About the ART TubeMP USB Microphone Preamp
The Tube MP Project Series is a professional quality audio interface that lets you connect microphone, instrument, and line level signals to audio inputs to digital audio workstations as well as standard analog devices. We took our legendary Tube MP series and updated every aspect of the design, inside and out, while still maintaining a compact, reliable, cost effective product, and added a USB output.
ART TubeMP USB Microphone Preamp Reviews
I have used many gadgets on stage and recording, and this tiny fellow is a very special item among my secret weapons. I was looking for a USB interface and just picked this up by chance -and the low price- and got shocked after I set it up and played through. Real transparent sounding. Easy to to use. Wide range of possibilities. I recorded and played mics (mostly dynamic SM58's), bass guitar (both electric and acoustic with XLR output), guitars (semi acoustic, semi classic, miced and electric) and it necer went wrong. On recording situations the mono channel caused some problems I must say. Wish it was stereo or wish I had two of them I said a many times; but on live situations this lovely piece is unbeatable -again stereo effects are lost, but no probs!-. Playing a cheap Cort bass through an old Sonakord amp, this device lets you produce sounds as if you are playing a 68 Fender. Really unbeliavable. The tube warms up quickly and keeps stable sounding for long hours of gigs. I just don't turn off the device on breaks to preserve the lamb (tube) from wearing down due to temperature change and strongly reccomend you to so. And to keep the unit going for a longer life, I pay extra attention in not moving it (de-cabling and packing) before it cools down. I switch it off, ask for a drink and wait at least half an hour before touching it. Maybe I am too obsessive or maybe I like drinking a lot :)))So short in short: perfect in live playing whether with or without an amp; more than "not bad" on recording. Don't let the price or brand mistake you. Get one. Get used to controlling the switches. You are in heaven. The sound improvement with this investment can only be achieved with extra $$$ investment to instruments and amps. Saves life.
