SE launch DM1 Dynamite in-line preamp at AES (Video)

Launched alongside the new SE7 pencil mics is the DM1 Dynamite which promises to help you get the most out of your existing passive ribbon and dynamic microphones.

With XLRs at each end, the DM1 simply connects between your mic and preamp, and uses your preamp's phantom power to provide an extra 28dB of gain, demanding less gain from your preamp and incurring lower noise — a particular problem when using vintage or low-output mics with budget preamps and interfaces, or indeed when driving longer cable runs. The DM1 is priced at $99.
