"The API 3124+ gave me that elusive 'console sound' that I had been searching for. On bass, it trumps my Avalon, and on drums—wow. That gutsy midrange punch is definitely there. It's exactly what you would expect from a true classic preamp.
"It's character matched with precision. Modern digital recordings sorely lack richness of sonic character, which API provides in a really musical way. We recently did a blind A/B 'taste test' at the studio and my clients consistently chose the APIs over many other classic preamps. It just hits your ears—and your DAW—in those 'feel-good' frequencies. Hard to describe, but instantly recognizable: that's what we're after."
