Single channel Mic PreAmp w 48V

[chris_bollard]

I've been doing so Googling but not really come up with anything

 

I'm looking for a SMALL portable single channel mic pre amp with 48V phantom to use with my 688 & 633

 

Any suggestions?

How small is "small"?

There is the Sound Devices MM1 (and the older/cheaper MP1).

Marenius C-148 is similar to the MM1

You’re not kidding. Exceedingly similar!

In the sense it is a box with knobs on it and XLR in/out?

That is a very generic similarity. 

I can see tonnes of differences in the details, for instance with powering: 4x AAA + Hirose is what the Marenius C-148 has (quite different to the MM1!).

Thanks for the input. Mozegear looking good  - they all have pros and cons for my situation - looked at the Korwitch also

Sonosax sxbd 1 although the limiter distorts a bit, but I never used limiting anyway.

An old used MixPre, the original version, used?  2 pres, good limiters, trafos, can mix or not!

I realize this is a bit of a late addition to this discussion, however I wanted to add one more pre-amp to the line up. In addition to our Mini Papi, we brought out a 2 channel version called the Papi Pico.  It has 2 channels with a headphone amp and optional Timecode Generator.

 

It is the same small size as the Mini Papi, (7.29 cubic inches). Channel A is similar to the Mini Papi with all the features,  Channel B is a pre-amp without phantom power.  There is a headphone amp with rotary volume, 4 settings and a return.  The timecode generator supports all standard frame rates, has variable level output, and an internal battery that is good up to 12 hours.

 

This could be used in a boom kit.  Channel A for the boom mic,  and  channel B for IFB.  It powers from 5 to 18 volts so you can use a USB power pack.

 

Here is the downlink which will give you more information and the spec’s:

Fostex had a very small 1ch one , but unfortunately they decided to discontinue it, maybe on the second hand market ?

Sennheiser also has a 1ch preamp Sennheiser MZA14P48U , these are quite easy to find on ebay

Vark Audio has a very nice mic amp box that is made for the 633. I’m sure you could use it on the bigger recorder too.
