It provides a punchy and direct, ‘larger than life’ germanium sound for ribbon and dynamic microphones, adding classy Germanium harmonics. Sounding full and rich it is reminiscent of much higher priced vintage gear, making FetHead Ge's desirable coloration a really great addition to (Interface) preamps which sound rather neutral.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eGermanium flavor\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eGermanium transistors were widely used in earliest transistor designs by Neve, EMI, Telefunken, and Fairchild, and have developed a reputation for a decidedly vintage mojo that remains sought after today. We created a novel hybrid circuit that consists of low noise JFets and a hand-selected ‘new old stock’ germanium transistor to take full advantage of the \"Germanium\" sound and at the same time achieve the same sonic quality we are known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eProtects the microphone\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSome ribbon microphone do not tolerate phantom power.
