Mike-e bietet einen unglaublich leistungsfähigen travosymetrierten Mikrofonpreamp, dessen Eigenrauschen weit unter dem von Mikrofonen liegt. Die einzigartige ConpSat Section bietet eine kompromisslose Kompressor und Bandsättigungs-Schaltung, die es möglich macht den Klang vielfältig zu färben und durch klassische Knee Kompression zu komprimieren.
