A tube preamp that adds richness and protects your signal chain.
The Tube MP Studio V3 microphone preamp brings coveted tube warmth to your recordings while keeping noise low. Designed for mics, instruments and line-level sources, this versatile preamp uses Variable Valve Voicing technology to let you shape your tone on the fly. The Tube MP V3 also uses Output Protection Limiting to guard your equipment from clipping and overloads.
Dial In Vintage Tube Warmth
At the heart of the Tube MP V3 is a hand-selected 12AX7A tube that provides up to 70dB of silky, smooth gain. The Variable Valve Voicing knob lets you sweep through different voicings to customize your tone. Boost mids for added punch on vocals, scoop mids for an open, airy acoustic guitar sound or tighten up the lows when recording bass. Whether you want pristine cleans or saturated overdrive, Variable Valve Voicing puts tube tone right at your fingertips.
Protect Your Gear From Harmful Signal Spikes
With its OPL technology, the Tube MP V3 safeguards the rest of your equipment from clipping, overloads and other artifacts that degrade your sound quality. Route your preamp signal through the Tube MP V3 and OPL will catch and tame any spikes before they reach your interface, mixer or monitors. You get optimized levels and headroom along with the peace of mind that comes from not having to worry about blown tweeters or damaged components.
Versatile I/O for Any Source
The Tube MP V3 works great with mics, instruments and line-level sources. Use it to add sheen to vocals and acoustic guitars with the XLR input. Plug in your electric guitar or bass to the 1/4" input and harness the power of real tube overdrive. You also get balanced XLR and 1/4" outputs to connect to any destination. Other features like 48V phantom power, phase reverse and variable input/output gain provide flexibility. The Tube MP V3 brings authentic tube tone to studios and stages.
