What does the FetHead Filter In-line Microphone Preamp do?

The FetHead Filter provides a clean 27dB gain boost for your microphone signal, making low-output mics sound stronger and clearer. It also includes a built-in 6dB/octave high-pass filter to reduce unwanted low-frequency rumble, handling noise, or proximity effect, ensuring a cleaner recording or live sound.

Which microphones benefit most from the FetHead Filter?

This mic booster is ideal for passive dynamic and ribbon microphones, which often have lower output levels. By adding 27dB of clean gain, the FetHead Filter helps these microphones achieve a stronger signal-to-noise ratio, improving clarity and detail when connected to your mixer or audio interface.

How does the FetHead Filter receive power?

The FetHead Filter operates solely on 48V phantom power, which it draws directly from your mixer, audio interface, or preamp. It's important to note that while it uses phantom power, it does not pass that phantom power through to your microphone, making it safe for ribbon mics.

When should I use the high-pass filter feature on the FetHead Filter?

The integrated 6dB/octave high-pass filter is useful for cleaning up your audio by removing unwanted low-end frequencies. Engage it to reduce stage rumble, vibrations from mic stands, or excessive bass buildup from the proximity effect when a vocalist or instrument is very close to the microphone.

Who is the FetHead Filter designed for?

The FetHead Filter is perfect for anyone looking to improve the performance of their low-output dynamic or ribbon microphones. Whether you're a podcaster, live sound engineer, or home studio enthusiast, it helps achieve a robust, clear signal with less noise, especially in challenging acoustic environments.
