With the wave-form mesh, the head will distort to take the energy away from a heavy knock, but can be easily returned to it's normal position, without any damage at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in Pop Filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAston Microphones also feature a built in pop filter that's even better than most filters on the market.

The mic offers a choice of 3 different polar patterns (Omni, Cardioid and Figure of 8) via a switch on the front. This gives the mic the versatility to record in a variety of environments.

Mesh heads have always been the first line of defence for your mic, but a heavy knock will at the least leave an unsightly disfiguring to the mesh itself. With the wave-form mesh, the head will distort to take the energy away from a heavy knock, but can be easily returned to it's normal position, without any damage at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in Pop Filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAston Microphones also feature a built in pop filter that's even better than most filters on the market.

It also shields against electromagnetic radiation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other great thing about having a filter integrated into your mic is that it offers automatic protection from the outside world. its stainless steel mesh cage protects from unwanted moisture, grime and dust and can even be removed from the mic and washed; ensuring your mic will be clean and fresh and last a very long time!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn-built shock absorbtion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element inside the Origin has been designed with it's own shock absorbant design, meaning that the mic is inherently much more resistant to any minor lumps and bumps that could get into your recordings.

Unlike the Shelford Channel's vintage-style topology that utilizes a mic input transformer, the 5211 utilizes a fully transformerless input stage that optimizes signal clarity direct from the microphone. Combined with the more intense saturation from its variable Silk circuit and custom output transformer’s lower-headroom tap, the 5211 can produce tones ranging from warm and fat to breathtakingly clear and detailed. Simply put: the Rupert Neve Designs 5211 delivers the best of vintage and modern.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe 5211's balanced mic input employs a Transformer-like Amplifier (TLA) scheme to capture microphone signals as purely as possible. With the 48-volt phantom power switched off, this input performs as an ultra-high-quality line input with an impedance of 9k ohms. Each channel features 72dB of extremely low-noise, low-distortion gain controlled with a 6dB-stepped switch and a continuously variable ±6dB Trim. Switchable polarity reverse, 48-volt phantom power, and a swept 20Hz–250Hz highpass filter are available to further control the input, with a Silk control available for the outputs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilk! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Silk?\u003c\/strong\u003e In brief, Silk is a tonal option applied within the unit’s output stage that manipulates the signal’s harmonic content to create the sonic character associated with Rupert Neve’s vintage modules.

Unlike the Shelford Channel's vintage-style topology that utilizes a mic input transformer, the 5211 utilizes a fully transformerless input stage that optimizes signal clarity direct from the microphone. Combined with the more intense saturation from its variable Silk circuit and custom output transformer’s lower-headroom tap, the 5211 can produce tones ranging from warm and fat to breathtakingly clear and detailed. Simply put: the Rupert Neve Designs 5211 delivers the best of vintage and modern.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe 5211's balanced mic input employs a Transformer-like Amplifier (TLA) scheme to capture microphone signals as purely as possible. With the 48-volt phantom power switched off, this input performs as an ultra-high-quality line input with an impedance of 9k ohms. Each channel features 72dB of extremely low-noise, low-distortion gain controlled with a 6dB-stepped switch and a continuously variable ±6dB Trim. Switchable polarity reverse, 48-volt phantom power, and a swept 20Hz–250Hz highpass filter are available to further control the input, with a Silk control available for the outputs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilk! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Silk?\u003c\/strong\u003e In brief, Silk is a tonal option applied within the unit’s output stage that manipulates the signal’s harmonic content to create the sonic character associated with Rupert Neve’s vintage modules.

To achieve this, the blend control should be selected as fully DI (blend off), and an internal jumper can be selected to apply the compressor to the mic pre signal. When engaged, Silk mode would effect both vocal and guitar tracks, and the HPF control would effect only the mic path.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlended Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eUsed as a single channel device for instruments, the 5017 can be used to phase align, combine and compress direct and amplified signals. To achieve this, use the DI for the instrument’s direct signal and the mic preamp for the speaker cabinet signal. The blend control is used for mixing direct and amplified signals to achieve the desired tonal blend between the two sources, and the variphase is used to minimize or extenuate phase cancellations between the two signals. To compress the blended signal, the internal compressor jumper must be set to the blend path (this is the default setting). This technique could also be used to create a single, mixed output of a guitar and vocals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Compressor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBased around a new LDR (light dependent resister) design, the 5017’s opto-coupler compressor has been simplified to a single threshold control with auto make up gain. By default, the compressor is set to a fixed 2:1 ratio with an internal jumper to change between standard and fast time constants. To set the compressor, simply dial the threshold control down until the desired amount of compression is achieved. An LED light indicates when the compressor is active.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVari-Phase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eIn addition to the standard polarity reverse, the 5017 also incorporates a vari-phase control to adjust the phase incrementally.

To achieve this, use the DI for the instrument’s direct signal and the mic preamp for the speaker cabinet signal. The blend control is used for mixing direct and amplified signals to achieve the desired tonal blend between the two sources, and the variphase is used to minimize or extenuate phase cancellations between the two signals. To compress the blended signal, the internal compressor jumper must be set to the blend path (this is the default setting). This technique could also be used to create a single, mixed output of a guitar and vocals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Compressor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBased around a new LDR (light dependent resister) design, the 5017’s opto-coupler compressor has been simplified to a single threshold control with auto make up gain. By default, the compressor is set to a fixed 2:1 ratio with an internal jumper to change between standard and fast time constants. To set the compressor, simply dial the threshold control down until the desired amount of compression is achieved. An LED light indicates when the compressor is active.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVari-Phase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eIn addition to the standard polarity reverse, the 5017 also incorporates a vari-phase control to adjust the phase incrementally.

