DMP3 | User Guide
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the M-Audio DMP3 Microphone/Instrument
Pre-Amplifier. The DMP3 gives you two completely independent channels of high gain,
ultra low noise pre-amps in a sturdy desktop unit. Each channel provides low
impedance microphone inputs on XLR connectors with optional phantom power, plus
an alternate high impedance instrument input on 1/4" TS jacks. The DMP3 outputs can
be used as balanced or unbalanced via its 1/4” TRS jacks.
Microphones, guitars with magnetic or piezo pickups, and any instrument that needs a
boost in gain to "line level" will benefit from the superior sonic quality of the DMP3. Two
separate gain ranges are conveniently selectable from the front panel for each DMP3
channel. Low cut "rumble" filters for each channel eliminate unwanted low-end noise,
while individual phase inversion switches ensure that you will always achieve the greatest
result when using the DMP3 in a stereo or dual mic situation. Large, classic VU meters
give an excellent visual representation of the DMP3 output levels.
DMP3 Features
• 2 independent XLR, fully balanced mic inputs.
• 2 alternate, independent 1/4” unbalanced, high impedance inputs, impedance
matched for ideal performance with electric and acoustic guitars and other
high impedance mics or instruments.
• Each preamp channel provides two gain ranges to accomodate a variety of
output levels from microphones and instruments.
• Exceptional frequency response, extremely flat throughout all frequencies.
• Separate low-cut filters for each channel with switch and LED indicator.
• Separate gain controls for each of the pre-amplifiers.
• Individual phase inversion switches for each channel.
• VU meters for each preamp channel gives excellent visual reference of output
levels.
• Individual clip LEDs for each pre-amp channel indicate peak levels.
• XLR 48v phantom power can be switched on or off for both mic inputs, with
an LED indicator.
• Dual-purpose independent 1/4” outputs accept either tip-ring-sleeve plugs for
balanced outputs or tip-sleeve plugs for unbalanced outs.
• Sturdy desktop unit with a handsome, vintage look.
