When ART introduced their first Tube MP microphone preamp, it set a new standard for performance expectations - Mix magazine nominated the unit for a prestigious TEC Award. ART went on to develop a full line of microphone preamps that all have the ART sound along with a full line of tube compressors, including the acclaimed PRO VLA. The Pro VLA won Electronic Musician Magazine Editor's Choice Award for Best Dynamics Processor.
Stephen Helm, managing director of Sonic8 states: "I've always been very impressed with the price performance ratio offered by the ART tube products and by packaging this for today's digital recording environment, I believe that we'll be offering UK-based musicians and studios some exceptional tools". To this end, Sonic8 will be heavily promoting key ART products over the coming months such as the Tube MP Studio V3, a single channel mic pre featuring ART's new V3 (Variable Valve Voicing) Technology; the DPS II with its twin high performance discrete preamplifiers coupled with a 12A X 7A gain stage and a choice of analog and digital (S/PDIF, TOSLINK or ADAT) outputs; and the Digital MPA, a professional mic pre-amp.
