Topic: Pre-Amp's with Meter Readouts? other then the MiniMe and V3..

put a little power reactor in there and I could juice up the whole tapir section...
just looking to saze some money.........but prob will go oade to keep the warrenty...means I just have to wait a few more pay-days...

yeah, it might be worth it just for the warranty!!

sounds like yer more in look out for a a/d with levels

schwill, are you

:-D

but I say that because an a/d can change your levers, which will directly correspond with the recorder levels though optical/coax

PS don't listen to me, a drunken rant

i see what youre saying, its more optimization when ya have a seperate pre/ad.....when ya have an all-in-one box like the v3, you are adjusting a gain that determines BOTH the analog and the ad levels....

does that sound correct anyone???

but personally,i think the v3 does a might fine job of doing that, hence why i got one!!

yeah, the adc is after the preamp, For eaxample, you can't just read the mp-2 meters and decide what your levels will be on a jb3...

nope, i read somewhere how the v3 does what it actually does analog/ad "gain"(for lack of better word on the ad side), and it was quite interesting!!!

its neat how it shapes all of that jazz!!!

on the dmic-20... what could I do with it's out put?
I don't know what BNC means........

From webopedia.com :
Short for British Naval Connector or Bayonet Nut Connector or Bayonet Neill Concelman, a type of connector used with coaxial cables such as the RG-58 A/U cable used with the 10Base-2 Ethernet system. The basic BNC connector is a male type mounted at each end of a cable. This connector has a center pin connected to the center cable conductor and a metal tube connected to the outer cable shield. A rotating ring outside the tube locks the cable to any female connector.

My add:
These are 75 ohms. small, locking, and work for spdif quite well.

You could buy my ad500e, which has "meters" (a -12 and a +4(I think) light), and an optical out for your iriver or jb3.  Throw a PS-2 for phantom power and some line transformers in there and you're good to go!  Then you could add a better pre in there when your budget catches up.

Just a self-interested suggestion.  SOMEONE BUY MY APOGEE SO I CAN GET AN SBM!!
