The Distressor is an automatic gain (or volume) control device (AGC in engineering terms) designed for pro audio (music) applications. Basically, it electronically controls the volume of just about any source in a very pleasing, and "musical" manner - adding fullness, intelligibility, and especially in the Distressor's case - excitement.This type of device is often called a "limiter" or "compressor" by audio industry people. Its most probable uses will be in recording studios, live sound situations, movie sound production, and radio broadcast production.

Thermionic Culture is celebrating its 20th anniversary with the launch of a limited edition Thermionic Culture Vulture 20A at the 2018 NAMM Show. The 20A differs from the original in that it has much lower background noise using Sowter transformers to balance line inputs and outputs and also indented pots for easy recall. The sound is nearly identical to the original except the top end is extended to far beyond audio range making it a great mastering tool. It still has the classic Culture Vulture distortion settings with an extra extreme position on the function switch.Originally designed as a "distortion box" to simulate distortion in valve amps, the Thermionic Culture Vulture has found lots of uses beyond this. Some owners use them on drum loops, vocals, piano sounds and even across entire tracks (it is a stereo unit). Distortion figures are reduced to only 0.2% at lowest to about 99.9%. Predominant distortion can be changed from even to odd harmonics with a simple switch.Features:Warm sounds gently or create a noise like a 200 watt guitar stack with all the drivers slashedIndependent channel operationOdd or even harmonic distortion, or combination of bothAll valve design free from solid state additivesHigh impedance line input or instrument inputs4 & 7 kHz filtersOverdrive & bypass switches
The WA-412 provides 4 channels of classic American console preamps in a sleek 1RU design. This style of preamp is often referred to as "the sound of Rock n' Roll" for its BIG punchy low end and smooth open top end. The price/performance ratio of the WA-412 is almost unfathomable to the experienced studio engineer who has possibly paid much more for preamps of this style during their career. Featuring fully discrete socketed 6-pin opamps and custom wound Altran USA input and output transformers, the WA-412 leaves nothing to be desired. If you are looking for multiple channels of world class tone in an affordable package, the WA-412 is the right choice for you.Inspiration behind the WA-412.When I first started holding regular studio sessions years ago I always desired to have more channels of high-end mic pre's. I could only afford to have one or two in my studio at a time, which was never enough to record a full band or drummer. I knew very well that if signals were not recorded well "on the way in" they wouldn't be salvageable later, but my budget constrained me. Because of this so many of the sources were recorded through poor-quality mic preamps. If the WA-412 was available back then I likely wouldn't have had to settle for poor, low-quality tone. The WA-412 was designed "for the people" (if you will) and we believe it will become a serious work-horse in many professional and home studios. - Bryce Young (founder)More features.The WA-412 has all of the features one would expect from this style of preamp... and more. Output Trim is available on every channel for precise control and creative gain structuring. A Tone switch (transformer input impedance) is also available on each channel, which allows you to choose between a warm and punchy classic console tone, or go for a more open & neutral sound.Better components.Each channel utilizes a fully discrete socketed 6-pin opamp that can be swapped with other opamps. Discrete opamp circuitry is known for its high headroom and low distortion characteristics and has much to do with the coveted sound of these classic console preamps. All input and output transformers that are made in the USA by high-end transformer manufacturer, Altran. We worked closely with Altran to create unique transformers that extend the low frequency response of these classic preamps. The transformers also use a vintage winding technique that produces a very distinct smooth BIG character. Carefully choosing the WA-412 components has resulted in an amazing four channel ‘workhorse’ preamp/DI that performs at the highest levels, while still adding vintage console magic to your signal.Specificaions:4 Channel Microphone Preamplifier + Instrument DIFully discrete, transformer coupled, through-hole component topologyAltran USA custom wound, premium input and output transformersX520 discrete op-amp in every channel, socketed for convenience.

