Splotch « Good preamp, DI Good »
Published on 03/19/12 at 07:01Double transistor preamp, iil has a Hi-Z input on channel 1 and entry combo XLR / Jack.
Two line outputs, digital outputs 24-bit AES, S / PDIF coaxial and optical, the sampling frequency can be chosen at the rear 44.1 / 48 or 96kHz, it can also be set via an external clock 'wordclock input and in this case the frequency 88.2 kHz is available.
On each tract there is a low-cut positions 3, 40, 80 or 120Hz, phantom power, phase reversal and a pad, the gain ranges from 6 to 66dB.
On the way HMX is a focntion simulate the microphone input of a series of product is Hearer can adjust the amount of color via the dedicated button. On channel 2 Variphase function allows the signal exactly out of phase which is very convenient for taking with two microphones.
The only downside I find to say is the lack of food and switch with external power.
UTILIZATION
The manual is brief but adequate controls are few and fairly common for most of the standard equipment of this kind.
The buttons light up when he is engaged, the front is easy to read a very good point.
A damper on even the food that is cut, mine whistles terribly extreme high, after contacting the seller it seems that it is a faulty because it assured me that I was the first to m complain and that he had already sold some. I ended up wrapping it with foam and the problem is solved.
SOUND QUALITY
This preamp is quite transparent without surgery, it is precise but not with his "tough." HMX function is not a toy because it really brings a touch darker with a less sharp "bright".
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year and a half now, at work I use a Focusrite ISA828, a OctoPre LE, a Symetrix 528E I and I worked with consoles Allen & Heath GL series and WZ3, TAC and scorpio the yamaha digital 01v/02r/03d, LS9, M7CL. I also owned a Presonus card FIREPOD and ECHO.
For me it is clearly a superior clean preamp with a soft but still accurate enough while remaining broadly neutral, it is much less typical than the ISA preamp or ACT and much less dry than the yamaha preamp.
For me it is a good choice despite a quality / price ratio remains through nine because the quality is to go. On occasion this is a bargain.
