrade for this, will sell the Nt5 as soon as can afford the upgrade. I consider the Oktava, the set with the onmi capsules, or a stereo pair or Dpa 4060. This last ones are much more expensive, but I can´t plan to fix them to the guitar with two flexo, so no totally glued to the guitar, that should allow me to record anywhere, without mic stand, but opinions are wellcome about Oktavas, I think they also are great for the money, and much cheaper.
My doubt now is foccused on two options: Audient Id22, or Usbpre 2. Both have great opinions. Owners of the Audient and some samples I have heard, seems it blows away the Babyface,Duet etc, regarding Usbpre, there is a comparison on soundcloud.
https://soundcloud.com/sonic-sense-pro-audio/sets/portable-interfaces Here I like better the Usbpre 2 than Babyface, but I can´t have direct comparisons to Id22 and Usbpre 2.
I think that the Audient sounds brighter, but I don´t know what to do. Audient in EU is half price, on the other hand it needs external power.
The Usbpre 2 is very attractive, and usb powered, but have read that there is no such difference from Babyface from some guy.
If I just follow what I read, seems that the Audient is superior by now, more detail, even its less portable (power dependent).
Any other opinion about this two units? No one have tried both even no at same time?
Thanks for your feedback.