Following on from the phenomenal success of The Fat Bustard summing mixer whose features include Attitude, EQ, stereo width, and of course a big fat sound, we find there’s a demand for a similar warm sounding summing mixer with more channels at a lower price, keeping the unique Attitude control.This new unit utilises the same input circuit and Attitude section as the Fat Bustard, using the same type twin triode valves.Instead of having eqs and Stereo Spread, etc., there is only the “AIR” control which works on the very high end. Because the unit contains no solid state in the audio path, the use of this control will enhance the sound with a lovely velvety sheen typical of the best all-valve equipment with none of the harshness found in some solid state units.The output stage is very similar to that of The Fat Bustard, except that for reasons of space and heat, smaller double triodes are employed. All valves are “mil spec” NOS types. The max output level is still well above +20 dBv, adequate for any DAW.All inputs and outputs are on XLRs, with inputs “semi floating” and outputs unbalanced. A balancing box containing 2 Sowter transformers is available if required at additional cost.Front panel :There are 8 toggle switches to switch in pairs of channels, and 2 more toggles to switch channels 13,14,15 & 16 to make 4 mono channels. AIR, a rotary pot, ATTITUDE, a 6 position switch, and a matched pair of pots controlling output levels. There’s also a mains power switch and of course the Little Red Bustard’s eyes light up and go bloodshot as the sound gets louder!Futures :All valve 16 input summing mixer;Each pair of inputs has its own on/off switch;Inputs 13 to 16 can be switched to centre;Attitude control adds musical 2nd harmonics;Air control increases high top end without solid state harshness;Frequency response extends well above and below audio range;Easily enough output to drive your DAW and very low noise;All inputs are “semi-floating” on XLRs;Outputs are unbalanced. A separate Balancing Box is an optional extra;Shares the same natural warmth as the Fat Bustard;Extremely low distortion (< 0.1%) before Attitude is added.

In the past, professional mics for stage vocalists were designed to boost the person’s voice, especially in rock and other types of electric music. It was the quantity of sound that mattered more than the quality!PA system technology has become considerably more sophisticated since then and performance has improved enormously. This means we need mics that are more neutral and that respect the natural timbre of the voice. With this in mind I wanted to create a new generation of dynamic mics that can keep up with the changing equipment, on stage as well as in a studio.Specifications:Element: DynamicPolar Pattern: Uni-directionalSensitivity: -55dB±3dB (0dB=1V/Pa at 1kHz)Frequency Response: 50Hz-16kHzOutput Impedance: 400Ω±30% at 1kHz.
The M-85 is strong, versatile, and fitted with an anti-shock copper mesh. Not only that, like almost all of Prodipe’s mics, it has been finished in rubber paint, giving an extra comfortable grip and improved noise reduction when handled.During the development of the Prodipe M-85, we placed a huge emphasis on obtaining perfect neutrality in the frequency response because we wanted to offer increased gain and at the same time, respect the rich harmonic content of the human voice.The M-85 is simple to use and manage with any type of equipment. The M-85’s new Prodipe cartridge, brought to fruition with plenty of input from Ludovic Lanen, uses a stunning mix of finesse and precision to restore the grain and colour of your voice.Specifications:Type: dynamicFrequency response : 50 Hz ~ 16 kHzPattern: uni-directionalSensitivity (0dB=1v/pa at 1kHz): - 71 ±3dBImpedance (at 1 kHz): 600 Ω ± 30%Weight: 42 g

The Phoenix HG 15 is a single channel version of our classic Phoenix Stereo Compressor, having the same gentle “variable mu” type compression curve, though it becomes near to a limiter at high compression levels.The gain has been boosted to suit mic inputs, particularly valve and FET condenser types, but many moving coil types, such as Shure, Audio Technica, etc. are fine to use if the sound source is quite loud or close-miked.With the Threshold switch set to Comp Out it’s a clean mic/line amp, now add a little Active Eq, “Presence” and/or “Air” to brighten the sound, then switch in some compression and achieve that gentle “super-natural” effect that only Thermionic Culture can give you.The Output Level control acts as a reverse linear attenuator after the electronics, and can be used simply to reduce level if feeding a low level input, or to add “Attitude” by reducing the output and increasing the input. If you’re working from line level, it’s OK to switch the input from “Line” to “Pad” but ensure the +48v switch is OFF!2 HG15s can be linked together for stereo use by a phono-phono lead from the Link socket at the rear. There’s a Side Chain Bass Cut switch, which can also be useful in mono operation. To sum up, The Phoenix HG15 is ideal as just a mic amp for vocals, violins, horns, guitars…… especially when using a high output mic like the U87. Then having the ability to add compression and a bit of eq.Features:High Gain Mic Amp/Compressor/EQ with super-natural valve sound;Based on Phoenix design with 52 dB gain available;Fully Balanced circuit with XLR in/out connectors;+48v Phantom power available;Threshold control has 7 way switch with Compressor Out position;Time Constant switch has 6 combinations of Attack & Release;Side Chain Bass Cut;Presence and Air switches to boost mid and high top with In/Out switch;Bass Cut to roll off low bass;2 valves, 6AQ8EH input and 12AT7/ECC81 output;Solid State side chain! ;Link socket to connect 2 HGs for stereo buss operation, etc.

