Suggested Replacement: MP 101

The Extron MP 101 AAP Microphone Preamplifier is a compact mic preamp for applications where a microphone must be connected to a line level audio input on a device such as a switcher or line level mixer. Mic level signals are boosted up to balanced or unbalanced line level signals. This preamp also allows a microphone to be connected to the Aux/Mix input on the Extron MediaLink® series of switchers.

The front panel of the MP 101 AAP features a microphone input on an XLR connector, a continuous gain control that can be concealed, and a push-button for muting the audio. The rear panel features a captive screw connector for the output, and slide switches for 48 volt phantom power for compatibility with condenser microphones, and a switchable low cut filter at 75 Hz to reduce rumble and wind noise picked up by the microphone.

The MP 101 AAP's output can be remotely controlled for microphone level adjustment by using the VCM 100 or VCM 200 Series volume and mute or VC 50 volume controllers. The MP 101 AAP can easily be mounted in any Extron product or mounting frame with an opening for a double-space AAP.

Features

Input: Microphone level on a 3-pin XLR connector

Output: Line level on captive screw connector

Selectable 48 volt phantom power for condenser microphones

Recessed front panel gain pot with security cap — A continuous, rotary trim pot allows for precise setting of microphone input gain from +25 to +72 dB to accommodate various microphone signal levels. The pot is recessed on the front panel and can be concealed with a security cap to prevent unauthorized use.

Remote volume and mute control port — In basic installations without control systems, this port allows the MP 101 AAP to be remotely controlled using the optional Extron VCM 100 or VCM 200 Volume and Mute Controller or VC 50 Volume Controller.

XLR input for direct microphone connection

Mute button for microphone input muting with dual indicator LEDs — Easily allows the presenter to mute the microphone input. An LED reference gives visual feedback as to whether the mic is active or muted.

Selectable 75 Hz low cut filter — Reduces rumble and wind noise.