With its simple yet powerful topologies and extensive feature set, every element of the Portico II: Channel is geared towards empowering recording artists to realize these visions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInput Section\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInput signals may be derived from any of three sources; Microphone, Line or DI. The Microphone input has a 10K Ω non-reactive input resistance that handles a full 26dBu signal without the need for a pad. A primary Gain control provides 66dB of gain in 6dB increments for easy recall with a +\/- 6dB Trim for fine adjustment. A transient-optimized HPF continuously covering the range from 20-250Hz is included. In addition the usual 48V Phantom Power switch, Phase Inversion, Signal Present indicator and a Mute switch are included. The pre-amp is a TLA non-reactive design that precludes the loading of microphones with limited driving capability and which maintains a 2 dB noise figure over a wide range.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInserting a plug into the DI input, selects a 3M Ω Discrete FET DI circuit that includes the transformer-coupled pristine topography that optimizes both the microphone and DI inputs, allowing low impedance microphones and high impedance sources like electric guitars and basses to deliver their optimum performance. Primary Gain and Trim controls are fully operational. A “Thru” jack on the front panel that duplicates the unaffected source signal allows the use of an external amplifier if required. A “Line” switch selects the independent Line XLR non-reactive input circuit that includes the HPF and Level trim controls.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTexture\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of the key developments in the Portico II is the new Texture section. Building on the “Silk” mode found in the Portico Series mic pre-amplifiers, Texture is designed to adjust the actual amount of harmonic music content from the source material, in effect, providing countless tonal options in one device. The texture section features distinct modes, controlled by a potentiometer from barely audible to dramatic!. With that said, we have placed great care insuring that the musical integrity of source material itself will not be compromised by these harmonic controls (these are not to be confused with controls from other manufactures that may “incinerate”, “demolish” or “destroy” source material), and we believe they can be confidently modified to fit the personality of any song, instrument or engineer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the original Portico, Silk mode works by reducing negative feedback on the output transformer and adjusting the frequency response to more closely resemble Mr. Rupert Neve’s vintage designs. “Silk +” mode pushes this technique still further, achieving a more harmonically rich sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the original Portico, Silk mode works by reducing negative feedback on the output transformer and adjusting the frequency response to more closely resemble vintage designs by Mr. Rupert Neve. Velvet mode pushes this technique further, by increasing saturation on the output transformer to achieve a more colored sound.

By default, the EQ section follows the mic preamplifier and HPF, and precedes the compressor, but this sequence may be reversed by engaging the Post Comp switch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Low Shelf has an independent engage switch, Classic Peak\/ Accelerated Shelf selection, with +\/- 12dB level adjustment, and selectable turnover frequencies of 35, 60, 100, and 220 Hz. The Fully Parametric LMF and HMF bands have a joint engage switch, providing +\/- 12dB level adjustment, continuously variable “Q” from 0.7 to 5 and continuously variable frequency ranges from 70 to 1.4KHz and 700Hz to 14KHz. In addition to its standard capabilities, the HMF band can also be used to precisely tune a new De-Esser circuit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe De-Esser can be varied from off to full effect, and uses the Frequency, and “Q” controls to tame harsh sibilance in vocals and instruments with an independent high-mid limiter. Even when the De-Esser is on, the EQ level may still be used. The High Frequency shelf has independent engage switch, Classic Peak\/ Accelerated Shelf selection, +\/- 12dB level adjustment, and selectable turnover frequencies of 4.7, 6.8, 12, and 25kHz. When two Portico II Channels are used side by side, the EQ section can also excel at stereo material.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets-ponticlaro.netdna-ssl.com\/rupert-neve\/media\/2014\/09\/channel-p2-new-1-1800x1362.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompressor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA further array of tools are used to craft dynamic response. The Portico II’s compressor section is exceptionally flexible. Like the Portico 5043, the compressor a choice of Forward Feed \/ Return Feed modes, either providing a transparent modern response, or a smoother more musical vintage response. Along with FF\/FB modes, there are also 1:1 to 40:1 ratio controls and threshold from -30dBu to +20dBu, together with Attack from 20 to 75ms (.1 ms in fast mode), Release from 100ms to 2.5s, and Make up gain from 0 to 20dB with a Stereo Link.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Portico II compressor however incorporates a number of new ways to tame or enhance dynamics. HPF to SC inserts the High Pass Filter into the side chain to deal with intense low frequencies that may skew the response of the VCA with certain songs and instruments. The “Fast” switch alters the compressor’s attack to react to transients with a roughly .1ms response time. When “fast” is disengaged, the compressor responds to the RMS signal in conjunction with the attack and release settings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Blend” works by creating a parallel mix between the compressed and dry signals. By mixing the compressed and dry signals, it is possible to increase the volume of quieter elements in the source material (for instance, delicate snare brushing on a track with much louder hits), while maintaining a natural dynamic feel for the louder elements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo further control the side chain, there is also an insert “send” and “return” that may be paired with an external EQ or other filters for additional manipulation.

