only used in a smokeless studio…working correctly…because this item is used…there are no returns/refunds.

The Pre-Q5 started it’s life as a solid state version of our EQP-1A, and developed into the first 500 series preamp of its kind to feature passive EQ. By adding another of our discrete op-amps and a custom input transformer, we turned a smooth equaliser into a beast with 65dB of gain and a hugely variable range of character. This preamp allows you to make creative decisions to suit whatever it is you’re tracking. Wish that vocal had a little more body and an airy top end? No problem. Need a drum sound that works those transformers hard, but still have a useable output level? Can do.

FEATURES

• Up to 65dB of gain in 5dB steps.
• Switchable line level input for use as a standalone equaliser and ‘colour box’.
• A stepped attenuator for repeatable matching, and allowing saturation of the transformer.
• Low and High frequency shelving bands with three switchable frequencies each.
• Custom input and output transformer.
• Two of our own discrete op-amps.

SPECS

• Switchable 48v phantom power.
• Low frequency shelving options at 30hz, 60hz, and 100hz.
• High frequency shelving options at 8khz, 12khz, and 16khz.
• Output (post transformer) attenuation at -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -10, -15, -20, and infinity

due to that this item is used…there are no returns.
