The mic is all you need with ToneDexter. Any additional preamp in the path would just be a nuisance and not bring anything to the table.
The ML-2 is really flat, comparable to the venerable SM81. They designed it this way so that their modeling software can morph it into the personas of other popular mics. Based on other Slate software that I use, I have no doubt that part will work well, and will be a plus for players who also record with a DAW.
For TD training it is ideal because of the combination of performance and cost. I should add that there are other very good choices on our recommended mic list on our support page.
