Rane ML1
Mic/Line Preamplifier, 1RU

The Rane ML 1 mic/line preamplifier provides the answer when you just need a preamplified pair. Go from either dynamic, condenser or electret microphones to line-level with a minimum of noise, distortion, and hassle. At the same time the ML 1 can convert those mics, or a stereo line source, to a digital output of your choice: AES3, S/PDIF coaxial or optical.

The ML 1's rear panel provides 48 V switchable phantom power with an indicator LED. Each channel has Mic/Line input selection with gain trims between 18 dB and 66 dB. Input signal and output signal/overload LEDs help set levels to other equipment whether you are looking at the front or the back panel. Inputs and outputs let you choose between balanced XLR or Euroblock connectors. The Euroblocks accept 22 to 12 guage wire.

The ML 1 utilizes one of the finest ultra low noise amplifier designs available. Featuring a true differential input with high common-mode rejection, use of the ML 1 guarantees performance usually found only in mixing consoles costing thousands of times as much.

A security cover for the rear panel Gain and Mic / Line switches is included for those set-and-forget installations. The internal power supply operates almost anywhere in the world with the proper IEC-C5 cord.

Applications for the ML 1 include increasing inputs, digital recording, and the use of virtually any type of microphone.
