Lake People F355

Dual-Channel Microphone Preamplifier – Lake People F355

Preamplifier for Professional Recording Environments

The Lake People F355 is a dual-channel microphone preamplifier designed for audio applications that demand high precision and low noise. It is intended for studio recording, broadcasting, and other professional situations where a neutral and reliable front-end is required.

Flexible Configuration and Precise Level Control

With two independent gain channels, the F355 allows simultaneous use of multiple microphones without compromising audio quality. The gain can be finely adjusted to suit different microphone types and signal levels, enabling precise control in recording scenarios.

Low-Noise Electronic Design

The preamplifier is built with ultra-low noise circuitry, ensuring clear audio reproduction even at high gain levels. Inputs and outputs are balanced via XLR, providing strong interference resistance and high signal integrity in professional setups.

Rugged Construction for Studio and Field Use

The F355 is housed in a metal 19-inch rackmount chassis (1U), built to withstand daily use in both studio and mobile environments. In addition to gain control, the unit features variable low-cut filtering, pad, phase inversion, and phantom power.
