a metronome test of IRigPre Hacked version Vs. IRigPre with adapter cable.
Recorder Sony M10, line IN, max gain either for M10 and IRig Pre, microphon=
e AT 3032. Low cut filter off.
As we can see from the image on Soundcloud, second five bars (adapter cable=
 version) are affected by an orizontal bar at about 16 KHz. Also, there are=
 +2db for the adapter cable version, but this may be due to differences bet=
ween an IRigPre and another, so independently by the hack.

ver, I'm not a technical man and am not sure this is correct; BUT, it does =
work well. I put the volume wheel of my LS-10 on 10 and set on LOW setting.=
 Like this you need only use the gain control on the iRigPre. Be careful to=
 reduce gain on iRigPre to zero before turning on, or connecting to Olympus=
