A lot of this came about, because as some of you surely remember, I had piles of ALL the mic preamps everyone could name, between Vintage Recorders and Studio Z. Except on some pathological stuff, nobody, not any of the people who constantly claimed these HUGE world ending differences, could reliably pick one mic preamp from another, nor could they even tell if the preamp had been changed or if they were listening to the exact same file back to back, when these things were operated in their nominal range.

So now I'm being taken to task that "ITS SO TOTALLY OBVIOUS ANYONE CAN HEAR IT OMGZORZ !!!!!!!!" they are somehow super drastically different when pushed a bit. Thats a lot of what I want to measure


But if I can also document the frequency response as well (as again, this is where HUGE world shattering claims of differences are also made), then that is a bonus. And noise

Noise is a biggie

Potentially, this one if bad enough, should be noticeable in realistic conditions, but that's a big if
