14 INSERT

This stereo jack socket allows you to connect external devices, such as a compressor or

EQ, for dynamic signal processing.

For connection, use a "Y" cable with a TRS stereo connector wired as follows:

tip (T) - send, ring (R) - return, sleeve (S) - common ground, then connect the external

device using two unbalanced connectors, one for the input and one for the output.

15 DC INPUT

Connect here the external power supply unit supplied with preamp.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

We recommend that the preamp is positioned on a flat surface in a well-ventilated room,

making sure that the valve cooling slots are unobstructed and not in contact with any

surfaces. Before connecting the power supply cable to the power input socket, turn the

Input and Out knobs to -∞ and check that +48V phantom power is switched off. Power

on the preamp and then connect the microphone or instrument cable to the Input socket.

Adjust the Input and Out knobs so that the CLIP LED on the VU meter lights up with very

loud signals. The central preset selector allows you to control the level of tube saturation

to colour the sound of the input source. You can choose from 16 different settings divided

into the following:

COLD - to retain the natural sound of the input instrument/voice. Almost linear response

without any significant tonal colouration.

WARM - to emphasize the presence of the input instrument/voice. Response with enhanced,

more incisive loudness.

WARM + GAIN REDUCTION - For situations where the input signal is very loud and close to

distortion (effect of proximity or very rapid changes in signal amplitude). Response similar

to WARM presets.

COLD + GAIN REDUCTION - For situations where the input signal is very loud and close to

distortion (effect of proximity or very rapid changes in signal amplitude). Response similar

to COLD presets.
