The Empirical Labs Mike-E™ is a modern digitally controlled Microphone Preamplifier chocked with unusual features to warm and soften the source, along with an excellent compressor/limiter.

Mike-E offers an incredible performance transformer-coupled mic preamp, whose noise floor is far below any microphone’s self noise. The one-of-a-kind ‘CompSat’ section is an uncompromising compressor and saturator circuit that offers versatile ‘coloring’, and classic knee compression.

Mic Preamp Section
This is a super low noise transformer input amplifier section, with the gain digitally controlled. This section comes standard with a shielded Lundahl transformer, but provides for a Jensen transformer also.

The signal to noise far exceeds any microphone in existence, typically over 130 dB with the input shorted and 40dB of gain. Having used many mic preamps over the years, we have implemented a unique stepped gain control that should be impervious to the normal flakiness that age causes to pots and detented switches.

Counting the output gain of 14 dB, a total 74 dB of gain is available to the user with the CompSat section bypassed. A 48 Volt Phantom power is provided for condenser mikes. 
Freq. Response is 3 Hz to 200 kHz on (No CompSat). CompSat is 3Hz – 150Khz. Optional Transformer output is 6Hz–80kHz
Signal to Noise - 130 dB signal to Noise.at 40dB gain. Maximum output is +28dBu
Distortion Ranges between .0006% and 15% depending on mode and settings
Transformer coupled Input, Active and Transformer Outputs available - high quality audio caps used internally
Input Impedance is 600 Ohms. Output impedance is less than 38 ohms
Attack/Decay Ranges - .9 – 100mS attack. .15 – 1 Sec
Power Consumption – 15 Watts Max
