Hi Reuben, > having a battery doesn't mean a thing in regards to preamps, it means > it has an active rather than a passive pickup But isn't the difference between an active and a passive pickup, that the active one uses the electrical energy to run a preamp (or an EQ as well) --> "Active" as in "active signal modifying" ? But you're right when you said that the preamp of an active pickup isn't the same than an external preamp that amplifies up to a line-level for the mixer.
