DIGITAL MPA II OVERVIEW – FEATURES AND
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The ART DIGITAL MPA II microphone preamplifier features a new low noise, high performance
preamplification circuitry, designed for superior audio fidelity. Building upon the quality and success of
great sounding products like the Pro MPA and MPA GOLD, ART engineers set out to develop the
next generation of professional microphone preamplifier. The DIGITAL MPA II is the culmination of
years of research and development, and sets a new standard for quality and value. Professional
features and spectacular tone are what make the DIGITAL MPA II a world-class microphone pream-
plifier. Its impressive feature set includes:
• Variable input impedance for flexible microphone voicing (150 Ohms to 2400 Ohms).
• Selectable plate voltage
• Large VU meters
• Front accessible meter trim
• Selectable between output level and tube warmth
• Improved discrete class A input microphone preamplifier
• Lower noise at low gains
• Lower THD
• Wider frequency response
• Front accessible Instrument Input Jack
• Very high input impedance
• Mid/Side micing support
• +4dBm/-10dBV output level selection
• Automatically switches to the instrument input when you plug in
The DIGITAL MPA II also features digital connectivity for use with various digital processors and
digital recording devices. The Digital interface supports the following features and functions:
• 24-204KHz External sample rate
• 44.1K, 48K, 88.2K, 96K, 176.4K, 192K Internal sample rates
• 24/16 bit switchable dithering
• Wide dynamic range A/D
• Rotary Encoder for quick selection of sample rate
• Separate analog and digital output level controls
• Digital Level LED meters display both Average and Peak level.
• ADAT optical I/O
• Sync to incoming ADAT data rate
• Switch selectable optical output (S/PDIF or ADAT)
• AES/EBU and S/PDIF outputs
• Two wordclock jacks allowing loop through

The signal path of the DIGITAL MPA II consists of a discrete class A microphone pre-amp followed by
a Low Cut Filter, a balanced differential tube circuit with a 20dB Gain switch and then the phase
switch. At this point the signal passes to both the analog output and the Insert jacks. The insert jacks
allow processing of the signal before its’ level is adjusted by the Digital Level control and passed to
the A/D. You can use the A/D converters of the DIGITAL MPA II independent of the analog functions
by simply inserting a signal into this insert point!
The DIGITAL MPA II is an attractively styled processor, with a black anodized front panel and match-
ing knobs. The switches on the DIGITAL MPA II are backlit and illuminate when depressed.

FRONT PANEL CONNECTIONS AND CONTROLS
Figure 2 – Front controls
Input Gain control
This control optimizes the input signal level before the tube gain is applied. Both Microphone and
Instrument input gains remain the same and are affected by this adjustment. Input gain can be ad-
justed from 0dB (for line level signals) to 40dB of gain.
The analog meters are used to see the effects of the input gain setting.
Additional gain is available via the Gain switch (+20dB) and the Analog Output control (+10dB) for a
maximum of 70dB total.
The combination of these controls allows the user to adjust the signal level through the tube section,
providing more or less “tube” sound as needed. To obtain more “tube’ sound, increase input gain, use
the +20dB Gain switch, “normal” plate voltage, and less Analog output gain.
Both the microphone and instrument inputs are optimized for their respective sources as far as signal
levels and noise performance. Running most of the gain on the input generally provides the best
performance of the DIGITAL MPA II. Refer to the section titled “Obtaining the best noise performance
4
with the DIGITAL MPA II for more detailed instructions on setting the Input Gain control for the best
results.
Input Impedance control
This knob controls the Mic/line input amplifier impedance. This function allows variable voicing of any
microphone.
Refer to the application section titled “Adjusting the Input Impedance” for more information on making
the most of this function.
The ¼” instrument input is NOT affected by this control, and remains high (>1M Ohm) impedance.
Low Cut Filter control
The Low Cut Filter is a single tuned High Pass Filter that is frequency tunable. The input signal can
be filtered to remove “pops” or other extraneous low frequency information. This control moves the
rolloff frequency from 10 Hz (fully CCW) to 200 Hz (fully CW). Since it is single tuned, it preserves
some low frequency content so its use is less obtrusive. It is especially useful in close mic’d applica-
tions.
Gain switch
The Gain switch is used in conjunction with the input gain control to adjust signal levels through the
DIGITAL MPA II. When depressed, the tube circuit provides 20dB more gain in the signal path. This
also has the effect of driving the tube harder and making the tube the dominant source of gain and
overload character.
