The Metric Halo ULN-R Mic Pre Option for LIO-8 (channels 1-4). After purchasing the LIO-8 you may find yourself needing pres. Rather than forcing you to buy more gear (or sell your LIO to buy a ULN-8) Metric Halo give you the option to upgrade. They call this "Future Proof" and it's part of the design philosophy at Metric Halo. This also lets you build a system over time; buy a LIO-8 today to get outstanding conversion and processing. Add four channels of ULN-R mic pres later, and another four after that. Another benefit of having the ULN-R mic pres onboard is that you can take advantage of the LIO's flexible signal routing to use the Mic and Line inputs with the Sends to create pre-A/D convertor insert points.
The Metric Halo ULN-R Mic Pre possesses virtually every characteristic that is coveted in a Mic Preamp: exceptionally low noise at all gains, exceptionally high gain, excellent common mode and RFI rejection, incredibly flat frequency response, and ultra-low distortion. It simply increases the level of what you put into it without having to consider the nature of the source: Dynamic Mics, Phantom Powered Mics, Ribbon Mics, turntables, Instrument or line level signals are all handled with equal ease and quality.
