Presonus Review: DigiMax

History:

Purchase: I Received the unit from the Cable tech company in Vancouver Canada

What I Like About This Presonus DigiMax: I like the fact that they based the mic preamps from the mp20 and vxp versions. Being an avid user of both products I was looking for an eight channel mic preamp to incorporate for my Logic audio, Frontier design setup.I had read many reviews and was fortunate enough to no Jim Wray at the company that is Presonus .I was one of the first studios in Canada to use a vxp unit and still swear by them today !Yes I have more expensive units example dbxs 576, and avalons 737 and 747s but I must say there are many days when we often choose an mp20 or vxp over the Avalons and Dbxs so it was inevitable that the curiosity of such a unit needed to be investigated.We put the unit through many tests Drum kits, keys,vocals ect.the Tone was clean and true on all that we usen the unit on as I have read in other reviews. The limiters worked great on the drum kit solid true and warm!!!Acoustic guitars were also very favorable with bright highs and rich lows. Was this for real well, yes!The 20db pad also worked fantastic.And well although there are other models and other companys begging for your hard earned dollar I can tell you first hand that my experience with Jim Wray and the staff at Presonus have been unpresidented and super reliable .So if there does come a day when there is a problem !No problem your covered ! If your looking for a sensible but professional eight channel mic pre give this one a ride.
