Midas XL48 8-Channel Mic Pre price drop

[cgrafx]

Looks like there was a price drop for this interface. Originally it had a MSRP of $5k+

Its actually at a pretty reasonable price point. $900 from a number of sources.

1U 8 channels all with independent Pad, Phantom, high pass, low pass and phase.

Only thing missing is D/A, but it looks like a very nice piece of kit at a midrange price.

Also, either sample rates are auto-selected and the grey button below the sample rate lights is an unlabeled power siwtch, or this unit has no power switch.

Correct.

Not having a power switch would be a plus for me.

Here's a look at the back. I would expect quite a price drop as now the famous Midas is now being made by Behringer in China.... Who would pay $5k+ for that????

I understand the preamps were designed by Behringer. Grin

[KarelNoon]

what about the remote option from Apssys? would that work?

[PhaseShifter]

This unit is a bad fit for a SAC rig.

Okay, I'll bite - why is it a bad fit?
