Re: CS 48 mic pres?
Hi Brad,
I meant SC 48 mic pre. I edited the original post to make this clearer. Sheldon |

Re: CS 48 mic pres?
Just to clarify, the Digidesign PRE is 3 db steps. No digital control.

Re: CS 48 mic pres?
Thanks Sheldon and Gil, in case you are willing to share some additional info, what makes a mic pre different in the situation where three consoles share a mic and might all have +48 turned on?

Re: CS 48 mic pres?
There are really two issues that come into play...
In a live setting it's not uncommon to split a mic 2, 3 or even 4 ways, all done passively (with wiring and sometimes transformers). In this case the mic is wired in parallel to each console, so the mic pre's input impedance needs to be high enough that this passive split doesn't cause significant signal loss, but not so high that it's susceptible to noise. In the studio the mic is usually only connected to one pre. Re +48V: on a live gig it's possible to have multiple consoles all feeding phantom power through the passive split (unless transformers are used). In this case, there must be sufficient protection to ensure the multiple +48 V sources don't damage the mic pre. This is done with a simple diode protection scheme. Sheldon |
