Title: Oade Tascam HD-P2 vs. Busman Tascam HD-P2
Post by: rockymtnryan on December 30, 2013, 06:01:03 PM
Has anyone ever done a comp on the Tascam HD-P2 to see the difference in the Busman and Oade mods?  I have the Busman mod version of the P2 and I'm wondering what the Oade version would sound like.

Thanks

Any ideas on how the ACM might differ?

Me...  From what I can remember when I talked to Doug, the "Advanced Concert Mod" became the "Warm Mod" when he also introduced the "Transparent Mod"...  But that was so long ago, I could be wrong...

Pretty sure it went from Warm Mod to ACM....  It actually started with the UA5 mods and then transitioned to the HDP-2 when the UA5 were no longer made.

Yeah, I had a Warm Plus Mod UA5 for a while.  When Doug introduced the modified P2s, I bought one right away.  At that time, he only offered ACMs...  I asked him if I should keep the UA5, thinking that the difference in PreAmp Mods would make a significant difference.  But he told me that he didn't think the difference would be perceptible, that he had modeled the ACM after the Warm UA5...  Perhaps the same chip-set???  A few months later, he introduced the Warm and Transparent...  I'm not sure how those are the same/different than the ACM... 

Anyways, my recollection is based on faded memories of a phone call, so I could be wrong...
