Congratulations on your purchase of the ICON Pro Audio Hyper Drive; the perfect
way to increase the gain of your dynamic or ribbon microphones without the
colouration of a pre-amp. The gain is switchable between 23dB or 46dB.
Take a standard dynamic mic like the SM57, add the hyper drive and benefit from
Class A discrete gain, resulting in a sound on a par to a world class condenser
microphone perfect for vocals and instruments. Recording acoustic or classical
guitar, for example, becomes a breeze – no more cranking up the volume on your
pre-amp and without the need for capacitors or resistors in the gain staging pathway.
You will hear the sound of the microphone, not your pre-amp! The Hyper Drive HD1
will improve the quality and noise floor of your recordings and reduce the likelihood
of buzz, interference and feedback in live performances.
