From Our Research Team:

Add Great Tube Sound to ANY Source!

Designed with the utmost attention to detail, the MP 1A preamp makes an excellent addition to any studio, with one of the smoothest, silkiest sounds you've ever heard!
This combined dual microphone preamplifier/DI amplifier contains two independent amplifiers for microphones or instruments. The microphone inputs are balanced providing switchable 48V phantom power and a switchable -20 dB pad. Gain is adjustable in 5 dB steps from +20 dB to +70 dB. The DI inputs are unbalanced with a gain ranging from +10 dB to +60 dB.

Providing that silky-warm sound that makes microphones - any microphone - sound like a million dollars, the amplifiers on the MP 1A are all tube (valve) based and the headers are fed DC-voltage to avoid hum. All transformers (except the main transformer) are enclosed in mu-metal cans. Input and output transformers come with a static-screen between primary and secondary wirings. Delivering quality construction, the microphone inputs and outputs are balanced, and fully floating.

Tim Maus
A refreshing -lack- of bells and whistles. The MP1A has that rich, classic tube sound that is hard to live without once you've heard it.

My Sales Engineer has always been great. I trust his input. He's been invaluable as a consultant and a big part of why I've worked with Sweetwater for so long. I've recommended scores of people to Sweetwater because of his service.
