Well, of course, the ULN-8 isn’t just a pre-amp: it happens to have eight very 
nice low-noise high-gain mic pre-amps  as part of the package, that’s all. 
Also, rather obviously, I didn’t buy the Tetramic and then the ULN-8. The ULN-8 
has been at the centre of my studio set-up for many years and has proved to be 
well worth the money.

Empirically, based on my own experiences, the two low-cost (sub-$1,000.00) 
multitrack portable recorders that I tried after initially purchasing the 
Tetramic, were noisy at high gain when attempting to record quieter sounds with 
the Tetramic. I found that this was not the case with the ULN-8 and also with 
the Sound Devices 788T. We shall see how the SD Mix-Pre 6 behaves when it 
eventually reaches these shores.

As always, other people may have different experiences, but their needs may not 
be the same as mine.

Regards,

John
