Help me complete my chain for DI Electric Guitars and Bass

Hey folks, I am looking for some recommendations on completing a mojo-heavy recording chain for my small, low-end my home studio, primarily for DI electric guitars and bass (though I occasionally record vocals and acoustic guitar).



Right now my chain is:


  1. A-Designs REDDI >

  2. Warm Audio Tone Beast >

  3. Warm Audio WA76 >

  4. Ross Martin PCM4222 ADC >

  5. RME AiO HDSPe >

  6. DAW >

  7. S-Gear amp sim (for guitars) or RedBox cab IR's (mixed in with the bass DI for some added oomph) >

  8. a majority of the UAD plugins (only missing a handful of the latest releases), most of Slate's stuff, and a good selection of Nebula stuff.




I mainly write and record vintage-style Rock (60's-70's, a la Beatles, Kinks, Stones, Who, Zeppelin, Queen, Sabbath, Floyd, etc) and Blues. I prefer warmth and saturation over clinical clarity of tone. I like my guitar and bass tracks to have some grit and growl.



I am trying to get as much mojo going into my ADC as I can afford (which isn't much right now), so I don't have to try to add as much in post with plugins.



I was thinking of getting my first 500 rack and a couple modules - maybe a Kush Electra, since I don't have an EQ, and a Neve 542 for a little tape-style saturation, but I just don't know if those will do it for me (have never heard them in real life - only watched online demo videos).



I am on a limited budget right now - can't go higher than US $3k for everything (and would prefer to have it all closer to $2k).



Any suggestions that you fine folk might have for me are much appreciated!
