USBPre compatability
« on: March 18, 2005, 11:34:59 AM »
Just for the record.  USBPre units from Sound Devices ARE NOT compatable with Studio Projects c-4 mics.  I just got call back from SD today and that is what their tech told me after inspecting my pre and mics.  The SP c-1's work fine however.

I do think taping is the reality of the business..it is also an impetus for artists to create studio CDs that are ART, not just another recording...    Fareed Haque  2-4-2005

It has to do with the capacitance of the pre and the capacitance of the mics.  This is the first pair of mics they have ever had a usbpre conflict with.  I think they would work with an outboard phantom unit.  They are supposed to send me the technical version in an e-mail and I will post it if they do.  I assume the c-4s wouldn't work with any SD pre as themp-2 and mixpre have this same problem with quite a few mics.  Not sure what I'm going to do... lug around LD's for aud recordings, buy an outboard phantom unit, or go back to a ua-5/jb3 setup.
