Acquiring good sound and listening
   accurately to what is happening -
 arguably the most important things
you ever do in professional audio

 Probably the world’s most evolved microphone preamplifier, the m802 delivers functionality and performance that simply doesn’t exist in any other mic preamp design.

 The m802RCU can address, and seamlessly control, up to 8 remotely located m802 preamplifiers (that’s 64 channels), from up to 1000 feet away.

But that’s not all! The m802 can also be controlled directly from Digidesign® ProTools|HD® systems, compatible control surfaces and many other MIDI devices. Working closely with Digidesign®, Grace Design have adapted their control spec to directly address the m802 as an integrated part of a ProTools|HD® system. Additionally, the m802 can be controlled by a wide variety of MIDI mappable devices, making it easily integrated into a wide variety of remote recording situations.
