Create your own dual-channel preamp to extend your sonic palette.

The A-Designs 500 Series Package gives you the freedom to add preamp modules to the A-Designs 500HR rack-mounted frame in order to suit your sound needs. The 500HR is a dual-slot single-space rack-mounted frame with power supply for A-Designs and other 500 Series compatible audio modules.

You can create your own dual-channel preamp with one or two tone colors by selecting any combination of two of the following preamp modules:

A-Designs P1 Single Channel Microphone Preamp Module (see model #189906)
The P1 is the 500 Series version of the award-winning, best-selling Pacifica.

•A-Designs 500-Red Microphone Preamplifier (see item #189907)
The EM-Red features more "up-front" mids and is great for recording acoustic guitar is a condenser mic, as well as rack and floor toms.

•A-Designs 500-Blue Microphone Preamplifier (see item #189908)
The EM-Blue emphasizes the highs and produces a much more "airy" top end tone. When used with a "dark"-sounding microphone or an alto vocalist, it can produce an absolutely heavenly sound. You will also find this pre useful for recording a snare drum for that crisp "crack" sound. It's also great for electric guitar.

•A-Designs 500-Silver Microphone Preamplifier (see item •#189909)
The EM-Silver outputs a darker sound than the P-1, EM-Red, and EM-Blue, great for adding body to thin vocals. It s also a very good match with ribbon microphones. Thanks to the DI and its darker sound, the EM-Silver is a great pre for bass guitar and keyboards. Also, you may like to try the EM-Silver (depending on microphone) for your kick when recording drums.

•A-Designs EM-Gold Preamp Module (see item #180029)
The EM-Gold brings more midrange frequencies to the lower end of the sonic spectrum, which makes it an excellent choice for drum miking (toms in particular). It also excels on various guitars (especially if you want that midrange "chunk" that moves the speakers), vocals, MP3/drum machines, and bass.

The 500 Series Package is VPR compliant, and will accept all VPR compatible 500 Series modules, such as API and Empirical Labs (see the DerrEsser de-esser and dynamics module #501577).
