500 Mic Pre one


The 500 MicPre one is a Mic / Line Preamp module, with custom transformers on both input and output.

It has a huge gain range from -10 dB to 60 dB.
The separate Hi-Z input on the front panel allows you to directly plug-in a guitar or keyboard, and / or use this unit as a DI-box.
Phantom Power and Phase Reverse switch are pretty standard on most Preamps, but this unit also has a 30 to 300 Hz sweepable hi-pass filter.
