PT2-500D

TRUE Systems announces the introduction of our pT2-500D Precision Dynamic Preamp in the APITM 500 series module format. The pT2-500D preamp is optimized for dynamic and ribbon microphones, and also produces superior results with self-powered tube microphones. While similar to our TEC-nominated pT2-500, it provides more gain (76dB) and higher input impedance, along with a unique low frequency adjust control. The LO-F Adjust is a 6-position switch that provides nuanced low frequency contouring that can be particularly effective with vocals and bass DI applications. A discrete FET DI with In and Thru connections completes the package.

FEATURES

•   APITM 500 series module format

•   Detented, continuous Gain Control and Dual Gain Ranges for:

  • 76dB maximum gain

  • easy recall of gain settings

  • easy gain setting over wide gain ranges

•   High Input Impedance for:

• More clarity and accuracy with ribbon and dynamic microphones

•   Low Frequency Adjust Control for:

  • nuanced low frequency contouring

  • better definition of vocals and bass without boosting high midrange

  • elimination of low frequency “mud”

•   “Real DI” with IN and THRU jacks for:

  • easy hookup to amps for simultaneous DI and amp’d tracking or live sound

  • easy hookup to other DI’s or effects for simultaneous tracking or live sound

•   Totally Balanced Topology for:

  • insensitivity to ground noise/loops

  • Insensitivity to EMI, both external and from adjacent modules/power supplies

  • reduced distortion

•   Rail-to-Rail design for:

  • higher internal headroom

  • higher maximum input level without pad

  • higher output level without transformer and excessive power supply current

•   0.1% precision resistors for:

  • exceptional Common-Mode and Output Signal Balance performance

  • excellent unit-to-unit sonic consistency
