Post Subject: The "old" servo...Posted by Romy the Cat on: 6/17/2019
Kodomo, nope, I did not try
any new servos and I do not even think I heard any servos over good 10 years.
My main problem with servos, was that it made the same bass. I mean different avenues,
avenues instrument, different music and different playing styles looks like produced
the same bass. It was not good or bad bass but it was very recognizable bass
and that structural predictably was something the bothered me very much. What I
eventual felt that the servo was no able to play “slow”. I know that slow is
not something the typically attributed to good bass but I beg differ. To me servo
tends to decay too fast and with too low second harmonics. I love that high transient
attacks with slow and wet release. Some dry vintage drivers do it very well, I
did not see any servo did it. I do not know how the new servo work and sound
however… Conceptually any feedback system
are very good idea but in practice many of them do not deliver. If however to
perfect any given feedback system to its own excellence then it might very good
result. I never perfected any servo systems in audio and I did not listed any
of servo systems that did. What I heard/had was juts stock plan-vanilla servo implementation
that might not be good to begin with.