The Microphone input has a 10K Ω non-reactive input resistance that handles a full 26dBu signal without the need for a pad. A primary Gain control provides 66dB of gain in 6dB increments for easy recall with a +\/- 6dB Trim for fine adjustment. A transient-optimized HPF continuously covering the range from 20-250Hz is included. In addition the usual 48V Phantom Power switch, Phase Inversion, Signal Present indicator and a Mute switch are included. The pre-amp is a TLA non-reactive design that precludes the loading of microphones with limited driving capability and which maintains a 2 dB noise figure over a wide range.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInserting a plug into the DI input, selects a 3M Ω Discrete FET DI circuit that includes the transformer-coupled pristine topography that optimizes both the microphone and DI inputs, allowing low impedance microphones and high impedance sources like electric guitars and basses to deliver their optimum performance. Primary Gain and Trim controls are fully operational. A “Thru” jack on the front panel that duplicates the unaffected source signal allows the use of an external amplifier if required. A “Line” switch selects the independent Line XLR non-reactive input circuit that includes the HPF and Level trim controls.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTexture\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of the key developments in the Portico II is the new Texture section. Building on the “Silk” mode found in the Portico Series mic pre-amplifiers, Texture is designed to adjust the actual amount of harmonic music content from the source material, in effect, providing countless tonal options in one device. The texture section features distinct modes, controlled by a potentiometer from barely audible to dramatic!. With that said, we have placed great care insuring that the musical integrity of source material itself will not be compromised by these harmonic controls (these are not to be confused with controls from other manufactures that may “incinerate”, “demolish” or “destroy” source material), and we believe they can be confidently modified to fit the personality of any song, instrument or engineer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the original Portico, Silk mode works by reducing negative feedback on the output transformer and adjusting the frequency response to more closely resemble Mr. Rupert Neve’s vintage designs. “Silk +” mode pushes this technique still further, achieving a more harmonically rich sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the original Portico, Silk mode works by reducing negative feedback on the output transformer and adjusting the frequency response to more closely resemble vintage designs by Mr. Rupert Neve. Velvet mode pushes this technique further, by increasing saturation on the output transformer to achieve a more colored sound.

By default, the EQ section follows the mic preamplifier and HPF, and precedes the compressor, but this sequence may be reversed by engaging the Post Comp switch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Low Shelf has an independent engage switch, Classic Peak\/ Accelerated Shelf selection, with +\/- 12dB level adjustment, and selectable turnover frequencies of 35, 60, 100, and 220 Hz. The Fully Parametric LMF and HMF bands have a joint engage switch, providing +\/- 12dB level adjustment, continuously variable “Q” from 0.7 to 5 and continuously variable frequency ranges from 70 to 1.4KHz and 700Hz to 14KHz.

The High Frequency shelf has independent engage switch, Classic Peak\/ Accelerated Shelf selection, +\/- 12dB level adjustment, and selectable turnover frequencies of 4.7, 6.8, 12, and 25kHz.

The Portico II’s compressor section is exceptionally flexible. Like the Portico 5043, the compressor a choice of Forward Feed \/ Return Feed modes, either providing a transparent modern response, or a smoother more musical vintage response. Along with FF\/FB modes, there are also 1:1 to 40:1 ratio controls and threshold from -30dBu to +20dBu, together with Attack from 20 to 75ms (.1 ms in fast mode), Release from 100ms to 2.5s, and Make up gain from 0 to 20dB with a Stereo Link.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Portico II compressor however incorporates a number of new ways to tame or enhance dynamics. HPF to SC inserts the High Pass Filter into the side chain to deal with intense low frequencies that may skew the response of the VCA with certain songs and instruments. The “Fast” switch alters the compressor’s attack to react to transients with a roughly .1ms response time. When “fast” is disengaged, the compressor responds to the RMS signal in conjunction with the attack and release settings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Blend” works by creating a parallel mix between the compressed and dry signals. By mixing the compressed and dry signals, it is possible to increase the volume of quieter elements in the source material (for instance, delicate snare brushing on a track with much louder hits), while maintaining a natural dynamic feel for the louder elements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo further control the side chain, there is also an insert “send” and “return” that may be paired with an external EQ or other filters for additional manipulation.

