Pre-tube amp versatile enough for use: home studio (to give more punch and brilliance to the input signal), but can also be used in live to "warm" and especially compress the sound of a bass instrument type ( above) or guitar (bof) before attacking an amp or console (use as DI).
2 inputs: XLR and TRS
2 Outputs: jack and XLR
For the edge (input of a microphone), it is better to use XLR.
CAUTION: TRANSFORMERS in AC: I made the mistake of using the transformer power supply as another pedal (which is in DC and with a lower amperage) and many transformer shot: watch for it not very easy to find an AC transformer with this amp (1 A), the more it costs the price of the bike ...
The lamp is a lamp provided Chinese: I immediately changed to a DD 83S lamp, which I recommend for all round use (ntmt votes) more roundness.
MAJOR FAULT: no ON / OFF switch, so I put 7
UTILIZATION
Confuguration could not be more simple, manual ok ik you speak English
SOUND QUALITY
Then there beware: do not expect a miracle, the difference is very slight, which for me is a guarantee of quality, as this device complies with the color of his that deals, in other words, if you play on a low Harley Benton 6 string connected to a trace elliot, do not expect to have the precision of his 60s.
I tried it on a rickenbacker 4001 before attacking the Little Mark II Markbass me and that brings a little more roundness and compression, but the sound is very very close.
idem in home studio: it does not transform voice, unfortunately ...
OVERALL OPINION
the value is very good: I recommend this product to all those who have never finished buying the stuff and are always looking to improve their sound: in other words if you like the sound of your instrument and that you play back without asking questions, he will not do you anything.
for home studio, why not but I think the quality of a model depends to 99.99% from other factors: quality of components, talented performer, used instruments and microphones, mixing ... and that in any event a model will never be worth recording in a real studio.
with experience, I would do anyway because that choice is good stuff ... the
