E whakaatu ana tēnei whakaahua i tētahi koki view of the DYNASTY PROAUDIO TMP-1 Professional Vacuum Tube Microphone Preamplifier. The front panel with controls and indicators is visible, along with the sturdy black casing.
Ka whakaratohia e tenei whakaahua he tata view of the TMP-1's front panel. It clearly displays the "OUTPUT LEVEL" LED indicators, "Gain Input" and "Drive" rotary knobs, and push-buttons for "Phantom Power", "Limit", "Phase", and "Gain".
This image shows the rear panel of the TMP-1, highlighting the input and output connections. It includes XLR and 1/4-inch (6.35mm) input jacks, XLR and 1/4-inch (6.35mm) output jacks, and the AC 9V power input.
Nga Mana Paewhiri o mua me nga Tohu
- Ngā rama LED TAUMATA PUTANGA: Indicators for signal level (-10, -5, 0, +3, +6dB Peak).
- Gain Input Knob: Adjusts the input gain from minimum to maximum.
- Drive Knob: Controls the amount of tube saturation/drive.
- Phantom Power Button (ON/OFF): Activates/deactivates 48V phantom power for condenser microphones.
- Limit Button (ON/OFF): Engages/disengages the built-in limiter to prevent clipping.
- Phase Button (Reverse/Normal): Reverses the phase of the input signal.
- Gain Button (+20dB/Normal): Provides an additional +20dB gain boost.
Hononga Paewhiri Whakamuri
- INPUT (XLR & 1/4-inch): Balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4-inch (6.35mm) inputs for microphones or instruments.
- OUTPUT (XLR & 1/4-inch): Balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4-inch (6.35mm) outputs for connecting to mixers, audio interfaces, or other audio devices.
- AC 9V: Te tāuru hiko mō te urutau AC kua whakaurua.
Tatūnga
- Hononga Hiko: Connect the supplied AC 9V power adapter to the "AC 9V" input on the rear panel of the TMP-1, then plug the adapter into a suitable power outlet.
- Hononga Whakauru:
- For microphones: Connect your microphone to either the XLR or 1/4-inch INPUT jack on the rear panel.
- For instruments: Connect your instrument (e.g., guitar, bass) to the 1/4-inch INPUT jack.
- Hononga Huaputa: Connect the TMP-1's XLR or 1/4-inch OUTPUT to your mixer, audio interface, or recording device's input.
- Tautuhinga Tuatahi: Before powering on, ensure the "Gain Input" and "Drive" knobs are set to their minimum positions. Ensure "Phantom Power" is OFF unless using a condenser microphone.

Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
Whakakaha ana
Once all connections are made, power on the TMP-1. The "Power" LED on the front panel will illuminate.
Te whakamahi Phantom Power
Mena kei te whakamahi koe i te hopuoro whakapūmau, pēhia te Mana Hiko button to activate 48V phantom power. The corresponding LED will light up. Warning: Do not activate phantom power when using dynamic microphones or ribbon microphones, as this can cause damage.
Te whakatikatika i te whiwhinga whakauru
Tahuri āta te Gain Input knob clockwise to increase the input signal level. Monitor the "OUTPUT LEVEL" LEDs. Aim for the signal to primarily light up the -5 and 0 dB LEDs during normal operation, with occasional peaks into the +3 dB LED. Avoid consistently hitting the +6dB Peak LED, which indicates clipping.
Applying Drive (Tube Saturation)
Ko te Peia knob controls the amount of tube saturation. Turn it clockwise to add warmth and harmonic richness to your signal. Experiment with this control to find the desired sonic character.
Using the Limiter
Pehia te Tepe button to engage the built-in limiter. This helps prevent signal peaks from exceeding a certain level, protecting your recording equipment from clipping and providing a more consistent output level.
Whakamuri Wāhanga
Ko te Wāhanga button allows you to reverse the phase of the input signal. This can be useful in multi-microphone setups to correct phase cancellation issues or for creative effects.
Additional Gain Boost
If your input signal is very low, you can press the Whiwhi button to apply an additional +20dB gain boost. Use this judiciously to avoid introducing unwanted noise or distortion.

Te tiaki
- Te horoi: Whakamahia he kakahu ngohengohe, maroke hei horoi i waho o te waahanga. Kaua e whakamahia nga kai horoi wai, nga whakarewa ranei.
- Rokiroki: Whakaorangia te waeine ki te waahi makariri, maroke atu i te ra tika me te wera nui.
- Whakakapinga ngongo: The 12AX7 vacuum tube has a finite lifespan. If you notice a degradation in sound quality or increased noise over time, the tube may need replacement. This should be performed by qualified service personnel.
Raparongoā
| Raruraru | Take pea | Rongoā |
|---|---|---|
| Karekau he kaha | Power adapter not connected; faulty outlet; faulty adapter. | Check power connections; try a different outlet; test adapter if possible. |
| Kaore he putanga oro | Incorrect cable connections; gain too low; phantom power not engaged for condenser mic; faulty cable. | Verify all input/output cables are securely connected; increase Gain Input; activate Phantom Power for condenser mics; try different cables. |
| Oro kerekere | Gain too high (clipping); faulty tube; incorrect impedance. | Reduce Gain Input; check OUTPUT LEVEL LEDs for clipping; if distortion persists, consult service for tube inspection; ensure proper impedance matching. |
| Hamama, haruru ranei | Porowhita whenua; taura hē; pokanoa mai i etahi atu hikohiko. | Use balanced cables; try isolating power; move unit away from other electronic devices; check for faulty cables. |
