I've got an ART Pro Channel that I really like - for both live work and recording. It's only a single channel but it has tube preamp, tube or optical compressor, and tube EQ. AMS has it for $300 right now. MF has it for $319 but you get a cheap Marshall condenser mic with it. You could probably get them to match the AMS price and still get the mic ;-) Jan On Tue, 07 Jun 2005 08:54 , Dave Phillips <dlphillips@xxxxxxxxxx> sent: >Greetings: > > I'd like to know what my fellow LAUyers recommend for a mic preamp for >use with the following gear: > > mics: > Shure SM58 > Yamaha MZ106s > > interfaces: > M-Audio Delta 66 > PDAudioCF PCMCIA digital input card > > The gear is used for desktop recording, so I'd like to keep the cost >low.
