Product Description
The Grace Design model 801 is an eight channel microphone preamplifier designed to capture all the subtlety and detail that exists in music. Grace Design has built the 801 with an obsessive attention to quality and detail. From the immaculate, refined circuit topology and carefully selected electronic components to the CNC machined T6 Aluminum chassis, you will find absolutely no compromises.The model 801's signal path is more than simply transparent or neutral, it's an invisible link between the microphone and tape recorder. Built to capture the most subtle ambient information and complex harmonic structures, the model 801 creates a new level of sonic realism. Combining eight world class microphone preamplifiers in one chassis provides a new world of possibilities.
With the recording industry now dominated by the use of DAW and MDMs, the 801 is the perfect front end for any workstation or tape machine. In the commercial production facility, concert hall or project studio, the model 801 faithfully delivers reference quality tracks. For anyone who strives to print the best possible sounds to tape or disk, the model 801 is the original and undisputed king of 8 channel microphone preamplifiers.
