Used my new 9200 for the first time last night after using the 9000 for my last 5 years of taping. Very happy with the results. In particular, I like the gain knob much better than the switch on the 9000. It only happened to me once, but it is possible to switch the gain on the 9000 the wrong way during recording, seems like it would be almost impossible with the 9200. Anyone else ever use both of these pres and have any observations/input?
A couple questions-
Are the outputs on the two pres the same? As in, if I have both of them at 100% with +10db gain, will the output be the same given that the mics are of equal sensitivity?
Anyone ever run either of these into a mic in on the Tascam Dr-2d? I ask because the tascam has 4ch capability, but one input is mic in. Since Mic in can't take as hot a signal I assume less gain would be in order for that input. I have a UBB batt box on the way, would it be better to run that into the Mic in instead of the second pre?
