M S 1S
MICROPHONE STAGE
General Description
e Rane MS 1S Mic Stage preamplier
provides the answer when you need just
one microphone input in an otherwise
line-level world. Give us a call to go from
either a dynamic, condenser or electret
microphone to a line-level input with a
minimum of noise, distortion, cost and
hassle.
e MS 1S provides 48 V switchable
Phantom Power with an indicator LED,
continuous rotary Gain trim between 15
dB and 60 dB, Signal/Overload LED, and
XLR balanced Input & Output connec-
tors. A Polarity switch and high-current
cross-coupled output line driver round out
the features.
e MS 1S utilizes one of the nest
ultra low noise amplier designs available.
Featuring a true dierential input with
high common-mode rejection, use of the
MS 1S guarantees performance usually
found only in mixing consoles costing
thousands of times as much. Of course,
for all of that extra money you receive a
proportional increase in KPSI (knobs per
square inch).
e MS 1S replaces the MS 1B Mic
Stage with a new internal universal power
supply. e width increases by one inch,
all other features are the same.
