In-line Microphone Pream, Mic Booster Preamplifier for Dynamic and Passive Ribbon Microphones (Black)

Got this a while back and it is used in my vocal mic setup on a vintage mic. This sounds clean, and best of all it's cheap. When I say clean, it is actually clean. I've tried cheap "C-Lifter" type of knock-off with reviews claiming they are "clean" but when I tried them they were not.This was used in comparison reviews of similar products I own and serves as a "standard" for price factor and cleanliness in sound.Still works great and I have no issues otherwise.

To put some perspective on my review...I am a new podcaster and currently, I used a Shure SM58 beta with a lynx xlr cable connected to the Behringer U-Phoria UMC204HD digital interface.This digital interface had to be turned up to near %80 gain to get the mic to where I wanted it, but of course with noise and that is of course is not a good thing.So what is a poor guy to do? Well, start looking for an inline preamp...Of course, I checked out the Cloud lifter which sells for approximately $150 cdn, the dynamite preamp which sells for approximately $134.00 cdn and the Fethead which sells for $100 at the time of the review.While researching the three above units in question, I stumbled across the Manayo DM3 on Amazon. It is clearly a clone of the SE Electronics Dynamite stick as I discovered after searching for more information on it. I was skeptical at first but after reading the reviews here and watching YT videos, I thought it was worth it and as a prime member, I could return it if I did not like it!Upon receiving my Manayo preamp, I plugged it into the 204 DI and the first thing I noticed was I had to have my gain on the Digital Interface turned all the way down and it was still too loud.If this happens to you, don't worry...........that is why you have the PAD button on the interface! To attenuate (reduce) the db. Once I hit the PAD button, I got the perfect amount of db going through my midas preamps in the 204. I get crisp and noise free sound at 30 to 40 db on the digital interface!If you are on the fence about the Manayo DMC 3, don't be, it's worth every penny and at least half the cost of those other guys, its SO WORTH IT! I bought it when it was 20% off on Amazon which was $39.66 cdn (regular price was $49.58 cdn).SAY YOUR MONEY AND GET THIS..........................NO REGRETS!!

Cumple con lo que promete. Aproximadamente 26db más. Sonido limpio. Estoy satisfecho. Aunque por alguna razón mi caja venía sin el papel de especificaciones e instrucciones, pero no importa. El producto funciona.Puedes conectarlo directo al micrófono o si prefieres a la interfaz, no olvides activar el 48V Phantom Power.

Bought an Fduce sl40 as a begginer xlr mic just for gaming not content creation as I wanted to impress my friends with the quality of my mic. I bought the vocaster one for the audio interface and just had a hunch I'd need an inline Amp to be actually heard in discord and games without having the crank the gain on the vocaster all the way to 100, which this handy little device allowed me to avoid doing. Gain on the vocaster is set to around 50-60% with a filter on to make my voice even more crisp and radio caster sounding. Overall very happy I purchased this budget friendly inline mic Amp. Would recommend for people who also want to actually be heard on their new xlr mix for discord, calls and gaming.

Honestly, I did not expect this to perform as well as it does. I got it to use with a Zoom H6, which has pretty noisy preamps (EIN of -120dBu), but it even improves upon my Presonus Studio 26c interface (good preamps, but not the best by today's standards (EIN -125dBu)). The product doesn't feel flimsy, but it doesn't feel particularly sturdy, either. But at $30 (compared to $80 or more for the name brands), I can live with that.However, you should only get this if your audio device has an EIN rating higher than -128dBu (-120dBu, for instance; most modern preamps are REALLY good, though) or it doesn't have enough amplification for your dynamic mic of choice (keep in mind this won't work with a condenser).Definitely worth the price for the performance.
