Details

Controls: stepped gain (70dB in 5dB steps), switchable mic/line/hi-z, switchable +48V phantom, switchable phase, switchable 20dB pad

I/O: 4x XLR/TRS Neutrik combo mic/line inputs (rear), 4x 1/4" line or hi-z instrument inputs (front)

Notes: All-stainless-steel enclosure, outboard DC power supply. 20-segment LED meter per channel with +24dB peak indicator. Based on the Trident A-Range preamp circuit (same as used in Daking consoles and Mic Pre EQ, minus EQ/extra output stage). Price ($1,895) sourced from a Tape Op review and may be dated; listed as current per TransAudio Group's 'current products' manuals page, but no fresh 2025/2026 dealer price was confirmed - flagged as possibly stale pricing basis. Superseded/paralleled in the current line by the Cinemag-transformer Mic Pre 4T (separate SKU, listed separately per instructions).
