REVIEWS AND TESTIMONIALS
“After trying out the VMS 251 and 47 models using the 73 preamp emulation, I can say that this product delivers on its promise to offer realistic recreations of the vintage mics and pres.” – Jay Baumgardner
“I’m literally blown away. We just put it up against a real 47 and it matched so closely that they would be indistinguishable in a mix. This is a winner. You even get the 3D quality of the real mics. This is a new frontier.” – Ross Hogarth
“I just A/B’d it with my Holy Grail microphones and it was eerily close. I never would’ve doubted that I was listening to another 47 or 251, but it was the Slate VMS. Considering the VMS will sell for 1/10 the price of my mics, this is a slam dunk, no brainer. And quite unbelievable.” – Greg Wells “With the VMS and its modules I used the 251 on leads and the 800 on overdubs/mults and harmonies. The 73 for the preamp sounded awesome and I even ‘blew it up’ for saturation that didn’t make me fear blowing up our real 1073. This system allows me to make that workflow happen but only using one mic/input. Very awesome indeed.” – Rob Ruccia Live pressermans:
