Can we get back to the topic? I really would like to see the results on this comparison. I am definitely in the market for a preamp. So far, others on this forum has convinced me of the M-Audio DMP3. But I want to see if the Studio V3 will be 'good enough' for what I do since it's cheaper.

So it looks like there is still no general consensus on if I was to only get one piece of equipment right now, whether going with a decent entry level LDC mic or getting entry level mic preamp as my first step to improve my sound from a recording equipment standpoint. I mean I assume getting a...

Did you use this for live applications or recording or both? Have you used this for miking an electric guitar amp? How did it turn out?
