Title: UA-5 Vs. W/Mod UA-5 any links to comparisons?
Post by: bodegahwy on December 26, 2004, 04:56:17 PM
I am trying to decide if I like the W/mod for my intended use.  I went to the Oade site and got the demos of various mods, but they do not offer a demo of the straight UA-5 to compare to.  I can hear the differences between between P, T, and W...  but I wish I could compare them to the unmodded version...

I really would like to compare the W/mod to the regular UA-5 where both were done with the same mics... better yet on some accoustic music.

I also listened to the V3...  best of all but the extra 7 hundred wil not fly right now.

go to archive.org and listen to some clips over there.  do some searches:

digimod
http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=digimod%20AND%20mediatype%3Aetree%20AND%20collection%3Aetree

warm ua5
http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=warm%20ua5%20AND%20mediatype%3Aetree%20AND%20collection%3Aetree

search around like this.  might not have exactly the comparison you're looking for, but tons of samples over there.  this is how i decided on my ua5 mod choice (i now own two units, a warm and a t-mod).  what mics i use, and where i'm recording, generally dictates which box i use.

good luck.
