What We Think

avatar

The Sunset Sound Tutti is a total TONE MACHINE of the highest calibre. This preamp has quality in spades. Looking inside, you notice that only PREMIUM quality components are used throughout. It's seriously over-built (as premium quality gear should be). The fact is that the only way to have ever gotten the sound of this preamp on your recordings was to book time in Studio 1 at Sunset - if you could even get in, that is. Designed by Paul Camarata with assistance by Paul Wolff (formerly of API and Tonelux fame - currently Fix Audio), this production adaptation of the original Sunset Sound Studio 1 preamp really exhibits high-performance character that we feel sets it apart from the standard-fare mic preamps offered today. It doesn't simply pass signal; it transmits music. Trying to talk about the sound of this truly awe-inspiring preamp is a bit like the old adage - "dancing about architecture." You really need to hear it for yourself to understand just how wonderful the Sunset Sound S1P "Tutti" really sounds. There's a real clarity to this preamp that also carries a wallop of a weighty punch to it. You really cannot ask for more. Visually, the fun and Pacific Sunset-inspired yellow-to-orange-fade face plate perhaps makes it easy for many to dismiss this preamp as a toy and not something to take seriously. They couldn't be more wrong. It's unfortunate that these days, there is often more of a focus on how a piece of gear looks instead of how it sounds, and often who is endorsing it. And to a degree, we understand the mentality. But, No - it's not a Neve, and it's not an API. But that declaration should not imply that it is any less of the preamp than either of the two. In fact, to know the three, it's totally fair to say "The Neve and the API are NOT the Sunset Sound S1P "Tutti"." Having had experience with both of the famous flavors and with the Sunset Sound S1P "Tutti", we can say without a doubt that it is a classic sound you would happily want an entire bank of and never look back. And, when the rubber meets the road, this is a precision monster of a device exhibiting the soul of a classic-era American muscle car.
