Hey guys, I'm just looking for a couple opinions. I am trying to decide whether or not I should use a dedicated behringer mic pre, instead of the built in mic pres on my behringer mixer. My school of though right now is... I should go with the dedicated mic pre into the behringer mixer, because if it's just a standalone mic pre it must be better than the ones on the behringer mixer.
here's the mic pre: Behringer Ultra gain mic200
here's the mixer: Behringer Eurorack mx1604A
so far the mixer seems good enough for my needs... but If i were to use the dedicated preamp how would I go about using it? Would I go:
Mic -> Preamp -> Patchord cable out into a line in on a channel on my mixer? I mean wouldn't putting it into the line in on a mixer add the mixer-pres on top of the dedicated pres? (I hopes this isn't too confusing, but I have little experience with preamps)... so would I just turn the gain all the way down and then put it into the line in?
thanks guys.
