Hi,
I've checked to see if there's already a thread dealing with this but didn't find one.
I use a AKG C411 in live settings and plug it right into the PA but I'd like to find a preamp to use to have a little more control over volume/eq. I guess the AKG is technically a mic and not a pickup and so I've heard I need a mic preamp rather than a pickup preamp. I guess I'm not sure what the difference is but I've noticed that a lot of preamps don't have xlr inputs. Anyway, does anyone have a mic preamp recommendation?
I think the Schertler would probably be very good but I prefer to spend about $200.
Thanks for any advice!
