Joe Meek ThreeQ Preamp Customer Review

Feature:
it has phantom power, compressor and 3 band eq. I find the comp a bit strong, it's best to use it at small amounts. It has a fixed ratio. The eq is pretty nice, even though it does not have q selection but never needed. Quite enough for determining the general sound. With a nice mic, no hesitation.

Quality:
this unit is metal covered, quality knobs and leds. Small sized and light weighted, so easy to carry.

Value:
according to money paid, this unit totally worths. Especially if you also have a transparent preamp, this may be a nice alternative coloring preamp.

Sound:
the sound is warm enough, there's s small amount of coloration at low mid area. It's not a high end product but results are very stable. If it had much open sound i'd appreciate more, but also the money paid for is totally worth it.

Ease of Use:
Very easy to use, no need to diving into manual.

Support:
never needed a support

Overall:
Even if it is not "the best" , it gives a nice sound to your mixes. I strongly recomend for beginners. The price is acceptable for it's sound and quality. Even if you buy a better preamp in the future, you'd still want to keep this.

The Joemeek threeQ is like having one channel of a professional recording studio in a small box. It takes a microphone or instrument, amplifies it, compresses and equalizes it ready to be recorded. Simple to use yet extremely powerful, the threeQ will bring out the best in any microphone or instrument and give the gloss of a professional studio production to all your performances. As well as recording it will also be found useful for live work.
