Also, would this do well instead of the both 2.2uF parts?

Thank you very much Ian,

MatthisD said:Would it be viable to ad a mic input in front of the gain makeup? (..albeit without phantom and suited for loud sources)
Assuming a Poor Man's pultec/gain makeup combination and adding a 2nd XLR input wired to a 1:5 or similar mic input transformer with the secondaries wired to the third position of the EQ bypass switch. So you'd have 'EQ in', 'EQ bypass' as in Ian's schematic and a 'Mic Pre' position. Could you simply use a gain pot for 'microphone level' at the makeup gain input and a loading resistor back to input transformer secondaries, would this allow for full use of the Poor Man's 26db and the stepup gain from the input transformer?

MatthisD said:Yes exactly, an extra pair of poorman's preamps for just the cost of 2x transformers and some bits and bobs. You could always use one channel for the Mic preamp and the other for EQ (out and back in). Should the gain pot be 470k Log rather than linear?
thanks alot
Matt
ruffrecords said:For the EQ it should be linear because you should only need to alter the gain over a limited range. That way you will have about 6dB attenuation at the half way point. As the EQ has an insertion loss of about 20dB and the amp has about 26dB of gain then the pot will usually end up somewhere near the middle of is travel. A log pot would give about 20dB attenuation at the mid point which is not what we want.

MatthisD said:I had noted that in the first post about the Linear pot for the EQ, I was referring to the 'gain pot' that could be used for Mic level. But as you said a Log provides 20dB attenuation at midway point, sounds about right.
Much appreciated
