real warm and fat sounding channel strip
joemeek is known for its warm, colored and special sound,
from the moment you switch the compressor button on instantly hear the sound become warmer, an opto compressor works different than normal vca's, it reacts on light and thus gives a different sound than we're used to.
I mainly used this channel strip for recording vocals (with an AKG c414),
its also a (bass)guitar preamp cause it has a low-Z input, and the Fathead SCREAMS on guts!
the clean sounds are warm and full, but its easy to get a ruff and harsh killerdistortion,
the opto distortion gives a special bright sound that makes your solos cut trough the mix like a warm knife trough butter.
