Here is preamp from mic to high line level with gain control, designed for an
unbalanced close in mic, with top lift & bass cut controls. As it is for close
in mic very low noise it not needed, but a good bass roll off is.

SPECIFICATION
   GAIN.....    5 to 50 times.
   TREBLE LIFT  @ 15KHz  0dB to +15dB
   BASS CUT     @ 100Hz -3dB to -15dB
   I/P Z        5kê suitable for any low Z mic.
   NOISE...     Very low for 1/2 of a simple low noise op amp.
   POWERING     +8V to +36V DC powering @ 3 - 5mA (C6 voltage!)
   RFI          OK for reasonable levels, eg Cellphones/VHF/HF radio.

WHAT DOES WHAT
R6 & C6 decouple the supply & make sure it is quiet to feed into R1.
C1 is a low noise I/P cap, just big enough to let though 100Hz @ -3dB.
   for flatter low bass use C1 = 5uF.
R1 + R2 Bias the amp to 1/2 power rail & determin the I/P Z.
L1 near IC is 10 turns on a ferrite bead & with C5 forms a RF low pass filter.
IC1 is low noise, only 1/2 used here, making pins 3 & 4 ideal for C5.
R5 + 50K Gain with R4, set the gain 5 to 50. (50 is max if U want treble lift)
C2 & R4 give minimum bass roll off. (as did C1). For flatter bass use C2 = 100u
C3 & Bass Cut control give up to -6dB/O additional bass cut.
C4 & R3 + Treble Lift Control, give up to +6dB/O treble boost.
C7 DC decouples output.
R7 sets the output Z to 68ê & gives some protection to the IC.
R8 discharges C7 if needed.
