Just thought I'd give you a little update. Gave in to temptation and bought and Audient MiCO
http://www.audient.eu/products/mico-...e-preamplifier - haven't plugged it in yet, so no idea what it's like! Hoping to do some recording this coming week, and when I do, I'll post it to Soundcloud or Youtube and you can have a listen and let me know what you think (I've not posted any of my stuff on the AGF yet).
