Behringer MIC2200 V2 Preamplificator de microfon

Tube Microphone Preamplifier with Analog Character

The Behringer MIC2200 V2 is a 2-channel tube microphone preamplifier crafted to bring vintage warmth to both modern digital recordings and live sound. Thanks to the hand-selected 12AX7 vacuum tube, this rackmountable device offers up to 60 dB of ultra-low-noise gain per channel—enough for low-output microphones without excessive interface noise. Those in search of improved signal chains, from engineers to podcasters, experience the harmonic saturation and openness that purely digital rigs can lack.

Parametric EQ and Line Driver for Professional Signal Flow

What distinguishes this preamp in its category is the fully parametric single-band EQ on each channel. It gives you independent controls for center frequency, bandwidth, and boost/cut level over a wide 10 Hz–20 kHz spectrum. An onboard line driver converts -10 dBV signals to +4 dBu professional line level, making gain staging easy when patching into mixers or interfaces.

Flexible Input and Output Connectivity

Routing flexibility is crucial for integrating outboard gear. The MIC2200 V2 achieves this with servo-balanced connections throughout.

• Connect microphones, instruments, or FX loop returns to each channel using XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs.
• Outputs: XLR and 6.3 mm TRS — gold-plated XLR outs offer a balanced signal to your interface or mixing console.
• Channels: 2 independent — track two microphones at once or process stereo sources through tube preamplification.

Tone Shaping and Gain Control Parameters

Sculpting your sound at the input stage saves time in the mix and leads to more intentional recordings. This model provides comprehensive control over your signal before it enters your DAW.

• Gain: 60 dB — get enough headroom for low-output dynamic and ribbon microphones.
• High-Pass Filter: 12 Hz–320 Hz, 12 dB/octave — adjustable cutoff removes stage rumble, handling noise, and plosives before they hit your interface.
• Use the parametric EQ (10 Hz–20 kHz, fully adjustable Q and level) to add vocal presence, reduce harshness on cymbals, or clean up muddy frequencies as needed.

Build Quality and Power Design

Reliable rack performance requires robust power and sturdy construction.

• Phantom Power: +48V with soft-mute — powers condenser microphones while preventing switch-on pops that can damage headphones or monitors.
• Power Supply: Internal switch-mode (100–240 V~) — runs worldwide with minimal noise contribution, ideal for touring racks and mobile studios.
• Metering: 12-segment LED per channel — accurately monitor your output level to avoid clipping.
