Description

Grace Design m802 Microphone Preamp w/ A/D Option Details
This particular Grace Design m802 is an 8-Channel Microphone Preamplifier that has the optional 8-channel 24bit/192kHz A/D converter card option pre-installed. The 8-channel 24bit/192kHz A/D converter card, developed as the perfect complement to the m802 mic preamplifier design, this converter card provides pristine, musical A/D conversion to rival even the finest stand alone units available. Included is Grace Designs' proprietary unique s-Lock dual stage PLL for extremely low intrinsic jitter and rock solid digital performance.

The Grace Design m802
The Grace Design m802 isn’t just in a class of its own, it’s an entirely different species. Arguably the world’s most evolved mic preamplifier, the m802 delivers functionality and performance which simply doesn’t exist in any other mic amp design.

The core is a high fidelity 8-channel microphone preamplifier designed to be extremely transparent and musical. Then the fun begins. The m802 is fully remote controllable. With Grace Designs' full featured stand alone hardware RCU, up to 64 channels (a system of 8 m802’s) can be addressed and controlled seamlessly from up to 1000’ away. All preamplifier functions, including gain, phase, 48V phantom are instantly accessible and adjustable. These settings can then all be stored into preset locations and instantly recalled.

Or, the m802 can also be controlled directly from Digidesign ProTools|HD systems, compatible control surfaces and many other MIDI devices. Working closely with Digidesign, we have adapted their control spec to directly address the m802 as an integrated part of a ProTools|HD system. Additionally, the m802 can be controlled by a wide variety of MIDI mappable devices, making it easily integrated into a wide variety of remote recording situations.

Further control options include the all new Studio Six Digital stand alone computer based (PC or Mac) MIDI control utility ' Grace Design m802 Commander.

The Grace Designs m802 is also available without the optional 8 channel 24bit/192kHz A/D card pre-installed as the Grace Design m802 8-Channel Remote Microphone Preamp.

DPA 4000 series 130V microphones are widely regarded as some of the finest reference-quality microphones available. Yet, with their unique 130V power requirement, preamplifier options for these mics are quite limited. So Grace Designs have made the m802 an excellent complement for DPA microphones by adding a 130V power option, available on a per channel pair basis. The m802 now includes ribbon mic mode, which shifts the preamplifier’s entire gain range up 10dB, while deactivating 48V phantom power, optimizing input impedance and bypassing the decoupling capacitors.

While the m802 works beautifully as a stand alone mic preamplifier, the optional Remote Control Unit (RCU) provides fantastic ergonomics and enhanced system control. This updated RCU now offers dedicated individual channel select switches and a new highly visible blue LED numeric display for channel gain settings. Both the RCU and the m802 now come with a high contrast, neutral white backlight LCD.

Whatever your application, Grace Designs and Front End Audio invite you to discover the remarkable sonic performance, functionality and reliability of the new m802. We’re confident that it will help you make the finest recordings of your career.
