I do not see myself buying anything to replace it unless I just wanted something 'different', maybe a more 'hi-fi' sound.
The sounds you get are ultimately smooth and rich, which works get on my style & sound.
But here's the deal, if you record your tracks at proper levels (neither clipping or to low) this kit will make you & you're vocals, bass & guitars track phenomenally.
And like I said, I pretty much 'set & forget' and get great sounds with little to no EQ
Sound
After many months of research, perusing different forums and watching youtube videos, I concluded that I wanted each of the components in this package individually.
When Zzounds decided to package all these items and sell it as a set only reinforced my research.
I must say that I am incredibly pleased with the performance of this pack.
After playing with the controls for about a week, I cannot say enough good things about these products.
It makes my bass guitar punchy, gives it a presence and controls the levels smoothly at the same time.
For guitars, it is a very versatile input device that even wakes up my Eleven Rack.
On electric guitars it give a general all over sparkle, on my acoustic ... It's just heaven.
I'm not trying to sound like a sales person, but, on vocals, once I found my "settings", it has been 'set & forget'.
The thing that impresses me the most is the fact that for vocals, I get Such a great sound, that I do not even use EQ or any other ITB compression unless I'm going for an abstract sound (distortion, flange, etc...)
Features
It is thankfully a KISS design.
There is a nice HPF on the compressor as well as the mic that is awesome for doubling and getting a fuller sound.
It is a little confusing on the preamp at first, but spend just a little time getting acquainted with everything, and you will be in sonic nirvana.
Ease of Use
Great sounds are only a purchase away- I'm serious, if you buy this kit, and take just a little time tweaking, there is no way you wouldn't be happy.
Quality
Everything in the kit is top notch, sturdy, good looking and functional, the only thing I would improve on is the dual mount kit.
The dual mount kit didn't come with instructions, and doesn't line of completely straight.
Value
If you are a pro-sumer, or even a small studio on a budget, you can't go wrong.
You can spend a lot more money on other products, but I doubt that you will hear a difference.
This is a very reasonable priced kit with quality tools.
If you cannot get a great sound, then you probably should get out of the music making business-or at least study recording techniques until you do.
Manufacturer Support
I haven't had it long enough to need support-hopefully I never will.
The Wow Factor
Every day I use these items, I am more and more impressed.
I am quite surprised that I get great vocal sounds on Every type of music.
