is it OK to use a mixing board (soundcraft) as a preamp, or is there a significant improvement to buy a separate preamp? I have a line 6 flextone II that has a modeled tube preamp... anyone know about that?
 
most of the soundcraft boards have pretty nice preamps. stick with them unless you're willing to pay significantly more per channel.
 
I have a Spirit board that I use regularily as a preamp (ven for multiple chanels) and it works very good for me.

I'd say stick with it unless you have $$$ to spend on a much nicer preamp. A budget preamp will sound the same (or worse, probably) than the ones in the soundcrafts.
