OK, here's a nice little tidbit for the techies in here, if anyone wants
it - I've got a couple of these little Tubey mic preamps:

Which you will see have a 'third knob' for 'ART's new V3 (Variable Valve
Voicing) Technology'...???
I've always ignored it and used it 'Flat' but what does it do? What's
actually happening/being done to the signal when it is turned through the
various 'instruments'? (I'll have to have a fiddle with it sometime!)
There's more info on this eBay auction for a similar item:

Also, see: 'Excellent as a Tube DI XLR and 1/4" Inputs' - does this mean I
would/could run a keyboard or (dare I suggest it) a digital piano through
one of these with some expectations of success?
(Swim's joanna is buzzing due to splits in the soundboard, apparently -
might mean summat digital is a quick and easy solution for simple backing
trax for the time being, if and when necessary!!)
TIA, as usual.....