This Special Limited Edition Fat Bustard II is introduced for those purists who want the facilities of the Fat Bustard summing mixer (special equalisation for the mix, stereo width, bass to centre) but a little less colourisation and even lower distortion and noise, though not as much max “Attitude”. The top response now extends to 50+ kHz with consequently less phase shift.It uses 12AY7 double triode input valves in place of 5965s. Both Fat Bustards have exactly the same 14 inputs, and same controls. The black more Aggressive Fat Bustard continues to be made, so the user has a choice until all the Green ones have been sold. Both are the same price.The updated version of the hugely popular Fat Bustard now includes in master section a INT/EXT switch and a pair of associated rear mounted jack inputs for attaching a playback device to route through the monitor buss. This can also be used to check the effects of a Phoenix compressor that has been connected to the output of the Fat Bustard. The level of the EXT signal can be adjusted via the rear mounted trim pot.More than just a straight summing mixer, this new offering provides sound shaping possibilities too, with a simple yet powerful bass ( 50Hz ) and treble ( 10kHz ), Stereo Width and Depth controls, and the new ‘Attitude’ distortion section. The inputs are arranged as 4x stereo pairs and 4 mono, all with mutes, the mono inputs also have pan pots too. Two additional Aux inputs are provided for echo returns and the optional forthcoming Little Bustard 16 channel expander.

