Cinema Quality Sound

Transform Your Camera for Powerhouse Audio Recording

Easily add professional balanced XLR microphones or wireless devices to your camera for cinematic sound. The powerful low-noise preamplifiers with phantom power give you 100dB of dynamic range for exceptionally clean audio. Robust chassis and electronics ensure outstanding durability and reliability – all wrapped up in a compact package that will fit easily on your rig. Get connected to the DXA-PRE to see what it can do for your cinema camera.

Audio Bracketing

Setup a Second Channel for Backup

A very useful feature allows you to use audio bracketing when using a single mono microphone to have a backup channel that is recorded at a lower level. This gives you a safety track in case the primary channel gets distorted from an overly hot input. This effectively eliminates the need for any limiters which can add their own type of distortion.

Snap On and Go

Super Compact and Easily Mountable

Tiny and light weight so it won’t weigh down your rig. The chassis is only 3.69″ x 3.15″ x 1.46″ and weighs 12 ounces. No hassle mount – easily snap on or off with the included V-CLIK Quick Release accessory. Pure simplicity, functionality, performance.
