Virtually Unlimited Bandwidth
The Fredenstein HD MicPre is built on a simple concept: with 96kHz and 192kHz sampling rates becoming increasingly common for tracking, recording studios are still using gear that cannot match the bandwidth of today's A/D converters. Enter the Fredenstein HD MicPre. For wider bandwidth sources like acoustic instruments, the HD Pre overcomes the limitations of conventional preamps with an entirely new approach to mic-level amplification. This 500 Series microphone preamp rocks a staggering frequency response of 12Hz–700,000Hz (+/-1dB). Yes, you read that right. The tech behind it is an innovative current amplification circuit that neutralizes limiting internal transistor capacitance. If you record classical or jazz, the HD MicPre is a godsend. Your tracks will bloom with life and air as your signal is treated to Fredenstein's fully discrete signal path and balanced Class A output stage. For modern high-definition recording, Sweetwater recommends the Fredenstein HD MicPre.

Unlimited audio horizons
Once you wrap your head around the Fredenstein HD MicPre's otherworldly frequency response, you'll notice it's a full-featured preamp from a conventional standpoint, with polarity reverse, pad, lo-Z mode, 48-volt phantom power, a highpass filter, and a front-panel DI jack. Slip Fredenstein's HD MicPre module into your 500 Series rack, and record without limitations.
