Mic Pres

Uses Class-A mic preamplifier design developed and optimized by legend David Dearden over the course of 18 years

Retro Channels

Adds harmonics to the signal for creating tones most often associated with 1960s tube designs and the coveted transformer zing of British audio from the 1970s

HMX MOSFET Drive

Produces asymmetrical harmonic distortion, giving you the option to add richness and body to the pristine tone of the mic preamp

IRON Magnetic Transformer Drive

Uses a custom British transformer with a high-voltage MOSFET drive network designed to recreate the signature of a 1970s recording with one control that simultaneously alters drive impedance, bass response, high-frequency damping, phase shift, magnetic saturation, and transient shaping to add sparkle and growl to the signal

Plug and Play

As well as eight channels of mic pres, the unit features two harmonically rich JFET DI inputs to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier

Built To Last

Features hand-milled aluminum knobs and an all-metal enclosure
