Microphone Preamp
with professional specs
Tape recorders have been obsolete for ages now, replaced with laptops fitted with a good-quality ‘USB sound card’. Now while a PC’s ‘line’ input generally offers acceptable characteristics, ‘mic’ inputs typically have only mediocre noise and distortion levels. Above all, they offer only a mono signal and are not suitable for connecting professional microphones with a balanced output, which often also require 48-V “phantom” powering. Here I’m suggesting a preamplifier that gets around these two shortcomings and is bound to please those who own ‘top range’ sound cards.
