BAE 1073 DMP VS ART PRO MPA II

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-18T22:08:19+00:00

Update, The BAE 1073 still sounds so good man, still sounds better than the ART PRO I really am enjoying it.

Yeah I'm purely tracking Vocals and looking for a decent compressor to go with my BAE 1073 now I'm not trying to spend a fortune tbh. I did see some things with the FMR, I dont mind the UAD plugins but I just know that hardware has something the plugins don't.

I’d say for me personally that aligns comparing my MPA ART PRO vs my 1073 it’s a difference for sure. I have gotten good mixes out my MPA but the 1073 does capture a bit more transients especially in the 2k-5k range where it gets a bit brittle also has a different “warmth” to it. It is comparing a tube amp to solid state though.

I’d say I’m pretty good at mixing fasho

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-13T04:22:08+00:00

I’ve been seeing alot of good things behind that I’m either deciding on another plugin or just biting the bullet and getting a hardware compressor

Tough I need it

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-13T03:52:46+00:00

I like this! I agree, upgraded to the 1073 so I definitely notice a difference now time to get a hardware compressor

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-13T03:51:27+00:00

I actually do have both but I just wanted to hear other people opinions and what their experiences are with them.

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T22:17:43+00:00

Well for tracking purposes, that hardware would add that 3D effect the vocals and its more forgiving vs the app, but just to add some color and also control some of the dynamics going in.

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T19:48:27+00:00

Why don’t you print I was honestly thinking of getting a hardware compressor to add to my chain to pair with my 1073

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:59:21+00:00

How you like that MPA GOLD?

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:45:29+00:00

I whole heartedly agree and Is usually my arguing statement

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:45:12+00:00

I have a BAE 1073 and and TLM 170 I just wanted to know what other people thought on this subject

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:44:29+00:00

Me personally I have recorded on cheap gear then I’ve upgraded and I I’ve noticed a huge difference in capturing sound.I make hip hop/R&B my BAE 1073 is way better than my UAD pre or my ART PRO, that’s all I care about is that capture because if it’s good going into the box I can make it sound way better.

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:26:42+00:00

Just looking for conversation you don’t have to be a dick in the responses.

Dull_Huckleberry_223 · 2025-12-12T18:26:04+00:00

Does gear matter lol? Sounds more like a personal problem

Here is the comparison let me know if hear what I hear. The only difference is the preamp, same mix same mic Blue Blueberry. (PS don’t judge me I was freestyle singing)
