more than happy to answer any questions you have. The Afterburner
is still in the design phase as indicated on the website, but it is based on
the attenuator and passive speaker-level cab sim currently used in my Invader
amplifier. I just have to come up with a nice-looking mechanical package
to stick it in. :)
>Randall Aiken
Twelve attenuator positions, -3dB increments, 0 to 30dB
attenuation.�
Load position for silent recording [or to form a power-tube saturation stage
for a 3-stage amp-rig such as Guytron or Rail Rocket].
Presents a speaker-impedance load to the amp, or a resistive load.
Passive.
Low impedance, transformer-balanced XLR output. Can run XLR Out to one mixer
channel and blend with miked cab in another channel.
Can adjust stage volume using attenuator control, with constant XLR level for
mixer.
Ground lift switch (to eliminate ground-loop hum).
Top-quality components.� Magnetically
shielded inductors, precision resistors, and Neutrik/Switchcraft connectors
Inputs: 1/4" unbalanced phone jack for input from tube power amp. 100W
max.
Two 1/4" speaker jacks. Output impedance: 4, 8, or 16 ohms; matches input
impedance. Selectable 4, 8, or 16 ohms.
Includes a speaker emulator with transformer-isolated balanced output. XLR
balanced, line-level, speaker-emulating output (Pin 1: ground, Pin 2: +, Pin 3:
-).� 100 ohms output impedance
Price TBD.� Planned available February,
2001.
