The RP-1 is a remote preamp designed for dynamic and ribbon microphones.
It has three main advantages. Firstly, it adds up to 28 dB of clean, low-noise gain, so its an ideal solution for low-output mics.
Secondly, it offers variable impedance so you can tailor the preamp response to your microphone for additional tonal flexibility.
Thirdly, it shortens the distance between the mic and preamp. This lets you minimize interference and signal loss by sending a balanced signal over a long cable run to your mixer or interface.
The Dual RP runs on phantom power but does not pass it, so its safe to use with delicate ribbon mics. It also features a switchable high-pass filter that cuts low frequencies to remove rumble and tighten bass.