The 3u 19" Earlybird 4 has a unique valve design, in that it uses Class A bias valves in a push-pull circuit.Company founder and chief designer Vic Keary believes that this is one of the finest pre-amplifiers available today, and despite their use for distortion in poweramps, valves have better distortion and lower noise than solid state amps. Due to specially designed Sowter transformers the Earlybird 4 boasts well under .01% distortion, as Vic explains "it's like connecting a pair of wires with gain to your mic, it's so clean!"It has a very high output level of +32dB and if desired, 2nd order harmonics can be introduced by increasing mic gain and reducing output gain.The unit has switched gain controls with a maximum of 62dB of mic gain and a variable output along with pads, phase and stepped filter. A pair of meters can be switched between 1 & 2 and 3 & 4.
The Grimm Audio LS1 is the most technologically advanced loudspeaker system ever!A good monitor combines a high degree of accuracy with untrammeled musicality. There aren't many of those around - common wisdom has it that you can have one or the other but never both. The LS1 is the first monitor to prove conventional wisdom wrong.By integrating top quality digital signal processing, converters and amplifiers in one of the speakers' legs, Grimm Audio was able to apply technical strategies no one had used before. As a consequence, the LS1 is not just a loudspeaker, but a complete audio system that only needs an analog or digital line source to perform.“This speaker is explicitly for those who want the most neutral and transparent sound reproduction, no corners were cut.”True accuracy is about getting all the bits in the right place: not losing anything, not adding anything either. The LS1 offers this accuracy, reproducing a truly musical recording accurately, with all beauty intact. At the same time, the LS1 will also reproduce any imperfection, giving you all the information you need to get it right. These qualities make the LS1 an ideal monitor for both mastering and mixing.Don't let the stylish industrial design and finish fool you: the shape of this loudspeaker is the outcome of thorough psychoacoustical and acoustical research. Its small sealed box (14 litres) is much wider than it is deep, is designed to provide an effective baffle down to around 250 Hz.That way, the LS1 achieves a reasonable constant directivity in 2π space above 250 Hz (with a natural and progressive “narrowing” of its high frequency off-axis response) minimizing many of the listening room’s detrimental effects (Psychoacoustics tells us that below about 300 Hz the ear will no longer clearly discern direct sound, first reflections or reverberant sound), while below 250 Hz the speaker gradually transitions to omnidirectional.“The wide baffle halves the volume into which the sound is radiated, thereby halving room problems as well. The cylindrical sides eliminate the classical "big box" colouration that is caused by edge diffractions.”The LS1 is suspended between two half cylinders that combat diffraction and function as an integral two-legged floor stand. An 8" magnesium woofer and a 1" dome tweeter divide the work between them. Smart use of DSP linearizes the frequency response and allows for a controlled bass response down to 35 Hz.Housed in one of the two legs are a 48/76-bit DSP, digital I/O, AD/DA converters, the same clock circuit as Grimm’s own CC1 master clock and the drive electronics, encompassing two 180W Class D power amplifiers of the groundbreaking Hypex NCore type.The concept of the LS1 draws maximum benefit from intelligent application of DSP technology. An IIR crossover imposes exact LR4 acoustic slopes crossing at 1550 Hz, and the phase is subsequently corrected using an idealised inverted all-pass filter, resulting in a maximally linear phase response without any pre-echo’s. This removes the “digital loudspeaker sound signature” typical of the more ubiquitous impulse inverted FIR designs.“The waveguide tweeter, the perfectly pistonic woofer (both by the world famous Seas company) and the very low crossover frequency insure that the sound is radiated in an unusually wide and even manner.Grimm LS1’s carefully controlled acoustics form the basis for the active DSP based filter which welds the driver responses together into the most even-handed frequency response and the fastest impulse response you'll ever hear.”The LS1 is also a very practical loudspeaker. Its digital input allows them to be connected without further ado to network players like Squeezebox or Sonos, or to a Mac or PC using the included USB converter. The pictures on the right hand show a few options.Despite their compact size, these floor standing speakers are clearly intended as main monitors in mastering studios and mixing rooms that have space to put free-standing speakers. The DSP controlled analog subwoofer output allows for easy integration with stereo subwoofers, for those that need high SPL performance below 40 Hz.By selecting Grimm’s own LS1s subwoofers, perfect integration with the main system is obtained, effectively turning the LS1 into a threeway system.More info can be found at the LS1 remote and the LS1s subwoofer page.For Measurement Charts (both in-house and third party – German Audio Magazine’s May 2013 issue) and photos of the LS1 please refer to the pictures section of this page.Features:Unidirectional down to 250 HzDSP controlled frequency curveWell-behaved off-axis responseDigital and analog audio inputsFiltered analog subwoofer outputFail safe due to excursion and thermal limiterMidi control of volume and settingsSuper low distortion NCore class D power ampsAudiophile quality Seas driversRemote control optionDifferent color scheme options Specifications:· Frequency response: 55Hz-30kHz +/-0.5dB. 45Hz-40kHz -3dB(Low corner is user-settable between 35 Hz and 100 Hz, Q=0.7 or 0.5)With the addition of the LS1s Subwoofers, the LS1 can perform almost down to the infrasonic range· Deviation from minimum phase +/-2°· Amplifier power: 2x180W· Max SPL: 109dB/1m· SNR: 114dB (unweighted)· Crossover function: 1.55 kHz LR4, sum corrected to minimum phase.· Latency: 2ms· Internal volume: 14 litres· Height: 1150mm, 1450mm - available on demand.· Width, depth: 520mm X 160mmFurther Resources:· Download the LS1 PC remote software
Thermionic Culture have released a new version of the Mastering valve compressor, the Mastering Plus. The classic hand built point to point wired soft knee compressor has a compression ratio from 1.2:1 to 5:1 at 15dB of compression and uses Mullard and Siemens valves and custom Sowter transformers.Following on from the success of the previous models including the red face anniversary limited edition the new model features new switched and stepped rotary controls for quick and easy recall. The input gain features a 24 position ELMA, a 11 position ELMA for the Threshold, 6 position ALPHA attack and release and a 31 position OMEG stepped output pot. The same side chain filter section as previous versions has been retained. The Phoenix is a stereo compressor, which can be used as a pair of mono compressors. It has a ‘soft knee’ or ‘variable mu’ characteristic in that the compression ratio increases with the amount of compression being used. Initial compression is 1.2:1 increasing to 5:1 at 15dB compression.The Phoenix is being updated continually and this unit is the Master version (suffix M) with higher stability and faster release than earlier models. A side chain filter has now been added to provide 75Hz & 150Hz, but more permutations are possible when the MC is used in stereo mode with the link switch engaged.The Master Phoenix is easier to recall as it has a mixture of indented and switched controls and the screwdriver adjustment on the chassis behind the meters controls the current through the valves on this unit, so this corrects to some extent for valve ageing. A screwdriver is supplied with the Master Phoenix and should be used periodically to adjust the meters to zeroStepped Input & Output controls * 6 position switched attack control * 7 position switched release control * 11 position switched threshold control

The FC 1 MKII was designed with classic large diaphragm condenser microphones in mind. We wanted to make an affordable mic with some of the characteristics of the good old German models. The FC 1 has a center-terminated capsule just like in the old days, adding some harmonic distortion and a sweet top to the sound. This design also gives the mic an ability to handle louder sounds without harshness or other problems. The output transformer can handle bass really well and still give you that extra fat sound that only tubes and transformers can deliver. The retro EQ in the FC 1 is set to deliver maximum sound quality with as many sound sources as possible at a price anyone can afford. It sounds great on vocals, acoustic guitar, percussion, amps, piano, leslie, drums, and more.

