CharterOak To Releases New Mic Pre, The MPA-1
CharterOak will release the next in its line of preamps and signal processors, the MPA-1 microphone preamplifier, next month at Musikmesse in Frankfurt.
The CharterOak MPA-1 is a solid-state, dual channel microphone preamplifier said to employ the highest quality components in a design that provides high headroom for years of trouble-free use.
The MPA-1’s transformerless input circuitry and transformer-balanced output will give the engineer the best of both worlds — with the input and output gain controls, the engineer can control the signal from clean and transparent, to pleasant coloration added by the MPA-1’s output stage and Cinemag output transformer.
The MPA-1 is also fitted with constantly variable high pass and low pass filters that encompass the entire bandwidth of the device, a -6dB pad, +48VDC phantom power, and phase reverse, giving the engineer further control of the signal and flexibility.
