Rane MS1S Manual

DATA SHEET / MANUAL

General Description

The Rane MS1S Mic Stage preamplifier
provides the answer when you need just
one microphone input in an otherwise
line-level world. Give us a call to go from
either a dynamic, condenser or electret
microphone to a line-level input with a
minimum of noise, distortion, cost and
hassle.
The MS1S provides 48 V switchable
Phantom Power with an indicator LED,
continuous rotary Gain trim between 15
dB and 60 dB, Signal/Overload LED, and
XLR balanced Input & Output connec-
tors. A Polarity switch and high-current
cross-coupled output line driver round out
the features.
The MS1S utilizes one of the finest
ultra low noise amplifier designs available.
Featuring a true differential input with
high common-mode rejection, use of the
MS1S guarantees performance usually
found only in mixing consoles costing
thousands of times as much. Of course,
for all of that extra money you receive a
proportional increase in KPSI (knobs per
square inch).
The MS1S replaced the MS 1B Mic
Stage with a new internal universal power
supply. The width increased by one inch,
all other features are the same.
