Used as a microphone\/line preamp or as a DI (direct) box, the unit is designed to work seamlessly with any recording, live sound, or electronic instrument setup. The preamp's active balanced solid-state input delivers extremely low noise and good common mode rejection. The Hi-Z input prevents the loading of connected devices, perfect for DI or line level applications. The preamp's second stage 12AX7a tube runs on a regulated DC voltage providing an additional 20 dB of gain. The compression circuit features a VCA-less design and utilizes optical electronics coupled with a 12AX7a vacuum tube gain stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionHeaders js-hiddenFeatures\" data-selenium=\"sectionHeaders\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eTube-based microphone\/line preamplifier with up to 80dB of gain\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eHand-selected 12AX7a tube\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eOptical compressor circuitry for transparent dynamic control (no VCA)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eXLR balanced inputs and outputs\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eTransformer isolated XLR output\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003e1\/4\" unbalanced inputs and outputs\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eSelectable output range for line\/instrument interface levels\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eLED meters for Tube Warmth, Gain Reduction and Output level\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003e+48V phantom power\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003ePhase reversal switch\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"js-featureSectionDL\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003eCustom extruded aluminum chassis\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ART","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":17079519379526,"sku":"TUBEMP\/CU","price":159.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/products\/art_tube_mp_c_tube_mp_c_tube_1462915238000_844839_1.jpg?v=1583953739","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/art-tubemp-c","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