.Lipinski power amplifiers are dual topology, which means there are two separate power amplifiers Inside. Our state-of-the-art power amplification uses dual topology: we employed dual mono design not only for the stereo amp, but also for our monoblocks. This is to control one parameter which has substantial influance on the perception of quality: the damping factor. This one controls the speed and accuracy of lowest frequencies, resulting in very tight and controlled bass. This configuration also significantly lowers distortion.The L-401 monoblock, due to the same dual topology design as the subwoofer amp, can be used in biamplificaion mode. Bi-amp mode increases microdynamics. The L-401 can also be switched for bridged mode, allowing for 600 Watts of unfettered power per channel.Since we believe that the best speaker cable is short cable, the L-401 is designed to be built into our speaker stand, making up the L-3601 Powered Stand.The stand fits directly underneath the L-707A Monitors.Be sure to check out our Reviews section for the latest review of our Monoblock, against Pass Labs and Bryston.SpecificationsOutput power: 1 channels: 200W @ 8ohms, 300W @ 4ohms,Gain: 30/35dB,Bandwidth: 1Hz–50kHz -3db,Integrated high pass filter optimized for L-505A/L-707,THD+noise: 0.01% THD @ 50W,

Originally designed as a "distortion box" to simulate distortion in valve amps it has found lots of uses beyond this. We know that some owners use them on drum loops, vocals, piano sounds and even across entire tracks (it is a stereo unit). We have refined this so that distortion figures are reduced to only 0.2% at lowest to about 99.9% (at least that's what our distortion meter tells us!). Predominant distortion can be changed from even to odd harmonics with a simple switch. FeaturesWarm sounds gently or create a noise like a 200 watt guitar stack with all the drivers slashed.Independent channel operationOdd or even harmonic distortion, or combination of bothAll valve design free from solid state additives.

The Pullet is a passive equaliser originally designed to complement the Earlybird pre-amp. The Pullet will provide a variable Q boost at 11 frequencies of 21 dB and simultaneously a cut at 11 frequencies of 21dB. In addition high top can be boosted or cut with a shelving filter. The Earlybird will provide the gain makeup required after a line level signal has been passed through the pullets passive EQ network. This provides an excellent arrangement due to the fact that the passive EQ of the pullet gives full control over any midrange frequencies whilst the active EQ of the Earlybird can give a smooth sounding control over the bass and top frequencies. The fact is that passive EQ can give a much better result when radically boosting or cutting mid frequencies with a tight Q than active EQ can ever do. Its possible to boost a narrow band of midrange by 21dB with a musical sounding result using the pullets passive network whereas an active EQ may well start to sound harsh and begin to ring. The pullet has lately been re-designed in order to allow it to be used with any preamp available. The preamp will need to give between 38 to 40 dB of gain makeup and it ideally will have an input impedance of 1200 . A range of commercially available preamps have been used during testing of the pullet and all have given excellent results. The high input impedance (10k) of the Pullet means that it will give optimum performance when placed in a chain after any piece of equipment. The mid boost frequencies are: 800 Hz 3.5 KHz 1.2 KHz 4.4 KHz 1.6 KHz 5 KHz 2 KHz 6.3 KHz 2.5 KHz 8.5 KHz 3 KHz The mid cut frequencies are: 230 Hz 2 KHz 340 Hz 2.8 KHz 500 Hz 4 KHz 700 Hz 6 KHz 1 KHz 8 KHz 1.4 KHz The air control will shelve as a lift from 15 KHz, 12 KHz and 10 KHz. It will cut from 15 KHz, 11 KHz and 6 KHz.
As the computer increasingly becomes the de-facto tool for audio production, the need for the traditional large format console becomes muted, while the need for a high quality studio monitor controller becomes more and more vital. Enter our new m906 high fidelity 5.1 monitor controller. The original concept for building the m906 was simply to provide a high fidelity level control for engineers working with 5.1 surround playback systems. From there, however, we became blissfully carried away and ultimately obsessed with creating the most full featured and highest quality monitor controller available. So at its core, the m906 is a purist level control for monitoring surround audio sources. But a closer look reveals a totally comprehensive feature set that makes this system the essential nerve center for any large recording facility centered around a high-definition digital audio workstation.

