Overview
Musicians and audio professionals looking for a quality microphone preamp with compression should check out the ART Tube MP/CU, a single-channel tube preamp with a switchable optical compressor, all housed in a rugged desktop enclosure. Used as a microphone/line preamp or as a DI (direct) box, the unit is designed to work seamlessly with any recording, live sound, or electronic instrument setup.
The preamp's active balanced solid-state input delivers extremely low noise and good common-mode rejection. The Hi-Z input prevents you from loading connected devices, so it's perfect for DI or line-level applications. The preamp's second-stage 12AX7a tube runs on a regulated DC voltage providing an additional 20 dB of gain. The compression circuit features a VCA-less design and utilizes optical electronics coupled with a 12AX7a vacuum tube gain stage.
