Mic preamps are "OK". While the mic preamps are skimpy on levels, the
results are about average for what I consider pro gear, i.e. a little
better than my Mackie SDR 24/96, but not as good as my Cranesong Spider.
Noise levels are low. Fidelity is good. Even with (euphemistically)
lots of headroom raising the levels to peak at -1 dBFS doesn't cause any
noticeable problems.
Thanks for the review. For a better on-board pre-amp, consider one of the mods from
www.oade.com .
Doug improved mightily on the pre-amp in my Marantz 670, lowering the noise and increasing the headroom. He offers similar upgrades for several current flash recorders, including the R-4.
