Description

The Transformer is a recording and mixing tool that transform your sound by using several different harmonic stages. The unit is divided into two sections, a harmonic generating section and a transformer coupled class-A stage with a punchy, vintage tone. If you're working mostly in the box this is the perfect tool to add some analog warmth, punch and color to your sound/mix.

The first section contains three different harmonic stages; a transformer saturation stage, a passive saturation/clipping stage and an active germanium circuit. These three stages does not only generate different kinds of harmonics, they also shape the tone curve in different ways.

With a blend function you can blend in the desired amount of harmonics. You can also choose to process the mid and side channels separately by activating the M/S function. The second section is a selectable vintage transformer coupled class-A stage.

Features

Transformer saturation circuit that adds low-end harmonics and a low-end bump.

Passive saturation circuit that adds a lot of odd and even harmonics.

Active germanium stage with a vintage sound and a mix of harmonics.

Class-A stage with a pleasant British 70's sound.

M/S function for separate processing of the mid and side channels.

Illuminated switches and detented potentiometers for easy recall.
