Pants - Mic Preamplifier

-
A four opamp, diferential mic preamp. Designed to
work in standard "500" racks.
The Pants uses a unique dual-bobbin
input transformer from Cinemag unlike any other.
The smooth Gain control helps you dial in the sound
you want. If the output level is too high, you can
ride the level down with the separate Level control.
Pressing the "High" switch changes the feedback
network to provide an insane 78dB of clean gain,
a great match for very low output mics.
With different Gain, High
mode switch, and Level settings the Pants can produce
many different tones with the same amount of output
level. The front panel DI goes through a FET buffer
into the input transformer, adding an extra dimension
to the sound of the preamp. The DI load switch gives
you two options, making it even easier to get the
best direct tone for your instrument. Two LEDs clearly
indicate signal level for the gain and output stages
at a glance, turning green to indicate signal present,
yellow for 10dB below clipping, and red for clipping.
The Pants uses two KDJ3 opamps
and two KDJ4 opamps.