The Shelford Channel is built around Rupert Neve’s first new transformer-gain, class-A microphone preamplifier in over 40 years, the “best-of-the-classics” inductor EQ section from the Shelford 5052, a tone-packed Diode bridge compressor, the analog power of variable Silk saturation, a new dual-tap transformer output stage for maintaining headroom or allowing the full driving of the Channel without clipping standard converters, and twice the operating voltage of vintage designs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yV6OW0fKIcE\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTransformer Gain Mic Input\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike Rupert’s classic designs, the Shelford Channel’s mic input uses direct transformer coupling with 15dB of gain in the transformer itself. This extremely sensitive design utilizes the new RN4012 transformer, which spent years in development. The resulting sonic performance allows the mic pre to capture the more forward mid’s and slightly rounded off high and low frequencies of vintage designs like the 1073. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect Input\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hi-Z front panel input uses the same discrete class-A FET with transformer topology as the Rupert Neve Designs RNDI, but it utilizes the new RN4012 input transformer directly into the microphone preamp for gain. This design, delivers exceptional clarity to high-Z sources, with a substantial low-end presence and incredibly smooth high frequencies. The DI also includes a passive THRU output to feed a separate amplifier. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual Tap Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual-tap output for the Channel’s RN2042 square-core output transformer creates both high and low headroom outputs without compromising the channel’s performance. The high headroom tap is designed capture a more pristine sound at high levels, avoiding non-linear coloration of the output stage and taking full advantage of the Shelford’s higher voltage design. The low headroom tap however is optimized to allow an engineer to drive the full voltage range of the Channel – adding dynamic tone with these same non-linear “colorations” – without clipping most professional interfaces (Max output level +19dBU). On drums, vocals, guitars and other instruments, this output lets you easily hit the transformer’s “sweet-spot” of non-linear harmonic content, which can bring a recorded performance to life in a way that other effects can’t.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSilk \u0026amp; Texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother advantage of the Shelford Channels’ transformer balanced output stage versus vintage modules is the addition of the variable Silk \u0026amp; Texture circuitry, which allows complete control over the harmonic content and saturation of the output transformer. With Silk disengaged, the output is modern and pristine, yet still retains Rupert’s signature larger-than-life transformer sound. When engaged, the harmonic content – predominantly 2nd order and 3rd order with no high order distortion – can be dialed up to several times beyond that found in his vintage units like the 1073. This is further controlled with Silk Red and Blue modes, which emphasize harmonic content generated by the source’s high frequencies (Red) or low frequencies (Blue).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMIC\/DI\/LINE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitches between microphone\/direct injection input (button out) or line input (button in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGnd Lift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis switch separates the direct connection from audio signal ground to chassis earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSignal Present LED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis LED is dual function.

When red, it indicates 2-3dB below input stage clipping of the Mic\/Line stage (+23 dBu while the pre actually clips at +25 dBu).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMic Gain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 12-way precision rotary switch controls gain from 0 to 66 dB in 6 dB steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrim\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rotary switch provides further continuous gain adjustment over a range of +\/– 6 dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e48V\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis push button switch engages phantom power on the microphone input. Please remember to press the mute button or turn down monitors and headphone sends or the channel the Shelford Channel is plugged into before toggling “+48” (and be especially cautious if you use pre-fader aux sends for headphones).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePhase\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis push button switch inverts the polarity of the signal path. It illuminates when engaged. (The symbol “Ø” is often used to denote opposite polarity.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHPF\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HPF switch engages a 12dB per octave high pass filter. The HPF potentiometer is variable from 20Hz to 250Hz, and can be used to filter out unwanted low frequencies, or in conjunction with the EQ to help shape source material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote that engaging the HPF to S\/C switch moves the HPF from the primary signal path to the compressor side-chain signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHPF Freq\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis control selects the frequency at which the filter begins (-3db) to roll off low frequency signals. It is a 12 dB per octave Bessel filter designed to musically preserve important timing information while cutting low frequency noise and garbage like air conditioning rumble. We may suggest that while recording that the lowest practical setting is generally the safest because it is difficult to try to recover lows with an EQ (6 dB\/oct) that may have been chopped off with a filter (12 dB\/Oct).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEQ In\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis swtich engages all EQ frequency bands except the HPF.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLF\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjusts up to 15 dB of boost or cut at the selected low frequencies. Cut can be used as a variable, and perhaps more gentle alternative to using the HPF. Remember to reduce the signal level at the source to minimize the potential for distortion when any of the 3 bands are boosted significantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLow Freq\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LOW FREQ rotary switch has 4 positions for selecting one of four corner or center frequencies for the low band EQ section. The frequencies are 35 Hz, 60 Hz, 100 Hz and 220 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLF Peak\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the button is out, the low frequency band operates in shelf mode, boosting or cutting below the corner frequency. Above the corner frequency the amount of boost or cut gradually diminishes at approximately 6 dB\/octave. With the HI PEAK button pressed the low frequency band changes to peak mode with a bell shaped boost or cut curve. Between the LF PEAK button and LF FREQ rotary switch, an engineer has 8 tonal variations of EQ shapes to finesse the bottom end, plus the high pass filter can be introduced for further tightening and manipulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMid Hi Q\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resonance or Q of the mid band at maximum boost is typically 2 when the button is out. When the MID HI Q is pressed at maximum boost, the Q narrows to approximately 3.5. The Q widens nicely with less boost or cut as is typical for passive EQ circuits. The Q tends to be slightly wider when the frequency is set lower, and slightly higher for higher frequency selections. The Q is also narrower for cuts than it is for boosts and the mid band is non-symmetrical by design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjusts up to 15 dB of boost or cut at the selected mid frequencies. Remember to reduce the signal level at the source to minimize the potential for distortion when any of the 3 bands are boosted significantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMid Freq\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MID FREQ rotary switch has 6 positions to select the center frequency of the mid band EQ stage. This circuit utilizes an inductor and capacitors to shape the EQ curve, the same way as Rupert Neve’s console designs of the 70’s. The frequencies chosen are 200 Hz, 400 Hz, 900 Hz, 1.8 kHz, 3.5 kHz and 7.5 kHz. 200 Hz is especially useful for cuts on individual tracks within a dense mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHF Peak\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the button is out, the high frequency band operates in shelf mode, boosting or cutting above the corner frequency at approximately 6 dB\/octave. Below the corner frequency the amount of boost or cut gradually diminishes. With the HI PEAK button pressed, the high frequency band changes to peak mode with a bell shaped boost or cut curve. The Peak mode utilizes an inductor and capacitor circuit to create the bell-shaped curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e8k\/16k\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the switch out, the center or corner frequency of the high band is 8 kHz. With the button pressed, the center or corner frequency changes to 16 kHz. Between this switch and the HI PEAK switch, you have 4 different EQ curves to finesse the high frequency content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHF\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjusts up to 15 dB of boost or cut at selected high frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTHE SIDE CHAIN INSERT JACKS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese pairs of jacks are only used to perform some fine tuning of the compressor operation. The audio that normally controls the compressor is available on the “SIDECHAIN SEND” jack. One can take this audio and pass it through an external equalizer then return it back to the “SIDECHAIN RETURN” jack. Now changes on the external EQ affect the sensitivity of the compressor. For example, if you cut some low frequencies on the external EQ, then the compressor will tend to not want to reduce the gain as much on bass notes. This is not the same thing as simply boosting lows on an equalizer, because the latter changes the frequency response while the former changes levels. Similarly, one could boost highs (6kHz for example) on the external EQ and cause the compressor to be extra-sensitive to that part of the spectrum which happens to correspond with sibilance (esses). This can act as one type of a de-esser that pulls down the volume of the whole signal if it senses an “ess.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComp In\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compressor-limiter section is engaged with this button in. This may be the most useful control on the compressor because it is there for “confidence checks.” In particular, exercise it in both the quietest and the loudest sections of the song.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch out for the compressor exaggerating noise and room sound in the quiet sections and chopping off transients and consonants in the loud sections, either of which suggest maybe too much compressor “action.” Conversely, losing quiet phrases or inadvertent clipping might suggest that a little more compression is warranted keeping in mind that you can always do a bit more in the mix but undoing over-compression is not fun and often not even possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThreshold\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSets level where the compressor may begin to react from -25 dB to +20 dB. Minimal or no compression is with this control fully clockwise and it gets more sensitive and tends to cause more gain reduction as the knob is rotated counter-clockwise (which may be counter-intuitive to some).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRatio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSets the “slope” of the compression from 1.5:1 (minimal) to 8:1 (significant). For example if this knob is set for 3:1 then if the signal goes 15 dB over the threshold then it attenuates 10 dB and allows the output to rise 5 dB. In general, low ratios can not damage the music as much as high ratios but high ratios may be more useful to minimize clipping and OL lights in the recorder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen setting the Threshold and Ratio it is useful to use the VU meter. However even more importantly, you should rely on your ears and use the COMP IN button to perform confidence checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSC Insert\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis control inserts an external device into the side-chain signal path via the rear panel side-chain insert jacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHPF to S\/C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis routes the High Pass Filter into the circuit that the compressor uses to determine level, commonly referred to as “the side-chain.” Note that the rest of the circuit and output will not have those lows filtered out. This function tends to be very useful because typical sounds often have more energy in the low octaves and can cause excessive compression. Our ears may tend to associate loudness with mids or high mids for some sounds and one may be wanting the compressor to regulate and smooth perceived loudness. Removing some amount of low frequencies that the compressor “sees” can help especially if one is compressing deeply (-8 dB or more).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften referred to as Make Up Gain. Considering the compressor is generally being forced to attenuate louder signals, some method of returning the average level to a volume comparable with the compressor bypassed is desirable. The GAIN control is mostly used for this purpose especially for those of us that depend on comparing compression to bypass. GAIN is often pushed for even more level than “bypass” because it is understood that the compressor should be providing some effective headroom (besides “louder is better” being the oldest trick in the book).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTiming\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis six-position controls adjusts the attack\/release speed of the compressor.

