| The dbx 786 gives you two channels of precise pre-amplification without extra noise, interference or worries. The signal path consists of a transformer-coupled, discrete-design premium input stage, utilising the dbx M8 mic pre module. The "Spectrum" technology is a unique, variable high-frequency equalization circuit that enhances the high frequency spectral content of the signal. The "Detail" control varies the amount of high frequency shelving boost at the frequency determined by the Spectrum control circuit. |

| The Telefunken is a vintage Valve Preamp originally built in the late 1940s. The V72 was actually modelled on the V41 (developed in 1928). It was originally developed for German Radio stations but was later taken up by most of the European Recording Companies like EMI, Decca/Telefunken. The V72 is a tube based preamp offering fixed gain stages, and is perfect for bringing the analogue back to digital sounds. |

| Studer engineers have been working with vacuum tubes since the company's beginnings nearly 60 years ago. As a result Studer GmbH has an excellent knowledge of how to achieve the "tube sound". Studer has been able to create the "warmth", and other unique features of tube sound, in the D19 MicVALVE. This system is a unique 2-channel mic/line preamp with a "Valve Dignifier" tube stage. The tube sound circuitry can be switched into the signal path and offers control over a number of individual tube characteristics. The MicValve of the Studer D19-family was presented to the public in 1996, the same year Willi Studer passed away. |

| The V72 was developed at the NWDR (North West German Radio) between 1949 to 1953, as a microphone and main studio amplifier. It was modeled on the basis of the V41 (developed in 1928 by Telefunken), but with modern parts like the Noval glass tubes and in a smaller housing known as the "Danner" cassette module. The V72 is a self-contained amplifier with a fixed gain. It was used as a mic amp up to 1955 in German radio stations and then later by most of the European Recording Companies like EMI, Decca/Telefunken etc. whose units were modified with a fixed gain of 40dB and a lower input impedance. The Sounds Incorporated re-issue is a later released version of the original V72, and is perfect for bringing digital sounds back to life! |

The V76 was designed for high gain (which the V72 couldn't provide) applications in radio and TV studios. The circuit of the gain selector works in a unique way, by combining variable input attenuation and variable feedback.

Combine eight active tube stages, low noise and the reliability of solid state electronics and you end up with the Drawmer 1960. The Drawmer 1960 is a classic two-channel low noise microphone pre-amplifier.

| The VT-2 mic pre's transparency is highly regarded. Any microphone and any sound are said to benefit from the improved clarity, definition, and lack of solid-state artifacts. The VT-2 recreates the sound of classic tube preamps of the 60s. |

| The magic behind the ViPRE, which stands for Variable Impedance Preamp, lies in its ability to modify the input impedance. As is the case with many Focusrite front-end devices, this feature opens up a much larger sonic window for each microphone in your arsenal. |

| The Legendary Helios Electronics Ltd Olympic mic-pre has achieved a renowned status through its use by the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, Led Zepplin and so on. The mic preamp is extremely open and uses an input transformer that is based on the highly desirable Lustraphone (Olympic Sound Studios) model. It has a unique '70s sonic footprint thanks to all its discrete component design (not a chip in sight!). |

| SLAM! stands for "Stereo Limiter And Mic pre". This is the pre-amp from the legendary two channel Limiter and Pre. It is a Class A Tube design with plenty of gain. The tube press gives a clean and clear sound with great results for both aggressive singers and, with enough gain, for soft singers or low output mics. |

| The Millennia STT-1 is clear and extremely pristine for critical and accurate representation of sound, but at the same time it can also deliver colour and thickness. This unit is based on Millennia's "Twin Topology" design. Not only can you switch the tubes in or out of the signal path, but you can also switch the transformer in or out, yielding richer sounds. |

The Neve VR console is known for its sound from countless hit records. The circuitry has lots of headroom and creates a much sought after soft and warm, yet crisp and very clean sound, for those of us that require clear perfection in the signal path. This is a household name and an industry classic.

| Even though the Neve 33114 modules are the broadcast version of the highly regarded 1081, the 33114 have functions that are comparable to the 1084. They deliver an incredibly fat and smooth sound. An important fact about analogue mic pres is that, for the most part, they only sound as good as their transformers. This is why the Neve sound is so recognisable - tight and punchy. |

The Pultec MB-1 was designed for use in radio and television broadcast, recording studios, P.A. systems and test lab environments. The Pre amp features a very minimal circuit design based on input and output transformers and tube gain stage. The MB-1 uses a fixed gain structure, meaning that resistors needed to be soldered into the circuit to change the preamp gain.

| Studer engineers have been working with vacuum tubes since the company's beginnings nearly 60 years ago. As a result Studer GmbH has an excellent knowledge of how to achieve the "tube sound". Studer has been able to create the "warmth", and other unique features of tube sound, in the D19 MicVALVE. This system is a unique 2-channel mic/line preamp with a "Valve Dignifier" tube stage. The tube sound circuitry can be switched into the signal path and offers control over a number of individual tube characteristics. The MicValve of the Studer D19-family was presented to the public in 1996, the same year Willi Studer passed away. |

| The Telefunken is a vintage Valve Preamp originally built in the late 1940s. The V72 was actually modelled on the V41 (developed in 1928). It was originally developed for German Radio stations but was later taken up by most of the European Recording Companies like EMI, Decca/Telefunken. The V72 is a tube based preamp offering fixed gain stages, and is perfect for bringing the analogue back to digital sounds. |

Many claim this to be the "Rolls-Royce" of tube mic preamps. The V76 was designed by the IRT and built from 1958 by TAB/Germany . The V76 was designed for high gain (which the V72 couldn't provide) applications in radio and TV studios. The circuit of the gain selector works in a unique way, by combining variable input attenuation and variable feedback.

The PA-1 Pentode Preamp is TL Audio's top of the range preamp. All microphones seem to produce a fuller, more open and vibrant sound. The PA-1 features a transformer-coupled mic input followed by a low noise, high-gain pentode valve. Two further triode valve stages are incorporated in each channel. TL Audio's usual high-drive solid-state output stage completes the signal chain. This is a warm, yet sparkly preamp.

| The tube-based technology inside this classic original unit creates a very distinct sound. The MEC-1A is all tube, based on the design of the MP 1A mic preamp. It delivers the warmth of quality vintage recordings, with unrivaled accuracy, purity and realism. Probably the heaviest use of tubes throughout all of Liquid Mix's emulations; the only section that doesn't use tubes is the power supply. |
