Little Devil Pre Amp
500 Series Module
From Chandler Limited:
The Chandler Limited Little Devil Preamp is a discrete, transformer balanced 500 Series module that combines Wade Goeke’s designs with recording studio favorites of the past.
The Class A gain stage sounds like no other design we’ve done. It’s big, yet open and full of life. Just about any parameter of the sound is changeable including the ability to change both the Feedback and Bias of the amplifier. The Feedback control increases harmonics thousands of times over the range of the control. The nature of clipping and distortion also changes and ranges from soft Class A clipping to super soft gushy tube type. The sounds range from a very colored and “overbiased” tone to a gently colored and “in your face” tone.
Other features of the Little Devil Pre include High and Low input impedance; transformer balanced line in for using the Devil as a color box on mixes or tracks; low cut; bright switch and more! This unit has no power-up issues with lunchboxes and rack systems.
