## Description

Ultra-Compact Microphone Modeling Preamp

Review: Fantastic Value - The Behringer Minimic MIC800 is a sweet little budget modeling preamp with loads of features. This device is capable of producing audio that is wildly different from each other which is great if you need to hone you're recordings to a certain style. My demand out of this device is minimal. I just need something to boost the signal of a Shure SM58S Vocal Microphone (with On Off Switch) and send the signal out into my M-Audio Delta 1010-LT PCI Digital Audio System (PC & Mac) . I had been fairly satisfied using an ART Tube MP Microphone Preamp for quite a while. The ART preamp has always introduced a slight buzz in the signal though; even after swapping tubes. It was bearable and hardly noticeable but I figured I should keep looking for a better solution. I also needed an excuse to expand my arsenal of cheap preamps. Then I found this little guy and was very impressed. Noise essentially vanished from my signal while retaining the ability to have a 'warm' quality. I was so impressed that I decided to make a video review. I can be heard throughout the video speaking through it. If you're not much for videos and just want the straight meat, below are my pro's and cons'. Pros: *Killer value. The Signal:Noise is some of the best I've heard at this price range *'Tube-like' setup allows for a warm sound - if desired *Compact design frees up work space. Cons: *Very light. I don't mind but some people may get bothered by having to hold the device with two hands to switch settings. *Only output is a 1/4". Not a huge deal but it'd be nice to not have to use adapters.
Review: This is a great little sounding unit for the money - This is a great little sounding unit for the money. The only issues I really had with it was a high noise floor that crept in on some recordings. But it sounded great running an NT1-A into it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent preamp.
*by G***R on November 24, 2013*

Excellent preamp. The MIC800 sounds great. It really improved the sensitivity of my Audio Technica mic. The V/U meter is a great addition. It's very useful to monitor the output channel and give you a good gauge of how close you need to be to your mic. The model presets are useful with significant differences in how you can tailor your sound. And it has phantom powered XLR input. I use the warm setting, which simulates a tube-based preamp. This unit does not have any tubes that need to be replaced, but the simulation circuit does a good job; and the unit runs nice and cool. There's plenty of headroom; I've got it set at 50% input/output and my Roland AC-40 amp (master volume) is set to only 20%, and it sounds great. I highly recommend this preamp.