The Shelford Channel is built around Rupert Neve’s first new transformer-gain, class-A microphone preamplifier in over 40 years, the “best-of-the-classics” inductor EQ section from the Shelford 5052, a tone-packed Diode bridge compressor, the analog power of variable Silk saturation, a new dual-tap transformer output stage for maintaining headroom or allowing the full driving of the Channel without clipping standard converters, and twice the operating voltage of vintage designs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yV6OW0fKIcE\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTransformer Gain Mic Input\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike Rupert’s classic designs, the Shelford Channel’s mic input uses direct transformer coupling with 15dB of gain in the transformer itself. This extremely sensitive design utilizes the new RN4012 transformer, which spent years in development. The resulting sonic performance allows the mic pre to capture the more forward mid’s and slightly rounded off high and low frequencies of vintage designs like the 1073. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect Input\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hi-Z front panel input uses the same discrete class-A FET with transformer topology as the Rupert Neve Designs RNDI, but it utilizes the new RN4012 input transformer directly into the microphone preamp for gain. This design, delivers exceptional clarity to high-Z sources, with a substantial low-end presence and incredibly smooth high frequencies. The DI also includes a passive THRU output to feed a separate amplifier. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual Tap Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual-tap output for the Channel’s RN2042 square-core output transformer creates both high and low headroom outputs without compromising the channel’s performance. The high headroom tap is designed capture a more pristine sound at high levels, avoiding non-linear coloration of the output stage and taking full advantage of the Shelford’s higher voltage design. The low headroom tap however is optimized to allow an engineer to drive the full voltage range of the Channel – adding dynamic tone with these same non-linear “colorations” – without clipping most professional interfaces (Max output level +19dBU). On drums, vocals, guitars and other instruments, this output lets you easily hit the transformer’s “sweet-spot” of non-linear harmonic content, which can bring a recorded performance to life in a way that other effects can’t.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSilk \u0026amp; Texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother advantage of the Shelford Channels’ transformer balanced output stage versus vintage modules is the addition of the variable Silk \u0026amp; Texture circuitry, which allows complete control over the harmonic content and saturation of the output transformer. With Silk disengaged, the output is modern and pristine, yet still retains Rupert’s signature larger-than-life transformer sound. When engaged, the harmonic content – predominantly 2nd order and 3rd order with no high order distortion – can be dialed up to several times beyond that found in his vintage units like the 1073. This is further controlled with Silk Red and Blue modes, which emphasize harmonic content generated by the source’s high frequencies (Red) or low frequencies (Blue).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMIC\/DI\/LINE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitches between microphone\/direct injection input (button out) or line input (button in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGnd Lift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis switch separates the direct connection from audio signal ground to chassis earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSignal Present LED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis LED is dual function.

