Attenuation (gain loss of summing mixer) — -> The most important factor in the modern analog mixing process. While other manufacturers come with huge attenuation — gain loss mixers like -35 or -45dB relative to 0dB, because of this you are forced to use expensive low noise high gain preamps to re-amp this huge loss without picking up noise, the VintageMaker mixers are designed for your DAW interface MicPreamps “sweet spot” working range.
Why it’s this important? Because you don’t have to use or buy expensive low noise Mic preamps with high gain like +65dB amplification.
Can I use my DAW interface “stock” mic preamps or line input’s for gain makeup?
Yes, you can. By prior consultation the mixer will be designed for your DAW mic preamp working range, so you can use your DAW interface mic preamp without any compromises. re4ad more: https://vintagemaker.net/analogsummingmixer/
You can order different gain reduction mixer (let me know about your DAW mic preamp gain range)
Select Reduction: -6,5dB / -10dB / -15dB / -20dB / -25dB (free order)
- Minimal: -6,5dB -10dB reduction
- LOW: -15dB gain reduction ideal for entry level preamps or DAW mic pre or instrument input
- MID: -20dB gain reduction ideal for mid range preamps or DAW mic pre or instrument input UAD, Focusrite and so on.
- HIGH: -25dB gain reduction ideal for high range preamps like Neve, Api, Avalon or DAW mic pres
To make the best, just let me know the maximum gain of your DAW mic preamp or external preamp in dB (like +20dB /+30dB/+55dB/+65dB or more) or let me know your DAW interface type / brand.
Example: -15dB reduction summing with +30dB maximum gain preamp = perfect “middle way” ratio, low noise , low SNR, suitable headroom for transients.
