{"product_id":"thermionic-culture-vulture-demo-deal","title":"Thermionic Culture Vulture (Demo Deal)","description":"Originally designed as a \"distortion box\" to simulate distortion in valve amps, the \u003cb\u003eThermionic Culture Vulture\u003c\/b\u003e has found lots of uses beyond this. We know that some owners use them on drum loops, vocals, piano sounds and even across entire tracks (it is a stereo unit). \u003cp\u003eWe have refined this so that distortion figures are reduced to only 0.2% at lowest to about 99.9% (at least that's what our distortion meter tells us!). Predominant distortion can be changed from even to odd harmonics with a simple switch. We know it's recently been rented to mix a JAMES BOND movie! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm sounds gently or create a noise like a 200 watt guitar stack with all the drivers slashed.\u003cbr\u003eIndependent channel operation \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eOdd or even harmonic distortion, or combination of both. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll valve design free from solid state additives. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh impedance line input or instrument inputs. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 \u0026amp; 7 kHz filters \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverdrive \u0026amp; bypass switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cb\u003eSome Cultured users...\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Because of their unique blend of flexibility, musicality, and usability, brought about as a result of being hand-built by some of the worlds leading pro audio valve equipment designers and engineeers, Thermionic Culture products attract their fair share of high profile, industry leading producers and engineers from the world of recording technology.
