🎤 Vocal Chain of Dreams
When we track vocals, we want tone, vibe, and a little bit of magic right out of the gate. This combo delivers every time:
Heritage Audio 73JR – classic Neve-style preamp with warm, rich tone and just the right amount of vintage character. Makes vocals feel bigger and more alive before we even hit a plugin. You’ve heard this on countless records!
🔹 Black Lion Audio Bluey 500 – a punchy, musical take on the 1176 compressor. Smooths things out, adds presence, and keeps the performance locked in without feeling squashed.
Together they bring the color and control that make a vocal feel finished even in the rough stages. Big sound, low fuss — just how I like it.
