Studio 601 teams up with Jaimee Harris to showcase Warm Audio!
After meeting the Warm Audio team at Winter NAMM '18, we had the idea of capturing a performance ONLY using their gear to showcase what it can really do. The results were really something else, we are totally blown away. The mics, pres, and outboard they offer are incredible products, especially at the price they're offering. Here is a link to the multi-track so you can put it in your DAW and see for yourself! All audio was recorded at 24/88.2.
