The Grace Design M201 Microphone Preamplifier delivers unmatched audio performance, with massive headroom, ultra-wide bandwidth and a very open, musical character. The signal path has been hot-rodded to be fully balanced from start to finish, resulting in a wider dynamic range, while new high-current output drivers enable even longer cable runs without signal loss. The m201 translates a sonic picture of astonishing clarity and detail, which serves to capture the essential character of the music being recorded.
The Grace Design M 201 includes the newly designed M+S (mid side) decoder circuitry with a built-in width control. The front panel width control is wired with a precision 12 position rotary switch which provides a range from 100% mid (mono) to 30% mid / 70% side. The ultra-precision summing and difference amplifiers feed a set of dedicated outputs, which allows simultaneous recording of discrete mid+side signals as well as the stereo matrix.
The Grace Design M-201 panel mounted HI-Z inputs are designed to accommodate a wide variety of high impedance input sources, making the m201 an excellent choice as a DI box which will flawlessly preserve the sound of any plugged-in instrument. Whatever the application, the remarkable sonic performance and functionality of the new m201 will help you make the finest recordings of your career.
