- Prampli 2 12AX7 (1 / 2 plain, 2 for saturation)
- Lamps branded original Bogner on my copy.
- Two channels so that you can switch from a jack pdalier adhoc.
- Connectors and jacks.
- Hp Simu excellent output on line out.
- Channel 1: volume, tone / Channel 2: volume, gain, bass, treble / Master volume.

Of course seemed a bit just like a, a canal would troisime t welcome!
But being able to switch the remote makes its integration done everything possible in a rack noon.

UTILIZATION

Not need a manual ... Primary School level required.

SOUNDS

The clean channel is really neutral ... is it a quality or a default? The lack of rglage is felt on that channel when playing with a humbucker. A key "bright" t would welcome. If, against you connect your pedals to the disto prfre neutrality s'avre be an advantage.
The Distortion channel is a different story ... the SOUND. The absence of rglage mdiums of (a roof on a guitar preamp!) Do not feel that same as the SETTING THE bass and treble are effective. The gain is actually a little weak with the original lamp (in my case a Bogner). Replaces it with a Sovtek of 12ax7EH I can say that Greg is a saturated 10 carnage *! I just gain 8 and dj is enough for the big fat sound. 10 It is true that the breath is important and the addition of a denoiser is welcome if you put the gain more than 7. The grain is preserved all
gain levels.

* With a lag micro alnico ... yeah the output level of the microphone is important!

EDIT 19/03/2006

APRS many months of use I maintain that the lead channel is a killer. My great regret is the lack of a crunch channel. The clean channel is unusable for me because it's a bypass (very neutral) vritable a clear channel. I'm qute to find a 3-channel preamp with a good clean and a nice crunch (tubeman the rack is very well except in lead I think) but nothing happens for me a candle to the lag in its lead . I'm not talking about the level of saturation, but for the grain and precision ... this channel sings!
Gnant is quite the breath that's true but I do not spare.

OVERALL OPINION

Bought used for 50 Euros (10 Euros for a Sovtek EH). If I find another I achte immediately.
You can do everything, from blues to modern metal (yes, with the right lamps does!).
I at least found my sound and I would have a hard saturation release.
I do not put 10 because I find that "a crunch channel troisime really missing to make it autonomous. I overcome this default with the addition of an overdrive pedals on the clean channel.
It is rare ... so if you find one ... call me !!!!!

PS: the cost of DMOS are AF.
