Natural tube warmth for any mics or instruments.
Add
warm, vintage tone to any pair of mics or instruments with the MicTube
Duo preamplifier. Ideal for any recording or live setup, the MicTube Duo
features an easy-to-use control layout and one of the most classic
sounding, lowest-noise vacuum tubes: the legendary 12AX7. Aside from the
tube, the MicTube Duo features a minimized circuit path, so it
preserves the essence of the signal coming from the microphone
faithfully.
The MicTube raises the level of any mic up to line
level, adding as much or as little of the tube’s signature sound as you
like. You’ll find a -20 dB pad switch for mics with hotter outputs or
louder sound sources. Phase reverse switches help you optimize multi-mic
setups, and 80 Hz high-pass filters help cut bass, handling, and wind
noise. And of course, the MicTube Duo provides +48 volt phantom power
for condenser microphones.
In additional to standard 3-pin XLR
jacks for microphones, the MicTube Duo also gives you 1/4",
high-impedance DI jacks for plugging in guitars and basses. Separate
Gain and Drive (“vintage”) controls allow you to dial in the perfect
blend of level and tone, and a LED meter trees are perfect for keeping
an eye on levels. Professional XLR and 1/4" outputs complete the
professional package.
