“There is no other mic pre out there that delivers the warmth and clarity of the Electronaut. Whether using the DI for bass or the mic pre on a vocal, you can dial in such diverse and pleasing variations of color and tone – from super-tubey and saturated, to transparent and crystal-clean. The M63 is… Continue Reading
“The moment I heard my drum mics through the M63 I was blown away. This is my favorite tube mic pre EVER!”
“I used the M63 on vocals and acoustic guitars and I gotta say it’s the best sounding preamp I have ever heard. I used a custom built Telefunken mic and an AEA R84 ribbon with fantastic results. I used it quite a bit on the “Sammy Hagar & Friends” album I recorded last year.” (Photo… Continue Reading
“I think that you can use the Electronaut M63 on almost anything and get tremendous results; therefore, it is very versatile. Among the tube pre-amp category, this unit became one of my favorites and I sincerely encourage you if you have the possibility to make a test as for sure this M63 unit can bring… Continue Reading
“The M63 is open and airy – perfect paired with an RCA BK5 on percussion. Transparent and focused imaging, allowing the mic’s natural smearing to come through, but not by being unmusically clear… instead, very harmonically pleasing on it’s own.”
“The next thing that we cut was the lead vocal — he was singing into a Neumann U67. We ended up using the Electronaut tube preamp, and the second that we plugged it in to that pre, it was a unanimous decision. It instantly sounded great, and had an incredible mid-range detail.”
“The M63 makes ALL microphones sound great. My U47 has never sounded so U47-ish! It is also a fantastic tube DI. It shines on bass guitar and keyboards as it can be overdriven subtly or to an extreme or not at all. It’s crystal clear with sharp transient response and reach for miles, and it… Continue Reading
“The M63 provided the clearest and smoothest bass response I’ve ever heard. Wonderful for use on bass guitar, either with a mic or direct. Also, using Coles 4038s with these preamps for horns was the easiest time I’ve ever had getting exactly the sound I wanted.”
“Flexibility is the cornerstone of my studio ethos. In my 20 years in the business, I have always sought out studio products that deliver in multiple situations and I only buy gear I think has long-term survivability. I consider my Electronaut M63 another awesome tool in the shed, right there with our Neumann 367’s, My… Continue Reading
“Our first test was with the Blue Blueberry which we know very well. Plugged it in and the M63 made it sound like a U47! Needless to say we were blown away — the Blueberry has never sounded so good! We then plugged in a Bock 251. Ouch! @#$%^& Absolutely amazing! I don’t have words,… Continue Reading
“I love my Electronaut M63 on acoustic instruments, and I love how it flatters dynamic mics. It’s rich and euphonic like a classic tube pre. I had a chance to use the M63 next to a pristine, classic V76, and the M63 held its own.”
“I love the M63. It is among the best that I have ever heard, if not the best.”
“If we could measure a mic preamp’s cholesterol level, then this impressive super-boutique-vacuum-tube-animal from Chicago would be riding the edge of what is allowed in unsaturated fats! I have never experienced this much weight coming out of anything like the m63! This is an unbelievable musicbox!! Big thanks to Flyline who imported this foreign dreamtool… Continue Reading
