PreSonus tube preamps are known for their warm, smooth sound. With the Blue Tube DP dual-path mic\/instrument preamp, you get both types of high-quality sound in one unit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BlueTube DP v2 is an improvement on the classic BlueTube DP preamp. The solid-state path now feeds PreSonus' pure Class A XMAX mic preamplifier with 80dB of variable gain-an upgrade from the original BlueTube DP's solid-state stage. The tube path features a 12AX7 tube, which operates on voltages double that of other preamplifiers in its class, producing lots of headroom and big tone. BlueTube DP v2 offers lower noise, more high-end clarity, and an even smoother tube sound than its predecessor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou still get all the secondary features you expect in a professional-grade preamp: 48V phantom power, an 80Hz high-pass filter, -20dB pad to control hot input signals, and a polarity-reverse switch. Each channel has an illuminated VU meter so you can visually monitor your input levels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Tube Drive control provides a wide range of sounds: when it's clicked off, you're using the solid-state preamp for quiet, transparent amplification; when it's engaged, your signals flow through the tube preamp, and you can achieve anything from gentle warmth to edgy distortion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVersatile and Affordable\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eWith two combo mic\/instrument inputs, the half-rackspace BlueTube DP v2 is a great choice for guitars and basses as well as for vocals. Singer-songwriters can run their vocal through one channel and their guitar through the other, feeding both to the P.A.-no guitar amp needed. It also serves as a DI box, thanks to balanced XLR and unbalanced 1\/4\" outputs, and is housed in a new, rugged, 1\/2U case. Try the BlueTube DP v2 as a front end for a DAW, too; sure, your recording interface might already include preamps, but few of them give you both tube and solid-state operation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe have also updated the preamp's compact, rugged enclosure; it has more rounded edges and looks modern and sleek. It can be used as a desktop unit or it can be screw-mounted to a standard rack tray.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 class=\"accordion-item_content-header\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual path mic\/instrument tube preamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-headroom Class A XMAX mic preamplifier with 80dB gain range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12AX7 Vacuum tube gain stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTube Drive tube-saturation control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48V Phantom power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80Hz High-pass filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e-20dB Pad to reduce hot input levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolarity-reverse switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIlluminated analog VU input-level meter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Balanced combo mic\/unbalanced instrument inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Balanced XLR main (L\/R) line outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Unbalanced ¼\" main (L\/R) line outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 1\/2U chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal 12 VDC, 1A power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp class=\"accordion-item_content-text -bold\"\u003e\nGet the new and improved version of the PreSonus BlueTube DP preamp today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 class=\"accordion-item_content-header\"\u003eBlueTube DP V2 2-Channel Mic\/Instrument Tube Preamp Specifications:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"4\"\u003eINPUTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMic Input:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Type: XLR, female, balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEIN: -131 dB, 20kHz BW, max gain, Rs=40?, A-wtd -128 dB, 20kHz BW, max gain, Rs=40?, unwtd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz, -0.3 dB, +4dBu, unity gain 5Hz - 120kHz, -3dB, +4dBu, unity gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD+N: 0.01%, -10 dBu, 1kHz, unity gain, 20kHz BW, unwtd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic Range: 115dB, 1kHz, unity gain, 20kHz BW, A-wtd 107 dB, 1kHz, unity gain, 20kHz BW, unwtd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput Impedance: 1.3 k?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhantom Power: +48 VDC, 10 mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstrument Input:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Type: 1\/4\" TS, female, unbalanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput Impedance: 1 M?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstrong role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"4\"\u003eOUTPUT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog Output:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Types: XLR, male, balanced 1\/4\" TS, female, unbalanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum Output: +20 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: 51?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTube Stage:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: 12AX7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: +12 VDC, 1000 mA, center pin positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePSU Barrel Dimensions: 5.5mm O.D., 2.1mm I.D., 9.5mm length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/link.livewiremusicnow.com\/warranties\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSee our Warranty Information here\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PreSonus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44924234760328,"sku":"LWM-01665","price":654.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/2009\/7160\/files\/5149604279.jpg?v=1774431256","url":"https:\/\/livewire-music-2.myshopify.com\/products\/presonus-bluetube-dp-v2-2-channel-mic-instrument-tube-preamp","provider":"LiveWire Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
