Micstasy is an 8-Channel hi-end mic/line preamp and AD-converter combining typical RME features with a number of previously unseen features. It can be used analog (Mic/Line In to Line Out) and digital (Mic/Line In to Digital Out), with both signal paths operating simultaneously. Special highlight: the device is fully remote-controllable via MIDI (also MIDI over MADI).

The Micstasy’s innovative concept allows for amplification and digitization of ALL analog signal sources. Be it high-level stage signals, typical studio signals, lower level and high-impedance instruments, or dynamic, condenser or ribbon microphones: Micstasy understands them all – in a way that is simply thrilling.

The signals amplified by the Micstasy are available at the analog outputs for passing them on, making an expensive splitter box on stage obsolete. All functions can be remote controlled via MIDI and MIDI over MADI, allowing the device to be placed near the microphones, ensuring highest sound quality. Adding the optional MADI Card results in even more options. The I64 MADI Card provides serial pass-through capability from one Micstasy to the next (up to 8). All up to 64 audio signals are then available at the last device on one single line.

• 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.

The PreSonus HP60 is the most flexible and advanced headphone amplifier system available for professional and project recording studios as well as live sound in-ear monitoring systems. Loaded with six independent,
loud and clear headphone amplifiers, the HP60 features dual stereo inputs as well as external input, for each
channel allowing you to mix between three stereo audio streams (mix A, mix B, and external input). Stereo output is also available on each channel to send line level headphone channel mixes to additional headphone amplifiers or monitor systems. Each channel features headphone level, mix control between A and B inputs, external input volume, mute and mono. The HP60 also features talkback via external XLR microphone input. Common set up of the HP60 in a recording session is to send the main control room mix to input A. Send the click track to input B. Send the each band member direct recording input to each channelʼs external input (more me). This will allow each band member to create a mix between the main mix, the click track and themselves. The HP60 is the ultimate headphone amplification system delivering loud and clear headphone mixes for real-world recording situations.

Features:
-Six independent ultra low noise, high output headphone amplifiers (150 mW per channel)
-Two sets of stereo inputs (A and B) with balanced TRS connectors
-Stereo external input point on each channel for "more me” with trim control
-Mix control between inputs A and B
-Talkback with external XLR microphone with control
-Direct stereo line output on each channel

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.
