Microphone
pre amplifiers for studio & home recording
No
matter how good the microphone, without a good
mic pre amplifier you won't get the best from
you mic. Good mic pre's don't need to cost
a fortune but you tend to get what you pay for
- save up and get a good one!
These
days it's possible to spend thousands on a high
end mic pre but there are many high quality mic
pre amplifiers available at sensible money.
Some come as single mic units and there are a
number of multiple mic pre's out there too.
Why
bother with a good mic pre? Well, if you're
using a basic mixer the quality of the on board
mic pre is usualy fairly limited and let's your
recording down. Even people working in high
end recording studios take along a range of mic
pre's to give increased options.
If
possible, make the most of your microphone and
mic pre combination by using good quality cables
and try to go direct to your work station or recorder.
Keeping the chain as short as possible bypassing
your mixer will improve the performance.
