Transformer fully balanced hand wound ferrite transformers produced in Roger Mayer's UK workshop feature ultimate phase and linearity over a very wide bandwidth exceeding 80 kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe 456 features stepped input and output potentiometers. Input and outputs utilize gold plated Neutrik XLR connectors for reliability and compatibility. Independent selectable Transformer Balanced Line Input XLR adds flexibility. VU Meters with correct ballistics and extended accurate frequency response with multi-turn calibration enables all the current line up protocols to be easily interfaced and monitored.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003e456HD Analog Tape Simulation\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003e456HD High speed analog dynamic process can be switched In and Out to instantly hear the effect of the tape simulation properties. These are based upon and derived from a perfectly lined up Studer A80 with 456 Tape without any of the problems associated with old mechanical tape recorders that were temperamental at the best of times and required dedicated in house technicians to maintain them daily at great expense.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe output level of the 456HD process can be adjusted to simulate the over record set ups that were used back in the day to push the tape in saturation with the correct amount of compression. You can rest easy and think of the 456HD process as a solid state tape recorder being converted into digital by your DAW.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe 456HD process has been in use for over 2 years by top producers and the 456MP has been field tested by some of the finest ears in the industry. As my microphone amplifier design has long history of success and has been used in so many landmark recordings the actual process and evolution to the current model has been a case of simply bringing it forward and coupling it with Roger Mayer's latest high speed analog dynamics process to produce this unique compact product.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Mayer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450492809319,"sku":"126917","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/roger-mayer-456-4-channel_126917_1_66a36072-ec18-4159-bdf5-17b427ad2089.jpg?v=1787093281","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/roger-mayer-456-4-channel-microphone-preamp","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
