The MicPre 5.0

Signal Flow Diagram (PDF File 166KB)

The back of the MP5.0 includes XLR's for the Microphone Input and Preamp Output. The XLR pre out can be “transformer-balanced” or “active-balanced” depending on the switch setting on the front panel. When going for the absolute minimal signal path, the “Output Signal Path” (O.S.P.) switch will bypass all non-essential circuitry to the XLR pre out. See Signal flow Diagram

Balanced TRS jacks for the Insert Send and Insert Return can be used to connect an equalizer or compressor. The insert send can also be used as a Pre Out-B for zero-latency monitoring, and the insert return can be used as a Line Input to monitor the output of a DAW or multitrack. The MP5.0 even comes equipped with an Aux DC Out to power the Speck Model ASC equalizer.

The balanced TRS Left and Right Mix Outputs can be used anywhere a stereo signal is needed. A RJ45 Mix Link connector allows the mix section of the MP5.0 to be combined with any number of MP5.0's to form a fully integrated mix section.
