ECH 21, THE COMPANY
Tech 21 was formed by a guitarist possessing the unusual combination
of a trained ear and electronics expertise. In 1989, B. Andrew Barta made his
invention commercially available to players and studios around the world.
His highly-acclaimed
SansAmp
™ pioneered Tube Amplifier Emulation in
professional applications for recording direct and performing live, and creat-
ed an entirely new category of signal processing. There have since been
many entries into this niche, yet SansAmp continues to maintain its reputa-
tion as the industry standard.
With a full line of SansAmp models, Tech 21 also offers effect pedals and
MIDI products, as well as “traditional” style amplifiers for guitar and bass.
Each product is thoughtfully and respectfully designed by B. Andrew Barta
himself with the player in mind. Our goal is to provide you with flexible, ver-
satile tools to cultivate, control, refine and redefine your own individual
sound. Tech 21 takes great pride in delivering consistent quality sound, stu-
dio to studio, club to club, arena to arena.

POWER ENGINE 60, AN OVERVIEW
The Power Engine 60 is yet another new multi-functional concept from Tech
21. These handsome cabinets, available in 1x12, 2x12 and 4x10 configura-
tions, match and complement our own Trademark Series of combo ampli-
fiers. They each have 60 watts of
transparent power with convenient, on-
board 3-band, active EQ controls to compensate for challenging venues.
You can use a Power Engine 60 with
any
direct recording device or pre-amp
--analog or digital, tube or solid state-- from
any
manufacturer. (We happen
to be partial to our own SansAmp line of direct recording pre-amps, of
course, but that’s just us.)
Take your SansAmp, or preamp gizmo du jour, with all those great direct
sounds you’ve spent so much time creating, out to a gig and simply plug into
the Power Engine 60. It will amplify all your personal settings without giving
you any additional coloration. Just volume, no tone.
With a Trademark or other amplifier, you can incorporate the Power Engine
60 into your existing system to substantially increase the volume when you
need it for larger venues, as well as for monitoring.
There are ground-independent inputs and output, so there’s no limit to how
much power you can have. Power Engine 60s can be daisy-chained from
New York to Tokyo (and back!).
