API 3124V

4-Channel Microphone Preamp

Rupert Street Recording, Mixing, ATMOS & Video Production in Waterloo, ON, Canada

Bold tone. Legendary punch. Studio workhorse.

The API 3124V delivers four channels of the classic API 312 mic preamp circuitry in a compact rack unit—perfect for tracking drums, guitars, vocals, and just about anything else that needs clarity with attitude. With its signature fast transients, tight low end, and unmistakable mid-forward punch, it’s a trusted tool at Rupert Street Recording for capturing performances with energy and presence. The variable output control adds extra flexibility, allowing you to drive the input for warmth while keeping levels under control.

Based on the same design as the legendary API console preamps, the 312 preamp series has been used on classic records by artists like The Rolling Stones, Radiohead, and The White Stripes—known for delivering that unmistakable “American rock” sound.
