Good pick!

(This content has been automatically translated from French)
Analog preamp transistors 8 channels (I did not take the ADAT option), 2U rack. Designed in Australia (!) And probably made in China.
Gain adjustment, Pad input gain, phantom power, low cut and phase switch on each channel.
The connection is complete (inputs / outputs XLR and TRS) and decorated with a line of insertion on each channel.
I forgot: Integrated power supply (230/120 V) AND on / off switch (it is rare on amateur equipment).
The building is neat and gives confidence, but it is very simple ....

UTILIZATION

Very simple to install and use, the manual is clear, but there is really no need.

UTILIZATION

Very simple to install and use, the manual is clear, but there is really no need.

SOUND QUALITY

I bought it to by-pass any very preamps recorder Korg D888 (8 simultaneous tracks) that I use for mobile terminals (rehearsals, etc ...).
The preamps are very good (for the price), transparent and especially quiet (no noise). Headroom is extended.

OVERALL OPINION

I just got it, I did some tests that show great promise. Of course, this is not the Focusrite or Presonus (not to mention the very high ranges), but, considering the sound system in its entirety, this machine is certainly not the weak link: comparing with preamps my table (Allen & Heath) is quite comparable, or slightly above.
Full settings on each channel, and 8 inserts is a real plus. For now, of course (it's a little early), nothing disappointing or insufficient. Yes, I would have liked a bar graph per channel, but do not abuse this rate.
The ratio Q / P is very attractive (promo). I will edit this review when I have a little more perspective.

analog, with optional digital card (word clock and adat), I personally use it in analog, 8 XLR or TRS, 8 inserts.
front console output to XLR or TRS is gain phase inversion, low cut, phantom power, and PAD.

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple, but the downside is, the manual does not exist in French, nothing to say more is pathetic for a company that seems serious to neglect these Francophone clients, for a few pages!
for the rest, this is a flawless.

SOUND QUALITY

absolutely transparent, micro like lines.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 month, I chose one for the price of 2 and 3 flexibilities the possibility of used later digitally.
I use the digital output of my console, preamp lamps Bluetube Presonus.
I also have two model PR8E the lowest game.
