The DIO Tube Preamp System II updates the latest ART advances in Tube
Microphone Preamps. The DPS II adds continously variable input impedance, LED
input meters, auto mic/instrument switching, OPL flexability and more tube warmth to
the DPS.
Twin high performance discrete preamplifiers with local feedback are coupled with
our flexible Variable Valve Voicing 12AX7A gain stage (which delivers both flexibility
and consistency in settings) and choice of analog and digital outputs.
The new enhanced mic pre-amp can 20dB peaks while maintaining over
120dB dynamic range and incredibly low distortion. A LED input meter , monitors the
signal level of the input amplifier.
The auto-switching input allows the DPSII rear inputs to stay patched in while you use
the front panel instrument inputs.
Enhancements to our legendary tube stage maintain our classic "warm sound" and
add additional tube voicings specifically tailored to vocal, guitar, bass, and acoustic
instruments making this an incredible DI box.
The enhanced Output Protection Limiting (OPL) is available to control overshoots
and normalize levels before digital clipping occurs .
A versatile insert loop on each channel provides access for additional signal
processing or direct access to our high quality A/D converter. Separate gain controls
on analog and digital outputs allow you to optimize the unit for simultaneous
applications.
Digital outputs include S/PDIF, TOSLINK or ADAT (front panel selectable). The A/D is
front panel adjustable from 44.1 to 96K or syncs to ADAT or external word clock
(32KHZ to 100KHz). You can patch into any ADAT stream and select which pair (or
ALL) of channels the DIO Preamp System transmits.
The DI/O Preamp System also features ART A to D digital conversion and ART Tube
Technology similar to that of the ART DI/O. This ensures that when you are going from
the analog preamplification to digital, your signal will be as warm and musical as
you decide it to be. The DPS does digital right!
The DIO Preamp System was conceived, designed and manufactured to the
highest standards to provide years of quiet, reliable performance. Audition one
