Hi there,

Need Help with Microphones, Amps, and Preamp

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum and a novice to acoustics in general, so I apologize if my question is very basic. I have spent several hours searching google and various forums but haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer.

I was looking at the M-Audio DMP3, which appears to be universally liked, at its 160$ But if you guys know more obscure pres' let me know.

Just dual-channel or more please

UA 1016 - mic preamp? or line pre?

500 series preamps are a pretty popular item for discussion around here. I thought I would start a thread on the racks that hold these units. I'm going to give it a go as a first shot and as new or better information comes in I will edit this first post to try and make a pretty comprehensive list of options.

I need to consolidate 3 preamps that aren't rack friendly. I have an api 512c, purple biz, and a groove tubes brick. I want to be able to replace those with a one or two space, 4 or 8 channel preamp. what do you recommend. I want to be able to have all my interfaces and sh*t in a 10u case for ease of portability between my three locations I record at.

Hi guys,

Hesitant to ask yet another preamp question for those who are sick of them...

I'm not a gear junkie, but I don't want to be limited by my gear either. I'm looking at these preamps because I'm hearing/reading good things about them. And in fact, in the case of the Auteur by Black Lion Audio I've still never ever heard anything less than stellar about it.

I just spotted a press release on the CharterOak website. Looks like they have a new microphone preamplifier, the MPA-1 being shown at Musikmesse 2011 . There is only a locked pdf file so I couldn't grab any info on it but it looks pretty nice:

Hi everyone i m writing after a long time again. i have simple home recording setup i.e sm58, konnekt 8 and a windows based pc.
my question is if i want to by pass the preamps of konnekt 8 and buy a better microphone preamp like a blue robbie preamp. how can i get it done ? is it possible with this setup or do i have to get something else.

I've decided to start upgrading my touring rack a little bit and one of the things I'd like to add is a decent vocal preamp. I know people say you don't really need it, but it's an option I'd like to have.

What I would really like is it to be flexible. This means a decent EQ section, a decent compressor, bonus points for de-esser and of course road-worthyness.
