Important Additional Info Manual PreSonus BlueTube DP Tube Preamp Manual Customer Review Rate and Review this Product: 2 people wrote reviews 6 people rated this item Jack R. from Madison, Wisconsin, USA jarober1@charter.net Overall Ranking: Ease of Use: Features: Overall: Quality: Reliability: Sound: Subject: Drop In a Different Tube and You're Ready to Go! Quality: Again, quality seems fine--just needs to have the tube replaced with a better quality valve. Features: One can crank the tube for a bit of warm distortion or have it be a straight solid-state signal. Ease of Use: This unit is easy enough to use--XLR and RCA jacks in and out. Buttons and dials all function fine and easily. The VU meters are a bit iffy but you should be adjusting the sound with your ears, and the volume on your amp/recording deck. Sound: Tone is excellent--for the price--once the factory-installed tube is replace with one of better quality. It's a simple procedure that changes the sound from jagged/brittle to round/warm.... Reliability: Seems sturdy enough. I wouldn't want to perform any "Drop Tests" on it, as with any equipment with tubes. Overall: For the money, it's fine, but IT REALLY NEEDS TO HAVE A BETTER TUBE DROPPED IN. It's very simple to replace it and once you do that, the sound is WARM and not brittle sounding, as it is with the stock tube it comes with. Do you own this product?: Yep! Date submitted: 7-27-2011 RoadCone Productions from Newburgh, NY Roadconeproductions@gmail.com Overall Ranking: Ease of Use: Features: Overall: Quality: Reliability: Sound: Subject: save for bigger and better pre's Quality: this is ok for everything that doesnt really matter. (i.e. garage practice, rehearsals) but if reall quality is what you are hoping for do yourself a favor and hold on to your money for something genuinly better. Features: wire plus gain, phase reverse, phantom power, PAD, and high pass. nothing special. Ease of Use: easy to use plug it in turn up the gain and there is sound. not great sound but sound none the less. Sound: not pleasing. colors the sound in a way that makes it grainy not full bodied like i want, adds a bit of fuzz and sharp brittle highs, but not complex warm overtones. im looking into the GoldenAge Pre73 which has stellar reviews on its similarity to the legandary Neve 1073. Reliability: power supply died in less than a year. Overall: not worth the money if you have pre's on your A/D converter. i wanted some smooth tube tone instead i just have a brittle preamp that is better suited as a $200 paper weight. Do you own this product?: yup if you want mine you can have it though Date submitted: 9/23/09 Read all reviews
