Behringer Tube Ultragain MIC100 User Manual

6 TUBE ULTRAGAIN MIC100 User Manual

With the MIC100, you have purchased an extremely musical mic preamp that 

is equipped with a 12AX7 vacuum tube. An integrated limiter, a phase reverse 

function, phantom power supply, a highly accurate LED meter and a switchable pad 

function complement this powerful device.

The heart of the TUBE ULTRAGAIN is an extremely low-noise microphone preamp 

circuitry that uses discrete components and produces a highly trans-parent 

sound. In combination with our BEHRINGER tube technology, the operational 

amplifiers 4580 and a sophisticated circuit topology, the TUBE ULTRAGAIN yields 

excellent noise and distortion properties. The innovative UTC circuitry that has 

been developed by our engineering team offers an abundance of sound-shaping 

possibilities. Absolute musicality was our major goal when we designed the 

TUBE ULTRAGAIN. The result is a device that, thanks to our tube circuitry,  lends an 

incredible punch to percussion instruments. On the other hand, instruments that 

are rich in upper harmonics will receive more transparency. The sound will be warm, 

detailed and brilliant.

Surely you know the recording problem that single instruments or vocals sometimes 

don’t cut through. Thanks to the TUBE ULTRAGAIN, vocals gain in presence and 

volume without masking other instruments. As a result, your voice will be perfectly 

integrated in the mix.
