Customer Feedback

Press Quotes:

“The DMP3 is shockingly transparent for a preamp with a $250 list price.”
- Jazz Times

“One of the quietest preamps available anywhere, regardless of price. For comparison’s sake, this tiny difference [between original source and mic pre output] is far less than the degradation I’ve heard in the most expensive world-class A/D converters.”
- Pro Audio Review

Analog Warmth for Digital Recording
The DMP3 is one of our secret weapons here at Ear 2 Track Studio. As well as a being a pristine microphone preamp, this box transforms a direct bass guitar input into a perfectly balanced line signal with that round and warm quality that can be heard and felt in the mix. Highly recommended for all types of studio applications where direct instruments and microphones need high-precision signal conditioning for digital recordings. Also great live as a direct box. You don't need to spend mega-bucks to get sound quality that your studio clients will rave about.

Main Features

Based on the M-Audio preamp technology that won Pro Audio Review’s highest accolades, the DMP3’s amazing 20Hz to 100kHz frequency response makes it ideal for today’s 96k recording work. You also get exceptional dynamic range to capture all the nuances of your music—not to mention an unbelievable 66dB of gain. And the classic VU meters are just one indication of the soul you’ll find in the DMP3’s sound. Whether you use it live or in the studio, the DMP3 2-channel microphone/instrument preamp is a piece of gear destined to be integral in defining your sound. Even with the best instruments, microphones and recording gear, the quality of your recordings depends greatly on your preamps. While the preamp circuits built into today’s mixers are adequate, they are no substitute for dedicated preamps.

2 independent preamp channels, each featuring:

  • mic input (balanced XLR)
  • high impedance instrument inputs (1/4”)
  • high and low gain range controls for up to 66dB of gain
  • VU meter and clip LED to aid in optimizing levels
  • low-cut filters for removing unwanted rumble and hum
  • gain control
  • phase reverse switch
  • professional line output (balanced/unbalanced 1/4” TRS)
  • +48V phantom power
