do you folks know if i can put cinemags in the dual 99v?

i like the pacifica tone as well...if i could just tweak the tone a bit to make it sound more saturated...the pacifica definitely has the bigger than life sound i'm talking about..

doesn't sound that old though..

wasn´t the saturation in 70s recordings caused from shitty tape? What about tape compression while recording?
We used a cassete deck for masterig a CD of my band just to get that sound. This did the trick.
If you want transformer saturation while recording then use a mike with output tranny and load it like hell (means solder a resistor between pin 2+3 of the XLR - 2kOhms for tube Neumanns, 1kOhm other LDCs)
