Now with 96k sampling rate*, the DigiMAX is the newest member in the award winning
family of Presonus mic preamp’s. Combine eight channels of pristine mic preamplification
with 24 simultaneous digital and analog outputs, and the DigiMAX 96k seamlessly fits
into any digital recording situation. The DigiMAX 96k is the perfect front-end for DAW’s as
well as adding mic pre’s to digital mixers and sound cards.
A MIC PRE WITH HERITAGE
We started with the same design as the MP20, M80 and VXP: Class A Discrete Input Buffers
followed by a dual-servo gain stage giving you 60db of preamp gain with 52db of headroom. The
DigiMAX 96k is electronically balanced and features phase reverse on the first two channels, as
well as a 20dB pad and selectable 48v phantom power on each channel. A unique feature is EQ
Enhance? which contours the EQ curve -4dB centered at 1k from 250Hz to 5kHz. This is especially
helpful on drum overheads and other sources to bring out definition and notch out problem frequencies.
THE COMPRESSOR TRAPPED IN THE BODY OF A LIMITER
What makes a limiter musical? Typically, most limiters use peak detection which actually clips the
signal and can produce nasty artifacts. RMS detection, though commonly used with most compressors,
has the drawback of not being fast enough to catch extremely fast transients. The DigiMAX 96k uses
both RMS and Peak detection to give you the best of both worlds. The DigiMAX 96k uses an RMS style
compressor with a high ratio while the peak portion is used only to protect the input of the A/D converter
from clipping. The end result? Fast, musical, natural and able to catch anything you throw at it.
CONNECTIVITY FOR DAYS
The DigiMAX 96k features more I/O options than any mic pre on the planet! 8 XLR Mic Inputs + 2 1/4″
Instrument Inputs. The outputs consist of 8 balanced TRS analog outputs plus a 24 bit ADAT? lightpipe
output AND (4) stereo RCA SPDIF Digital Ouputs (Unit ships in AES/EBU mode, breakout cable not included).
And here’s the best part… They all work simultaneously! The Ultimate Live Recording Preamp! Use the
ADAT? Lightpipe Outputs to feed your recorders digital inputs while you send an identical signal to a FOH
Console via the TRS Analog Outputs. Bye, bye latency! Use the TRS analog outputs to monitor tracks while
you send the Lightpipe to your soundcard or standalone computer interfaces like MOTU 2408 and Digi001.
Mixer Beefer-Upper! Add high gain/low noise quality micpre’s to your digital console using either Lightpipe,
AES/EBU, SPDIF, or analog TRS outputs.

* Over AES/EBU or S/PDIF digital output cables ONLY.

The PRE-73 Mk2 pre-amp and the FC3 condenser microphone in one bundle. The bundle also includes Golden Age P1 Pop Filter, Proel RSM180 mic stand and Proel CHL250 5m cable.

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

    Input/Output
        2 balanced combo mic/unbalanced instrument inputs
        2 balanced XLR main (L/R) line outputs
        2 unbalanced ¼” main (L/R) line outputs

    Physical
        Compact 1/2U chassis
        External 12 VDC, 1A power supply

• Road proof housing • High quality components • Professional balanced XLR outputs • Level control The ASC-202 converts consumer level stereo RCA signals to balanced XLR professional line level, and back. One side of the unit, has two XLR inputs and stereo RCA outputs. The other side has stereo RCA inputs and two XLR outputs. Each side has stereo level controls. A possible application of the SC-13 is to use it as a level control in balanced audio lines. The DAP Pro Audio Solutions are a complete line-up of audio tools for the professional musician or audio engineer. It is a series of audio modifying tools like mini-mixers, pre-amps and converters available in active or passive models. All audio solutions are designed to meet the highest stage and audio demands and feature a metal road proof housing with rubber feet and easy accessible controls. The units also have a small footprint which make them ideal to be used and placed in any environment where space is critical.

This premium tube mic/line preamp features an integrated limiter for studio, live and hard disk recording applications. It features a carefully-selected 12AX7 vacuum tube with Behringer's UTC technology for exceptional warmth and lowest noise. Using the MIC100 is a great way to eliminate the "dull" sound of standard digital recorders & sound cards. Also, it perfectly complements studio-grade condenser mics. When used as a high-end DI-box, it ensures outstanding signal integrity. Features also include a phase reverse switch, +48 V phantom power, a 20 dB pad, and balanced I/O. The heart of the Tube Untragain is an extremely low-noise microphone preamp circuitry that uses discrete components and produces a highly trans-parent sound. In combination with Behringer's tube technology, the operational amplifiers 4580 and a sophisticated circuit topology, the Tube Untragain yields excellent noise and distortion properties. The innovative UTC circuitry that has been developed by our engineering team offers an abundance of sound-shaping possibilities. Absolute musicality was Behringer's major goal when we designed the Tube Untragain. The result is a device that, thanks to our tube circuitry, lends an incredible punch to percussion instruments. On the other hand, instruments that are rich in upper harmonics will receive more transparency. The sound will be warm, detailed and brilliant.
