The MM-1 is at home in high-definition television production, corporate/industrial environments, radio/television announce booths, and music production. Its headphone monitor is an advantage in applications where communications channels or mix-minus feeds need to be monitored in headphones. The user can monitor both microphone audio and external audio sources in headphones with level control.

The MM-1 is designed to be durable. Its aluminum chassis, oversized end panels, machined knobs, and panel mounted connectors assure reliable mechanical operation.

Highly Versatile and Portable

Sound Devices’ MM-1 is a single-channel, portable microphone preamplifier with a powerful headphone monitoring function. Proven in mission-critical applications, the high-performance microphone preamplifier uses a transformer-balanced input and output with a bipolar ±15 volt power supply to produce low-noise, low-distortion gain at all switch positions. It features an “unclippable” dual-stage limiter and two-position high-pass filter. Flexible microphone powering provides phantom power at 48 volts or 12 volts and 12-volt T-power. It is powered from two AA batteries or external 5-17 VDC.

Highlights

  • Maximum of 66 dB of gain, in eleven discrete steps
  • Dynamic range exceeding 120 dB
  • 10 Hz to 50 kHz audio bandwidth
  • High immunity to RF interference
  • High current line output driver
  • Transformer-balanced input and output
  • Extended range peak limiter via dual opto-isolators makes preamplifier virtually "unclippable"
  • Selectable 48-volt / 12-volt phantom power or 12-volt "T" power
  • High-pass filter @ 80 or 160 Hz, 6 dB per octave

  • (Mic – Line): 0 dB to 66 dB input to output, switch selectable
  • Frequency Response: (Mic – Line) 20 Hz –20 kHz, +0.1, -0.5 dB, -1 dB at 50 kHz (relative to 1 kHz level with 150 ohm source)
  • Equivalent Input Noise: (Mic) -126 dBu (-128 dBV) maximum (150 ohm source, flat weighting, 22 Hz – 22 kHz bandwidth gain setting 36 dB or greater)
  • Dynamic Range: (Mic to Line) 122 dB minimum at the +18 dB gain setting
  • THD + Noise: 0.05% maximum (from 50 Hz – 22 kHz @ +4 dBu output level, 22 Hz – 22 kHz filter bandwidth, +46 dB gain setting
  • Gain Accuracy: (Mic – Line) +0.6, -0.1 dB with reference to front panel gain markings (150 ohm source, 100 k load impedances)
  • Input Clipping Level: (Mic) +4 dBu minimum at the 0 or +18 dB gain setting
  • Common Mode Rejection Ratio: 100 dB minimum at 80 Hz60 dB minimum at 10 kHz
  • (Line) +22 dBu minimum with 100k ohm load
  • +20 dBu minimum with 600 ohm load
  • 0.7 kg without batteries (1.1 lbs)
  • 49 mm x 95 mm x 166 mm, 1.95″ x 3.75″ x 6.55″ (h x w x d)
