Art’s third-generation discrete preamp, the TransX, is a 2-channel mic preamplifier that combines Jensen mic-input transformers and custom output transformers with discrete, high-performance preamplification circuits for a clean, authoritative sound that belies the unit’s modest price tag. The TransX also features per-channel high-impedance instrument inputs and variable impedance on the XLR inputs for mic optimization and tonal shaping.

Features

• Jensen mic input transformer blocks radio frequencies and other noise
• Custom output transformers minimize ground noise and maintain level for both balanced and unbalanced connections
• Discrete low noise, low-THD audio path Low-noise, direct-coupled, high-impedance instrument inputs per-channel
• XLR inputs with variable impedance for mic optimization and tonal shaping
• Rotary switches for precision and accurate recall
• Gain trim function allows precise gain adjustment
• 20dB pads for high-level XLR input signals
• Polarity-reverse switches
• Auto-muting outputs
• Per-channel ground-lifts
