Slightly different feature set - check out the specs for the differences. To my ears, they're indistinguishable. If you like the MP2 sound but can't find one, a MixPre will work just as well and sound the same (I've used both).

thanks brian +t!
-
also, nearly the same as the shure fp24

Unless something's changed, it should be identical to the Shure FP24 - the Shure is (was) simply a re-branded MixPre.

schwill nice avi ;D that looks yummy!

thanks for that info., i didn't know that.
-
why is the Shure FP24 more expensive than the mix pre? i figured since it was rebranded it would be cheaper ???

the only thing different is that it takes 5-14V DC where the mixpre will take 5-18V

Good to know. Found someone selling that Shure pre, maybe I'll get lucky and be able to pick one up. ;)
Edit - Wow, looks exactly like an MP-2/MixPre except for the Shure logo. ;)

They wanted 450, but I've knocked it down a little. Emailing back and forth right now. ;D

Since both Sound Devices and Shure need to make profit off it, it makes sense to me that the FP24 costs more. Shure re-brands it to fill out their product line. Large customers probably are willing to pay more to deal with Shure than to have to start a new sales relationship with a smaller company (Sound Devices).

always with the logic this one
-
Welp, I got a Shure FP24 for $400. About $25 more than I wanted to spend but I couldn't find anyone else selling...

Now I just need to get my at933s unmodded. I'm spending way too much money. ;D
-
me too, on both of those points. The problem is SP ran out of the cheap $30 adapters, so I have to plunk down $60 each for the AT ones :-\
-
that sucks schwill, isnt SP going to get anymore?

They said samson was back ordered. I sent them an email asking why they had been taken completely off the site and that's what the dude said
-
gotta do what ya gotta do :)
-
I think I'd rather have the AT adapters to begin with. I wont be able to send them in for mods for about a month or so, though...
-
I just bought a pair of the AT8533's from AT parts and service department (thanx marc). They were $59 each. Hopefully I have them before next friday so I can mod em before the In Flames show.
