Flamingo Reviews



|
Flamingo is a high quality 2-channel
Discrete Class A Microphone Preamplifier. It can be operated as
a musically transparent amplifier, and is capable of emulating vintage
sounds as well as creating distinctive new ones.
A stepped switch for gain matching
and repeatability selects the input gain; a continuously variable
attenuator allows gain trim. Gain is adjustable in 6 db increments
to 66 db gain and down to off by the attenuator.
Each channel has independently
switchable phase and phantom power switches.
Flamingo also contains a 2-channel,
22-element VU meter with an overload indicator to allow accurate
monitoring and ease of level adjustment.
Unique to Flamingo are two switches
that allow the user to select different sounds: IRON
and SOUND.
The SOUND switch changes the
type of amplifier while the IRON switch puts iron in the audio path.
By using these switches, Flamingo can produce four different sounds.
Flamingo has transformerless
balanced inputs and outputs. The unit is 1 rack space tall and operates
from 100V, 115V, 230V, or 240V mains.
Flamingo is designed to be flexible
and give the user a tool to solve real world recording, broadcast,
and sound reinforcement problems. It can provide an artistic choice
of sounds at the flip of a switch.
"A
definite contender in the
'best mic preamp at any price'
category."
