1. Introduction
The ProAVM MIC-IT is a professional solution for all applications in which a microphone input is not
available or is of insufficient quality.
Cost and space constraints often compromise the performance of pre-amplifiers fitted to inexpensive
mixing desks, portable digital recorders and PC soundcards. External microphone pre-amplification
from a MIC-IT can noticeably enhance overall performance, giving a wider range of gain and a
reduction of noise levels.
Other applications include the matching of quality balanced microphones to unbalanced inputs
without degradation, line driving for OBs or remotely situated microphones, and the conversion of
spare mixer line channels to accept microphone inputs.
Three switchable output modes maximise the versatility of the MIC-IT and there are also front panel
switches to assign 48V phantom power and a powerful hum and rumble rejecting high-pass filter to
one or both of the inputs.
The MIC-IT is housed in a compact and robust metal case with mounting holes for wall or under desk
mounting. An optional 1U rackmounting kit, ProAVM RACK-IT, is available.
