Hi Raimund,
a few days ago I posted a comparative file for IrigPre Vs. Art Phantom 2 Pr=
o Power 48v, both fed the AT3032. Below are the links to the results (swf a=
nd wave files) which, however, if not equal, seem to be a bit in favor of t=
he IRigPre. I used a Sony M10 with IRigPre on Line IN and ArtPhantom2Pro on=
Mic IN, matched direcly during recording, no in post production.
On this practical test it seems the IrigPre perfoms not so bad.
Am I wrong in something, some connection or something else?
Thanks.
Regards.
Marco Pesente