Introducing the MicroSub45. Featuring Barefoot Sound’s innovative Dual-Force™ technology, the MicroSub45 brings the MicroMain45 to new power and depths. The subwoofers boasts dual-opposing 8” subs in each of the two cabinets. The MicroMain45 has turned into a cult speaker that musicians love. A common request from users since the release of the MicroMain45 is for Barefoot Sound to build a companion subwoofer. So Barefoot has built a subwoofer as an off-the-menu item. But as demands have been overwhelming, it’s time to bring this product into the light.Introducing the MicroSub45 featuring Barefoot Sound’s innovative Dual-Force™ technology The MicroSub45 brings the MicroMain45 to new power and depths with a pair of dual-opposing 8” subs in each cabinet and Dual-Force™ Technology.The MicroMain45 is the only Barefoot that doesn’t feature Dual-Force™ Technology. But now there is a path for MicroMain45 users who want to take it to the next level. Or if you’re interested in a pair of MicroMain45s and want the option to upgrade down the road as your needs grow, this is the perfect solution!The MicroMain45s can be placed on top or below the MicroSub45, depending on your preference. The tilt feature allows the MM45 to be positioned down to the listening sweet spot and it is designed so that the stack is very sturdy and will not slip.The subwoofers is the MicroSub45s. When packaged with the MicroMain45s, it becomes the MicroStack45. The stack features six high excursion 8” drivers, all designed to work seamlessly together and as a single unit. Each MicroSub45 features analog crossovers which allows analog signal paths into the sub and also into the MicroMain45. It crosses over at 80hz and goes down to 25hz.Features:Comes in a pairDual 8” subs in each cabinetDual-Force™ Technology1000 Watts of PowerBass response down to 25HzBalanced analog High-Pass filterSpecifications:Crossover Frequency: 80 HzSubwoofers: Dual 8″ aluminum cone with high linearity motor, +/- 13 mm linear excursionAmplifier: 500W in each cabinetAC Power Input: 85 VAC to 265 VACPower Consumption: Idle: 5W, Maximum: 765WWeight: Speaker: 45 lbs each (20.5 kg)Shipping: 54.5 lbs each (25 kg)Dimensions HxWxD: Cabinet: 14.0 x 9.5 x 13.0 inches (356 x 241 x 330 mm)Overall: 14.0 x 10.25 x 13.6 inches (356 x 260 x 345 mm)
Following on from the phenomenal success of The Fat Bustard summing mixer whose features include Attitude, EQ, stereo width, and of course a big fat sound, we find there’s a demand for a similar warm sounding summing mixer with more channels at a lower price, keeping the unique Attitude control. Enter The Purple Bustard.This new unit utilises the same input circuit and Attitude section as the Fat Bustard, using the same type twin triode valves.Instead of having eqs and Stereo Spread, etc., there is only the “AIR” control which works on the very high end. Because the unit contains no solid state in the audio path, the use of this control will enhance the sound with a lovely velvety sheen typical of the best all-valve equipment with none of the harshness found in some solid state units.The output stage is very similar to that of The Fat Bustard, except that for reasons of space and heat, smaller double triodes are employed. All valves are “mil spec” NOS types. The max output level is still well above +20 dBv, adequate for any DAW. All inputs and outputs are on XLRs, with inputs “semi floating” and outputs unbalanced. A balancing box containing 2 Sowter transformers is available if required at additional cost.Front panel:There are 8 toggle switches to switch in pairs of channels, and 2 more toggles to switch channels 13,14,15 & 16 to make 4 mono channels. AIR, a rotary pot, ATTITUDE, a 6 position switch, and a matched pair of pots controlling output levels. There’s also a mains power switch and of course The Purpl Bustard’s eyes light up and go bloodshot as the sound gets louder!The frequency response goes well above and below audio range until the Attitude is set to at or near max, similarly other specs are practically the same as The Fat Bustard, except cross-talk, phase shift and signal to noise are slightly better as there is no eq. etc. Features:All valve 16 input summing mixer;Each pair of inputs has its own on/off switch;Inputs 13 to 16 can be switched to centre;Attitude control adds musical 2nd harmonics;Air control increases high top end without solid state harshness;Frequency response extends well above and below audio range;Easily enough output to drive your DAW and very low noise;All inputs are “semi-floating” on XLRs;Outputs are unbalanced. A separate Balancing Box is an optional extra;Shares the same natural warmth as the Fat Bustard;Extremely low distortion (< 0.1%) before Attitude is added.
