The Drawmer 1960 Tube Preamp & Compressor is a two channel unit with each channel comprised of a completely natural sounding soft knee vacuum tube compressor and an extremely low noise microphone pre-amplifier with switchable 48 volt phantom power.
The Drawmer 1960 Tube Preamp & Compressor provides the ultimate direct interface between the sound source and the recording medium by combining eight active tube stages and the low noise and reliability of solid state electronics. The Drawmer 1960 Tube Preamp & Compressor also offers an auxiliary instrument pre-amp with EQ and brightness switch, which may be routed through both compressor channels. Suitable for a variety of signal sources, from electric guitars and basses to electronic keyboards, and is designed to be deliberately overdriven to add tonal colouration to an instrument. The powerful combination of the classic valve circuit, offering unsurpassed tonality, and the low noise balanced microphone input with up to 60dB of gain has allowed engineers throughout the world to exploit the full potential of high performance condenser microphones. An example of this would be the direct to digital stereo recording of live classical music without the necessity of a mixing console.
