I've been reading threads about preamps. 'Danger Will Robinson, Danger!' I have a Quad-Capture, but mainly want to know if the preamps on an audio interface can actually be bypassed, ever. Here's what I think I've read.... With a dedicated mic preamp first in the chain, line-out to an audio interfac..
