The wave of the future in analog/digital modules
Apr 17th 2018It seems that neverending question as to whether digital eoulations are as good as analog gear can be put to rest. Its not one or the other - its both. digital recall via USB with plugins hence giving a total recall feel to it. Very well designed with plenty of bands. M/S dual mono, ssteeo processing as well. I suspect that this will be the ongoing trend in audio gear. Combining the digital realm with analog gear. WesAudio is a young upstart and they've made an impression.
