The tone of the API 212L mic preamp finds its roots in the classic API 2488 series all discrete recording consoles, best known for the famed “LA” sound. Β This same mic preamp design is packaged into a compact module with features like a continuously adjustable gain control and a unique five segment LED VU meter on each panel.
An audio chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Β Often, emphasis is placed on obtaining the highest quality microphones, while neglecting the integrity of the mic preamp. Β The API 212L microphone pre-amplifier is an integral part of the famous Legacy Series console and is now available for the L200 Rack System. Β This modular unit incorporates the same circuit as the legendary API 512b, thus preserving its sonic qualities. Β This mic-pre articulates high frequencies with great detail, while delivering the big sounding, warm bottom end that API is famous for. Β Whether it’s a live performance or the private setting of a studio session, the 212L will capture every nuance of the moment.
The 212L mic-pre all discrete circuitry features the API 2520 op-amp, the RE 115 K input and the AP-2623 output transformer. Β A -20 dB pad is provided, allowing the plevel feeding the mic transformer to be reduced by 20 dB, while keeping the proper load on both the mic and transformer. Β 48V phantom power can be locally switched on or off via the front panel switch. Β An LED VU meter provides a true VU indication of the mic pre output level. Β The low noise floor, together with a clip point over +28 dBm, makes this preamp suitable for the most extreme applications requiring the highest quality audio.
The 212L microphone preamplifier makes use of the 2520 op-amp and therefore exhibits the reliability, long life and uniformity which are characteristic of API products.
