You would probably want something like a Cloudlifter in line with
whatever mic you choose (and I'm not recommending an SM57 for Foley
work!), or a really high gain, low noise outboard preamp in order to
get a usable record level without pushing the PreSonus preamp to full
gain.

So any chance of doing better for my pair of NT-1A's for under $500?
