Default Re: do you use pre amps with your mbox ?

As Albee said other pre amps than your Mbox's can be used to "flavor" your sound. The Mbox lets you select XLR, line, or instrument. Generally a pre amp will use a 1/4" cable into the Mbox, which would then be set to "line". A word of warning, a pre amp could overload the instrument level setting.

I found that the Mbox pre's are almost too clean for my tastes, which also means that they are very good pre amps. Lately I've been using an old Scully pre into the Mbox for vocals, and my SWR750 as my pre for bass.
