It provides referring to the sound of vintage valve consoles and tape recorders.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's new\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe new version of SA2RATE is extended with a BOOST function, which amplifies the input level by 17 dB. Thanks to this option SA2RATE can directly cooperate with devices having a nominal output level of -10 dB, such as synthesizers, samplers, drum machines etc. It can also be directly inserted into effects loop in guitar amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSimultaneously SA2RATE is equipped with a balanced output with nominal level of +4 dBu and can serve as in instrumental preamplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eWith an input signal level of about +4 dBu the BOOST function allows extreme saturation and signal distortion, which significantly widens the sound scape available through SA2RATE.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSA2RATE works as an analogue soft limiter as well. It slightly aligns the signal and adds low-order harmonics in a smart way. The unit sets a solid and fat sound in the recording, proccessing and mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eMonster Compressor was a primary point of reference for the creation of SA2RATE because of its acknowledged saturation system based on vaccum tubes. We managed to achieve a distinct sound of vaccum tubes with the usage of semiconductor technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSA2RATE is user-friendly. All the channels are equipped with two knobs: DRIVE (saturation depth) and OUTPUT (output level). Saturation depth (the amount of added harmonics) is indicated by two LEDs at 4 and 8% THD.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Looptrotter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449519206503,"sku":"31622","price":599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/looptrotter-sa2rate_31622_1_4d72927d-4087-47f3-bc0b-03762d4b064f.jpg?v=1787089291","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/looptrotter-audio-sa2rate","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
