Variable Low Cut Filter
An essential standard tool for any preamp is a low cut
for reducing low frequency rumble. Instead of just a
single or maybe two fixed frequencies, the skulpter
500 offers a variable low cut filter with a wide frequency range
from 10 Hz to 375 Hz. The slope of the filter is 12 dB/octave,
and its amplifier is a discrete class-A design optimized for es-
pecially transparent performance.
Balanced DI
The skulpter 500 can handle way more than “just”
your complete microphone locker. An integrated
front panel JFET DI makes it perfect for amplifying
and shaping many kinds of different signals coming from gui-
tars, basses, synths, effects...
The high input impedance of one megohm allows to directly
plug even instruments with passive pickups into the preamp.
On the other hand, the input can also handle high line levels
of up to +19 dBu!
Note:
The DI has priority over the mic input
and will automatically activate when a jack is connected.
