Speck Electronics MicPre 5.0

The "MicPre 5.0" is a complete single channel microphone preamp that offers features and flexibility for use in the most serious recording applications.

The signal path consists of a matched discrete transistor front-end, premium IC's, and transformer output stage. With the push of a button, the MP5.0 can change from an "Transformer-Balanced" output to a "Active-Balanced" output.

The compact 1/2 rack format of the MP5.0 can easily be rack mounted and combined with the Speck Model ASC equalizer to create a highly functional outboard channel strip.

The MicPre 5.0 also includes a mix section that makes it perfect for DAW's and remote recording.

Features:
Matched discrete transistor input and transformer output.
70 dB of preamp gain.
Precision stepped gain control with variable trim control.
Variable high pass filter.
Mix section can be "linked" with additional MP5.0's.
Transformer "and" active balanced outputs.
High resolution 10 segment LED VU meter.
All input, output, and insert connectors are balanced.
Can be combined with the Model ASC EQ to form a Channel Strip
