Ian Dittbrenner of Yahoo! Music shows off some of his A-Designs microphone preamplifiers.
Yahoo! Music recently completed a technical upgrade and redesign of its main audio production and post-production studio in Santa Monica, CA, that included the installation of a dozen A-Designs Audio 500 series microphone preamplifier modules. Included in the complement are four P-1 modules plus two each of the EM-Red, EM-Blue, EM-Silver and EM-Gold modules.
A-Designs Audio's EM Series modules feature custom-wound transformers that produce tonal colorations that make each particularly suited to specific sources or microphone types.
The four P-1 modules at the Yahoo! Originals studio are installed in a 10-slot API 500VPR rack alongside the pair of EM-Gold modules in the studio's equipment credenza. The other six modules are housed in an API Lunchbox. A-Designs is a member of the VPR Alliance, which has guidelines for manufacturers producing modules to fit into API Audio's 500 series rack format.
