Choosing the API Sound
there's some redundant information from old videos in this, but this video is specifically for people considering buying the @APIAudioOfficial BOX. I go over my signal path and approach just to exhibit how I have managed to make the layout of this console function for me and deliver the API Sound. I had a lot of questions before buying, and in the early days of owning the console, It's natural to run across the limitations and wonder if you made the right choice. Almost a full year into owning it I have absolutely no regrets and instead my perspective is this is an incredible value getting the sound of a much more expensive console for really very little money All things considered. I also discuss how what made first seem like a liability (Only eight Mic preamps) is actually kind of a plus. For me it's exactly the right amount until I want other flavors and not paying for channels that I'm not going to use is perfect. I hope this is helpful to some people and their decision making. Please feel free to comment and question. #recording #mixing #doylestown #producer #recordingstudio #proaudio @vintagekingproaudio @steinberg @PMCSpeakers_
