ART USB Dual Pre Project Series 2 Channel Preamp. The USB Dual Pre is a full-featured high quality dual portable preamplifier and computer interface packed into a compact rugged case.
ART have a rich heritage when it comes to high quality audio electronics - Their range of Pre-Amps, Portable Phantom Power devices and Audio Interfaces set a benchmark for the highest manufacturing standards, performance to cost and usability within their price bracket. The USB Dual Pre is an affordable 2-channel USB audio interface with a difference - A 3-way power supply system that allows for 9v battery, 12v DC adapter or USB connectivity for full functionality in the studio, field recording or for live sound engineers. When running off of the battery alone, you should get in excess of 50 hours of operation when phantom power is off. Battery life drops to around 20 hours (depending on microphone) when phantom powering from the battery alone (still enough time to get through a session).
It is designed to work over a wide variety of applications from remote field recording to desktop/studio tracking. Each of the two low noise input channels has up to 48 dB of clean gain with signal present and clip LED indicators. Inputs can be either XLR balanced or 1/4-inch TRS. Each of the 1/4-inch TRS outputs is buffered low impedance balanced
The USB Dual Pre is powered via the USB bus. An internal 9 Volt battery, or optional external 12V power supply (or any combination of USB, battery & power supply) can be used depending on application. When running powered by battery alone, you should expect in excess of 50 hours of operation with phantom power off. Battery life will drop to approximately 20 hours (depending on microphone) when phantom powering is engaged (still enough time to get through an average session).
The built-in low noise +48 Volt phantom power supply allows you to power up to 2 microphones as well as the preamplifier when running from any power sources including the USB bus
