Is it better to have 2 or more different mic preamps?

Wondering if I need to purchase 2-2 channel mic preamps or 1-4 channel. I am looking at the Sebatron VMP 2000e and RNP (or similar) or the Seb VMP 4000e. I did not know if recording all tracks on the Seb would create any problems, frquency wise. I have read that using a Neve 1073, for example, for all tracking can create some build up of certain frequencies that may not be desirable.

Mic Preamps?

Hey everybody, i had a question. When your talking about Mic pre's, what is that exactly. When I recorded, i took my mic and just plugged it into my Roland VS -1880, and used the on-board effects. Can someone explain to me the signal chain? Are mic preamps' like compressors and stuff tha you plug the mic into and then plug it into the studio? Thanks