Above the corner frequency the amount of boost or cut gradually diminishes at approximately 6 dB\/octave. With the HI PEAK button pressed the low frequency band changes to peak mode with a bell shaped boost or cut curve. Between the LF PEAK button and LF FREQ rotary switch, an engineer has 8 tonal variations of EQ shapes to finesse the bottom end, plus the high pass filter can be introduced for further tightening and manipulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMid Hi Q\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resonance or Q of the mid band at maximum boost is typically 2 when the button is out. When the MID HI Q is pressed at maximum boost, the Q narrows to approximately 3.5. The Q widens nicely with less boost or cut as is typical for passive EQ circuits. The Q tends to be slightly wider when the frequency is set lower, and slightly higher for higher frequency selections. The Q is also narrower for cuts than it is for boosts and the mid band is non-symmetrical by design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjusts up to 15 dB of boost or cut at the selected mid frequencies.

This circuit utilizes an inductor and capacitors to shape the EQ curve, the same way as Rupert Neve’s console designs of the 70’s. The frequencies chosen are 200 Hz, 400 Hz, 900 Hz, 1.8 kHz, 3.5 kHz and 7.5 kHz. 200 Hz is especially useful for cuts on individual tracks within a dense mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHF Peak\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the button is out, the high frequency band operates in shelf mode, boosting or cutting above the corner frequency at approximately 6 dB\/octave.

The audio that normally controls the compressor is available on the “SIDECHAIN SEND” jack. One can take this audio and pass it through an external equalizer then return it back to the “SIDECHAIN RETURN” jack. Now changes on the external EQ affect the sensitivity of the compressor. For example, if you cut some low frequencies on the external EQ, then the compressor will tend to not want to reduce the gain as much on bass notes. This is not the same thing as simply boosting lows on an equalizer, because the latter changes the frequency response while the former changes levels. Similarly, one could boost highs (6kHz for example) on the external EQ and cause the compressor to be extra-sensitive to that part of the spectrum which happens to correspond with sibilance (esses). This can act as one type of a de-esser that pulls down the volume of the whole signal if it senses an “ess.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComp In\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compressor-limiter section is engaged with this button in. This may be the most useful control on the compressor because it is there for “confidence checks.” In particular, exercise it in both the quietest and the loudest sections of the song.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch out for the compressor exaggerating noise and room sound in the quiet sections and chopping off transients and consonants in the loud sections, either of which suggest maybe too much compressor “action.” Conversely, losing quiet phrases or inadvertent clipping might suggest that a little more compression is warranted keeping in mind that you can always do a bit more in the mix but undoing over-compression is not fun and often not even possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThreshold\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSets level where the compressor may begin to react from -25 dB to +20 dB. Minimal or no compression is with this control fully clockwise and it gets more sensitive and tends to cause more gain reduction as the knob is rotated counter-clockwise (which may be counter-intuitive to some).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRatio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSets the “slope” of the compression from 1.5:1 (minimal) to 8:1 (significant). For example if this knob is set for 3:1 then if the signal goes 15 dB over the threshold then it attenuates 10 dB and allows the output to rise 5 dB. In general, low ratios can not damage the music as much as high ratios but high ratios may be more useful to minimize clipping and OL lights in the recorder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen setting the Threshold and Ratio it is useful to use the VU meter. However even more importantly, you should rely on your ears and use the COMP IN button to perform confidence checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSC Insert\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis control inserts an external device into the side-chain signal path via the rear panel side-chain insert jacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHPF to S\/C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis routes the High Pass Filter into the circuit that the compressor uses to determine level, commonly referred to as “the side-chain.” Note that the rest of the circuit and output will not have those lows filtered out. This function tends to be very useful because typical sounds often have more energy in the low octaves and can cause excessive compression. Our ears may tend to associate loudness with mids or high mids for some sounds and one may be wanting the compressor to regulate and smooth perceived loudness. Removing some amount of low frequencies that the compressor “sees” can help especially if one is compressing deeply (-8 dB or more).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften referred to as Make Up Gain. Considering the compressor is generally being forced to attenuate louder signals, some method of returning the average level to a volume comparable with the compressor bypassed is desirable. The GAIN control is mostly used for this purpose especially for those of us that depend on comparing compression to bypass. GAIN is often pushed for even more level than “bypass” because it is understood that the compressor should be providing some effective headroom (besides “louder is better” being the oldest trick in the book).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTiming\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis six-position controls adjusts the attack\/release speed of the compressor.

