Product Details:
The HHB Radius 5 Fat Man 2 is the first tube pre-amplifier / compressor to combine fully adjustable controls with fifteen preset compression programs, allowing you the choice of creating your own unique settings or opting for our wide selection of factory programmed presets. Now at last you have access to professional sounding high quality tube compression for both tracking and mixing.
The Fat Man 2 combines classic tube techniques with solid state circuitry (known as a hybrid design) in order to achieve the best combination of noise performance and tube warmth. This makes the Fat Man 2 ideal for integration int o both analogue and digital recording systems, where extra warmth is required without the penalty of increased noise levels.
A solid state, electronically balanced input amplifier is used to achieve state of the art performance with very low noise, low distortion and wide bandwidth. An ECC83 / 12AX7A triode tube stage is used as a second stage voltage amplifier, to obtain the classic tube sound and gradual overdrive characteristics. Like other HHB compressors, the gain control element of the Fat Man 2 is based around a special transconductance amplifier; which avoided the use of VCAs and helps contribute to the smooth, open sound of the unit.
A certain degree of program dependent response is built into the Fat Man 2, particularly for the attack and release times, and both soft and hard knee responses are obtainable. An illuminated VU meter monitors the output level or gain reduction.
A microphone input with switchable phantom power is provided, as well as line input and output, on electronically balanced connectors. These are fully compatible with unbalanced signals, with sufficient input and output gain control range to cover all conventional signal levels. A front panel instrument input is also provided, thus allowing instruments such as guitars, bass and keyboards to feed directly into the Fat Man 2, removing the need for a separate DI box.
