Can this be done with this unit? I always took advantage of the pre>ADC functions and I cannot think of a way to bypass the pre-amp section. Jumpers?
i have run m148>v3 as others DO and was pretty damn happy, but after hearing just the pre of the v3 lik i am running(*except into a 722) i can honestly say, the AD in the v3 could be better, but if thats your goal, i think pre>v3 would be great
i still think the pre cannot be bypassed but the grace pre adds a nice touch still IMO, and like i said, i was happy w/ the 148>v3 the one time i ran it, others run this combo exclusively
try it out and see how ya like it
if i didnt get a 722 awhile back, i prolly wouldve bought a sax to run into the v3 and stayed 16-bit so.......
what pre do you want to run in front? and FWIW, i used no pad in front of it, the 148 runs at 20db, so i used minimal gain(about 15db) on the v3 to get perfect levels