Sigma has re-defined project studio analogue summing with its SuperAnalogueTM sound, remote control functionality, clever features and streamlined workflow. In early 2016, the V2.0 software release brought SSL δelta-Control technology to Sigma. δelta-Control is SSL’s innovative automation system that allows the writing, editing and playback of analogue automation data via DAW plug-ins. This free update introduces Eucon control and three new AAX, AU and VST3\/VST format plug-ins; a new 16 channel plug-in brings Logic compatibility for the first time and new Mix Bus and Monitoring plug-ins streamline session control and recall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe new 16-fader ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSigma δelta16\u003c\/strong\u003e’ plug-in brings compatibility to Logic users, as well as offering an alternative workflow to ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSigma δelta Single Fader\u003c\/strong\u003e’ plug-in users. The new Sigma δelta16 plug-in allows users to write automation for Sigma’s 16 analogue faders from one plug-in window, solving Logic’s inherent limitation of only being able to write data to one plug-in at a time. In addition to this, Sigma δelta16 can control pans, Solo, Cut, mono\/stereo selection and mix bus assignments. A second new plug-in, the ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSigma δelta Mix Bus\u003c\/strong\u003e’, allows users to automate Sigma’s two stereo mix busses and their insert points. Finally, the ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSigma δelta Monitoring\u003c\/strong\u003e’ plug-in allows full control of Sigma’s monitoring section, including monitor and headphone levels, monitor cut, dim and source selection.

Vintage 1073s used different transformer variants throughout their production run; but the most coveted were the very first ones made by Marinair Radar, due to their fluid and forgiving nature that saturates sweetly when pushed. They have been known to bring engineers to tears when they hear how gorgeous their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio turned to Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design meticulous replicas of these most desirable early 1073 transformers. The results are stunning, and — to our ears — tantalizingly close to early vintage 1073s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWarm left no technical stone unturned\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eA vital yet not-often-discussed component of these classic British circuits is the different types of capacitors and output transistors used. To maintain the integrity of the original circuits, Warm decided to use high-quality tantalum and polystyrene capacitors in the signal path and an output transistor choice that delivers smoother results at higher gain settings than what is commonly found in today's 1073-style preamps. All considered, Warm Audio's monumental effort to design a no-compromise product has paid off handsomely.

Topping off the feature set are per-channel instrument jacks, polarity reverse, 48V phantom power, and switchable impedance for tonal variation and to optimally match a variety of microphones.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/8294\/files\/AS_WA273-4a_1024x1024.png?v=1536142074\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eOptimize every source — and microphone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThere is no source that doesn't sound amazing through the Warm Audio WA273. With judicious mic selection and placement, drums are larger-than-life; DI bass and keyboards sound massive and synths become trance-inducing; electric guitars soar; vocals rule. Pianos and acoustic guitars are resplendent. Orchestral instruments — strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion — achieve ineffable lushness and dimension. You can even use the WA273 as a tone-shaping tool to run stems or complete mixes through. Hear what the WA273 can do for your own recordings.

Vintage 1073s used different transformer variants throughout their production run; but the most coveted were the very first ones made by Marinair Radar, due to their fluid and forgiving nature that saturates sweetly when pushed. They have been known to bring engineers to tears when they hear how gorgeous their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio turned to Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design meticulous replicas of these most desirable early 1073 transformers. The results are stunning, and — to our ears — tantalizingly close to early vintage 1073s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWarm left no technical stone unturned\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eA vital yet not-often-discussed component of these classic British circuits is the different types of capacitors and output transistors used. To maintain the integrity of the original circuits, Warm decided to use high-quality tantalum and polystyrene capacitors in the signal path and an output transistor choice that delivers smoother results at higher gain settings than what is commonly found in today's 1073-style preamps. All considered, Warm Audio's monumental effort to design a no-compromise product has paid off handsomely.

'73-style preamps have been massively used in recording and live applications for many years and are still considered to be the “Holy Grail” of preamp choices today. The Warm Audio “WA73 Family” consists of single and dual channel '73-style preamps (with \u0026amp; w\/out EQ), that each pay careful homage to British audio history. When we at Warm Audio decided to release the WA273-EQ it was imperative that it met vintage expectation in both design and performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that we had only the pure desire to release sonically accurate reproductions. After years of R\u0026amp;D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA273-EQ was born! The WA273-EQ is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse. Classic '73-style preamps are known for being versatile tools that work with all kinds of microphones from Condenser, to Dynamic, to Ribbon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe WA273-EQ equally shines on all types of microphones and sources including; vocals, acoustic\/electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a tone shaping tool to run partial or complete mixes through.

The signal transformers are a common topic of conversation. Vintage units used various versions of transformers throughout the years, but the most coveted were the earliest versions. These are regarded as the most desirable choice due to their fluid and forgiving nature. They saturate sweetly when pushed, and have been known to make engineers cry when they hear how beautiful their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio worked closely with Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design faithful reproductions of these most coveted, early version transformers. We at Warm Audio have not yet heard a modern day '73-style preamp sound as sweet and musical as does our WA273-EQ with these beautiful custom Transformers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand Wired \u0026amp; Hand Assembled\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eClassic '73-style preamps were often hand-wired and so is the WA73-EQ!

