Audient Mico Pre

[digitone]

Might be a stupid question...

Thinking about getting this pre (anyone have any input on it?) and in the back, the outputs are "Rear panel line output on XLR ." So connection wise, I would plug the XLR out from the preamp into a 1/4" line input instead of an XLR mic input on my interface, correct?

Or in two words... Hum yup.

Thanks. Wonder why they don't just do a 1/4" output on the preamp since it's line...

Some pro gear will have an XLR balanced line level out, some other gear to save space will have a TRS Balanced 1/4" out, and some gear will have a TS unbalanced 1/4" out to save cost.
