I've been looking at the PreSonus Eureka for a front end preamp to My Firepod, applications would be vocals, acoustic and electric guitars drums bass and whatever else.

Anybody have good or back feedback on this unit?

this is kind of changing the subject, but now that you guys have made it clear that it's totally wrong going from the Sebatron into a mixer (basically another pre) and that totally makes sense, I wonder if I've made another mistake on a recent purchase...

My newly puchased Firepod works pretty great with 1 and 2 channel, but from channel 3 to 8 it feels like the preamp is totally missing. I thought when i bought the Firepod, like it is showed on PreSonus' website, that you only need your Firepod, your mic's + cables to record fx. drums directly into the application without any extra hardware such as preamps, but i guess I was wrong ?

I am thinking of buying the PreSonus Firepod. All I want to do is basic recording of demo's on guitar with vocals and hopefully record my band. Anyone have the pro's and con's on this unit?

Thanks for the help.

We're in the process of upgrading our studio, in I'm in a debate with my producer about which pre-amp to go with. We're looking for the best upgrade to get a better sound in vocals. Our style of music we've been recording has been Rap, R&B, and worship. We're upgrading our mic to a Shure KSM27. Right now we're using the pre-amp built-in our Behringer mixer.

The VXP seems more suited for vocals, but it doesn't have the "saturate" feature that the Eureka has that supposedly adds tube warmth.

I'm looking for a good preamp setup to record vocals...

The VXP gives me an expander and a de-esser, but the Eureka seems to offer a better equalizer and the saturate warmth.

any comments, rants, etc etc on the PreSonus Firepod? Thanks.

I read the manual but it really isn't that good lol Its for people who are familiar with preamps, I am not.

Someone plz break this down for me and how to use this thing. I have a RODE NT1 Condensor MIc.

Hi guys!
I've been looking for some decent quality preamps vs price.
I'm ready to spend 600.00$ for a TWO channel preamps and i have in mind the APHEX 207, but was not able to find some reviews.
ART: the vendor at the music store in town told me that his first choices on that range would be the ART Gold. Personnally i own a MP and not satisfied.