'73-style preamps have been massively used in recording and live applications for many years and are still considered to be the “Holy Grail” of preamp choices today. The Warm Audio “WA73 Family” consists of single and dual channel '73-style preamps (with \u0026amp; w\/out EQ), that each pay careful homage to British audio history. When we at Warm Audio decided to release the WA273-EQ it was imperative that it met vintage expectation in both design and performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that we had only the pure desire to release sonically accurate reproductions. After years of R\u0026amp;D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA273-EQ was born! The WA273-EQ is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse. Classic '73-style preamps are known for being versatile tools that work with all kinds of microphones from Condenser, to Dynamic, to Ribbon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe WA273-EQ equally shines on all types of microphones and sources including; vocals, acoustic\/electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a tone shaping tool to run partial or complete mixes through. With 80dB of gain and a fully discrete Carnhill Transformer balanced signal path, there’s no recording, mixing or engineering task that the WA273-EQ can’t handle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK Custom Carnhill Transformers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eEnthusiasts unequivocally get excited about the components used in classic '73-style British preamps. The signal transformers are a common topic of conversation. Vintage units used various versions of transformers throughout the years, but the most coveted were the earliest versions. These are regarded as the most desirable choice due to their fluid and forgiving nature. They saturate sweetly when pushed, and have been known to make engineers cry when they hear how beautiful their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio worked closely with Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design faithful reproductions of these most coveted, early version transformers. We at Warm Audio have not yet heard a modern day '73-style preamp sound as sweet and musical as does our WA273-EQ with these beautiful custom Transformers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand Wired \u0026amp; Hand Assembled\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eClassic '73-style preamps were often hand-wired and so is the WA73-EQ!

The Warm Audio “WA73 Family” consists of single and dual channel '73-style preamps (with \u0026amp; w\/out EQ), that each pay careful homage to British audio history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4XY_1oDzOoI\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWhen we at Warm Audio decided to release the WA73 it was imperative that it met vintage expectation in both design and performance. The tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that we had only the pure desire to release sonically accurate reproductions. After years of R\u0026amp;D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA73 has been born!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe WA73 is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse.

The tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that we had only the pure desire to release sonically accurate reproductions. After years of R\u0026amp;D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA73-EQ has been born!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe WA73-EQ is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse. Classic '73-style preamps are known for being versatile tools that work with all kinds of microphones from Condenser, to Dynamic, to Ribbon. The WA73-EQ equally shines on all types of microphones and sources including; vocals, acoustic\/electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a tone shaping tool to run partial or complete mixes through. With 80dB of gain and a fully discrete Carnhill Transformer balanced signal path, there’s no recording, mixing or engineering task that the WA73-EQ can’t handle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK Custom Carnhill Transformers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eEnthusiasts unequivocally get excited about the components used in classic '73-style British preamps. The signal transformers are a common topic of conversation. Vintage units used various versions of transformers throughout the years, but the most coveted were the earliest versions. These are regarded as the most desirable choice due to their fluid and forgiving nature. They saturate sweetly when pushed, and have been known to make engineers cry when they hear how beautiful their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio worked closely with Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design faithful reproductions of these most coveted, early version transformers. We at Warm Audio have not yet heard a modern day '73-style preamp sound as sweet and musical as does our WA73-EQ with these beautiful custom Transformers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand Wired \u0026amp; Hand Assembled\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eClassic '73-style preamps were often hand-wired and so is the WA73-EQ!

The Warm Audio “WA73 Family” consists of single and dual channel '73-style preamps (with \u0026amp; w\/out EQ), that each pay careful homage to British audio history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4XY_1oDzOoI\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uWxvUeBGo3U\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWhen we at Warm Audio decided to release the WA73-EQ it was imperative that it met vintage expectation in both design and performance. The tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that we had only the pure desire to release sonically accurate reproductions. After years of R\u0026amp;D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA73-EQ has been born!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe WA73-EQ is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse. Classic '73-style preamps are known for being versatile tools that work with all kinds of microphones from Condenser, to Dynamic, to Ribbon. The WA73-EQ equally shines on all types of microphones and sources including; vocals, acoustic\/electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a tone shaping tool to run partial or complete mixes through. With 80dB of gain and a fully discrete Carnhill Transformer balanced signal path, there’s no recording, mixing or engineering task that the WA73-EQ can’t handle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK Custom Carnhill Transformers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eEnthusiasts unequivocally get excited about the components used in classic '73-style British preamps. The signal transformers are a common topic of conversation. Vintage units used various versions of transformers throughout the years, but the most coveted were the earliest versions. These are regarded as the most desirable choice due to their fluid and forgiving nature. They saturate sweetly when pushed, and have been known to make engineers cry when they hear how beautiful their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio worked closely with Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design faithful reproductions of these most coveted, early version transformers. We at Warm Audio have not yet heard a modern day '73-style preamp sound as sweet and musical as does our WA73-EQ with these beautiful custom Transformers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand Wired \u0026amp; Hand Assembled\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eClassic '73-style preamps were often hand-wired and so is the WA73-EQ! Guru’s claim that a portion of the sought after classic British tone can be attributed to the hand-wired nature of the build. The WA73-EQ is hand-wired and hand assembled, including the pcb components that are all populated by hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacitors \u0026amp; Signal Path\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eAn important part of the classic British circuits not often discussed are the different styles of capacitors and output transistor used. We found it important to maintain integrity to the original design by using tantalum and polystyrene capacitors in the signal path and an output transistor choice that is much smoother in the high gain settings than what is typically found in modern '73-style reproductions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK Blore Edwards Switch-Pots\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eA great sounding '73-style circuit should be just as reliable as it is great sounding.
