phenix! phenix!
Published on 09/03/07 at 08:45
Pr-amp lamp.
Between 1 and XLR and jack in the same
Between gain and output volume adjustable.
48v power supply.
+ 20dB PAD.
Phase inverter.

On the original lamp, or people gourent rptent or what they said without vrifier, or is the lottery, and we are not taught the same log.
Personally, my lamp is an original stamp 12AX7A CHINA, not Sovtek (Still, this is trs loupiote correct).

UTILIZATION

I bought it in the IDE to use it as a lamp Live ID, and also to spend my Triton synth, electric instruments possibly before sending in my a sound card for recording.
For microphones, I have a dj strip Mindprint, but it is possible that I use it to a.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is played correctly, yes, has no transparency, precision and clarity of my Mindprint transistor (normal) but it's not too bad.

I think it brings a prampli lgre coloration, in the sense that a "softening" the sound or a soft cot provides a sound, if you follow me ...
For instance, when I spend my Triton the inside, the sounds sound less synthetic, are a little less hard in veloutun senior mdiums and treble, without being too colorful, just over .
This is especially true when you change the lamp, with an Electro Harmonix or JJ Tesla 12AX7 (GOLD preferences) for example.

Changing the lamp brings a little more true, especially with the Electro Harmonix, the sound seems more clear and open, while keeping the original CHARACTERISTICS Art Tube, namely a sound a bit mellow.
I never tried to play with the saturation of the camera, making no electric guitar.

Also note that the prampli has a good signal / noise, I did not identify any problem of breath or parasite teacher, be it with an instrument or a microphone (and scne studio).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 or 4 months, not every day either.

O the price I got it (39 euros in Germany), one can not blame him much.
It pramplifie source, instrument or microphone properly, without making any significant blows.
This can even be INTERESTED in a electric instrument, it will make it a little less dull or flat, because the Tube MP offers a small grain smooth sound.

As prampli (if you do not make at least 100 euros), or as DI lamp, trs gear will do the trick, the cheaper the marchmais not the worst I think.
Better than many pramplis table mix low-end (style Behringer, Phonic or Yamaha).

It has a place in my home studio and Live.
