looking for a good 8ch pre

[cliepe12]

I know about the digimax LT, but I dont need the light pipe cause I have a few DA 88s to take care of the converter end of things, I just need a good 8 channel Mic Pre. Hopefully around $500.

Good, 8 channels and $500 really won't exist together whent alking about mic pre's.

for tht short money i'd suggest a used Mackie console with direct outs, that's about a sgood as you'll get IMHO.

i think one might be lucky to find a used presonus digimaxLT... otherwise i agree.

(though i dislike mackie's and prefer soundcraft's preamps.)
