That aside, using the proper mic's and good mic technique that matches production is really more important than the pre.

On Todd AO's Dub stage one they have a Digitech VTP1- The DFC doesn't have built in mic pres (at least that one doesnt)

I guess that is good enough...

On a more serious note, the Sound Devices Pres are used by a lot of field guys- the MixPre can be had for about $800.00
