Features Superlative sound Studio quality mic preamp Total control - Input Gain, EQ contour, Output Gain, Overload indicator Multiple output connectors XLR/jack combo input Switchable 48 V DC Phantom Power for condenser Mics Compact, computer friendly package Needs no external power supply ARX is proud to introduce the e-pre - the ultimate microphone pre-amp for hard disk recording, designed by audio professionals, not computer engineers. The all-new e-pre is so much a part of your system that it fits right into a spare 5?" slot in your computer case! It's the perfect tool for all your day-to-day recording requirements. No equipment racks to plug in, no masses of cabling to connect - the e-pre is ready and waiting when you need it. The e-pre is a studio quality microphone pre-amp using the same internal components as high end mixing consoles, built into a compact, computer friendly package. It has controls for: Input Gain - fully variable from 10dB through to 60dB to suit all types of microphones, plus switchable 48 V Phantom Power to enable condenser microphones to deliver their best. A Contour control for EQ sweetening, providing fast, easy access to a whole range of useful EQ curves Output level control - fully variable to match the e-pre's output to the input of the sound card. From -10dB consumer cards through to +4dB for professional sound cards, the e-pre can handle it. Multiple output connectors match up with any kind of sound card, including mini jacks, standard jack, RCA (phono) plugs, and even a connector to link to the internal CD ROM audio input of your sound card (if fitted). We've even fitted a 12 VDC input connector on the rear to enable the e-pre to run from an external power supply if required (eg for use with notebook computers or stand-alone use).
Any way you look at it, the e-pre by ARX is the total professional microphone pre-amp for all your hard disk recording needs

The AD2022 is Avalon's fourth generation of fully discrete, symmetrical Pure Class A microphone preamplifiers. The dual mono AD2022 includes the original sonic capabilities and transparency of the M2, M22 and M5 preamplifiers plus several additional features, including selectable microphone source loading for optimized cable/mic matching, improved high-voltage Class A regulated power supplies, two high Z instrument inputs, variable-passive high pass filter, teflon/ silver wiring and doubled plated circuit boards for superior low level signal transfer. AD2022 FEATURES Symmetrical Pure Class A design, two channels Microphone and hi-Z instrument inputs Gain switched 4dB steps plus +/- 3dB fine output trim Selectable microphone input impedance matching Low noise -126dB EIN Ultra high quality, low-ratio, balanced input transformer Balanced, high-current Class A output to +36dB Large illuminated analog VU meters and twin peak LED's Regulated phantom power supply +48v Input polarity phase reverse High headroom +36dB input before overload Input -20dB pad for high level signals Sealed silver relays for all signal routing External AC 150w toroidal power chassis Fully discrete Class A regulated audio power supplies Deep, musical sound-stage, transparent amplification
MICROPHONE INPUT The AD2022 incorporates the most advanced high-performance microphone transformer available. Split low-ratio primary windings are carefully combined within a custom mu-metal core for extended smooth frequency response and very low distortion. Sealer silver relays are used for minimal signal invasion. The input signal selector, high pass filter, polarity-phase reverse, +48v power and the 20dB input attenuator all utilize local sealed relay operation. A variable passive high pass filter provides a minimum phase shift design while eliminating low frequency rumble, wind noise and mechanical vibration at sub sonic frequencies.
SYMMETRICAL PURE CLASS A DESIGN Two 100% discrete, high-voltage, symmetrical Pure Class A signal amplifiers are utilized per channel. The first operates in a cascaded-cascode FET configuration while the second stage amplifier is fully bipolar. The twin amplifiers share the total available gain requirement. This shared architecture increases the high level headroom capability, improves transient response and doubles the internal bandwidth of the ultra-high performance pure Class A signal amplifiers. OUTPUT and METERING High-current DC coupled, Class A discrete amplifiers are utilized for the output drive interface with +36dB capability into all known loads. Two large, high-quality analog VU meters indicate accurate signal readings while bi-color LED's offers peak indication at 0dB and +20dB.

| Highly versatile and portable, Sound Devices' MM-1 is a single-channel, portable microphone preamplifier with a powerful headphone monitoring function. Proven in mission-critical applications, the high-performance microphone preamplifier uses a transformer-balanced input and output with a bipolar ±15 volt power supply to produce low-noise, low-distortion gain at all switch positions. It features an "unclippable" dual-stage limiter and two-position high-pass filter. Flexible microphone powering provides phantom power at 48 volts or 12 volts and 12-volt T-power. It is powered from two-AA batteries or external 5-18 VDC.
The MM-1 is at home in high-definition television production, corporate/industrial environments, radio/television announce booths, and music production. Its headphone monitor is an advantage in applications where communications channels or mix-minus feeds need to be monitored in headphones. The user can monitor both microphone audio and external audio sources in headphones with level control.
The MM-1 is designed to be durable. Its aluminum chassis, oversized end panels, machined knobs, and panel mounted connectors assure reliable mechanical operation.

PreSonusʼ popular Class A XMAX preamps are widely lauded for their clarity and transparency. Our tube preamps are beloved for their warm, smooth sound. With the Blue Tube DP V2 dual-path mic/instrument preamp, you get both types of high-quality sound in one unit.
Now weʼve improved on the classic unit with the BlueTube DP V2. The solid-state path now feeds PreSonusʼ top-of-the-line Class A XMAX™ mic preamplifier with 80 dB of variable gain—an upgrade from the original BlueTube DPʼs solid-state stage.
You still get all the secondary features you expect in a professional-grade preamp: 48V phantom power, an 80 Hz high-pass filter, -20 dB pad to control hot input signals, and a polarity-reverse switch. Each channel has an illuminated VU meter so you can visually monitor your input levels.
A Tube Drive control provides a wide range of sounds: when itʼs clicked off, youʼre using the solid-state preamp for quiet, transparent amplification; when itʼs engaged, your signals flow through the tube preamp, and you can achieve anything from gentle warmth to edgy distortion.
2 input channels, each with:
High-headroom Class A XMAX™ mic preamplifier with 80 dB gain range
12AX7 vacuum tube gain stage
Tube Drive tube-saturation control
48V phantom power
80 Hz high-pass filter
-20 dB pad to reduce hot input levels
Polarity-reverse switch
Illuminated analog VU input-level meter
