Introduction
The MP-2NV and the ME-1NV are professional quality microphone preamplifiers designed to re-
create the vintage sound characteristics of the early 1970s large consoles. Modern components
give the NV Series more clarity, punch and performance under normal use. In addition, features
like metering before and after the major gain stages let the user drive them “hard” to greatly
expand the range of sonic options. All microphones will benefit from the power of the NV series
preamplifiers, including dynamic, condensor and especially ribbon types.
On the MP-2NV, each channel is an independent system. All power supply regulation is
duplicated on each audio channel card. For both units, gain staging, phantom power, polarity,
impedance and loading are individually controlled. In addition, each channel is equipped with
dual LED meters and a true HI-Z instrument jack with its own input amplifier.
The ME-1NV uses the same audio and metering circuit boards as the MP-2NV, only the power
supply is smaller due to the reduced demands of the single channel. All specifications and
performance details are identical with the exception of size and weight.
