Great character PreAmp
Dr.Stephonik 05.09.2017
Hi all,
I have been using this pre in my studio for quite a few years now and even though I have far more expensive Pre's I still use the TPS II .
If you are looking for a pristine sound you may not get that but I love to use the OPL limiting to get harmonics and a bit of drive on my top and bottom snare.
I also find it warm and present on acoustic guitars.
The only issue I have had with it is that the lights over the meters dies last year. Other than that it still works a treat and is well worth stepping through presets for interesting sounds.

Tube Pre - I love it BUT...
The L.C.A Studio, UK 18.06.2013
I love everything about this unit, except one thing... the fact that the controls are mirrored! the Left channel is literally opposite to the right - which is so confusing in the heat of a session! the amount of times I have 'matched' the channels settings only to find that I haven't actually, because it's back to front!

however the sound of this unit is awesome - I have read lots on changing the tubes to a more expensive kind - though I have never felt the need as it is great as is!

Perfect for pumping final mixes through too!

I am very pleased with the built in limiter too - you really can squash the life out of things if you want to.

Good mic preamp
Jørg 12.01.2021
Using it in my home studio with the presets as pre EQ/comp for mics on amps, vocals etc.
Can add more than enough gain for all kind of mics, my previous solution did not enough oomph for some dynamic mics.
For it's price there is really nothing I don't like about the ART TPS II.

Excellent for the money
Dimitris Pantelidis 10.12.2019
For the money involved an excellent preamplifier for voice and middle frequencies in general, the sound can be tweaked , but the best results for all around mix can be found in the neutral setting. Remember to replace the inside tube with a higher quality one if you want the unit to show what is capable of. Very nice preamplifier for middle and higher frequencies, round sweet , tube sound.
Excellent for voice , guitars , synths whatever.. For Bass try a solid state or a transformer preamplifier. For all the rest for the money involved is a trully excellent unit
