Important Security Information Lightning: Before thunderstorms or other severe weather, disconnect the machine from wall power (but to avoid life threatening lightning strikes, not during a storm). Similarly, before any severe weather, dis- connect ALL the power connections of other machines and antenna and phone/internet cables which may be interconnected so that no light- ning damage or overload results from such secondary connections. Air Circulation: Chassis openings offer ventilation and

Introduction When recording acoustic instruments or vocals, using a microphone is inevitable. The actual output level of a microphone is very low and therefore has to be boosted to studio or line level (0 dB) with a pream- plifier. Sometimes signals have to be boosted by a factor of 2000 or more. As a consequence, the resulting sound quality provided by the preamp is of paramount importance, so a good microphone preamp that does not overdrive is the definitive requirement in order to reco

Rear Panel/Connections XL R Sockets, Channel S plit XLR Sockets Connect your microphone to the electronically balanced XLR input. The outputs of the Preference Mic Pre are electronically balanced, too. You can use both XLR output sockets simultaneously. XLR pin wiring: Pin 1 = ground Pin 2 = hot (+) Pin 3 = cold (-) The illustration shows the correct pin wiring of the balanced XLR sockets if an unbalanced wiring is required.

Control Elements Mic G ain, About L ev eling Mic Gain With the Mic Gain control you can regulate the preamplification of the microphone signal. It ranges from +14 dB to +72 dB. The input stage can handle input levels of up to 18 dB. The value set with the Mic Gain con- trol defines the output level equally for both Output 1 and Output 2. When you set the Mic Gain you have to co

Control Elements 48 V Phantom P o w er Supply , P ad 48 V Phantom Power Supply The Preference Mic Pre provides 48 volt phantom power for micro- phones requiring external current (generally condenser microphones). Such microphones are dependent upon a clean, consistent and noise-free power supply for optimal operation and audio quality. The Preference Mic Pre continuously delivers precisely 48 V and a maxi- mum current of 14 mA, which will power all microphones. IMPORTANT: All microphones wi

Control Elements Phase R ev erse, High P ass Filter Phase Reverse With the phase reverse button you invert the polarity of the micro- phone signal. When not pressed (button is not illuminated) the polar- ity is in phase. After pushing the button (button is illuminated) the polarity is inverted. The phase reverse feature comes in very handy if you have to switch the polarity of the XLR input according to the polarity of the micro- phone or the microphone cable. The pin wiring of the XLR socket

Technology SS M 2019, S er v o Driv e SSM 2019 The Preference Mic Pre is suitable for all common dynamic and con- denser microphones. It works along the principles of an instrumenta- tion amplifier which is a technology that is also used in measurement and medical equipment due to its high common mode rejection of stray pick-ups. It is based on the semiconductor SSM 2019 which sounds more balanced than available alternatives. Low noise and distortion values as well as a broad bandwidth and

Technology Capacitors,Outputs, Channel S plit Foil And Styroflex Capacitors Only the best MKP and styroflex capacitors are used in the various cir- cuits. They sound more open and dynamic in contrast to the conven- tional ceramic capacitors. Outputs Both output stages are electronically balanced and can be used inde- pendently. They are capable of driving very long cables (up to a few hundred yards, depending on the capacity of the cables and the input stages on the other end). The maximum out
