TRIAL DUAL INPUT PREAMP PRO-EQ [Available for immediate delivery]

-Individual equalization of two pickups-
-Multifunctional mixer preamp with built-in dual EQ-

The DUAL INPUT PREAMP series has gained support from many musicians, especially acoustic guitarists, as a mixer preamp with excellent sound quality.
It is a key component of a high-spec dual pickup system, boasting low noise, high durability, and simple, intuitive operation.
The Dual Input Preamp Pro-EQ's Dual EQ allows you to individually equalize each pickup, allowing you to precisely adjust aspects that cannot be controlled through post-mix processing. This is equipment designed to pursue a more vivid and natural acoustic sound.

■Dual EQ that allows you to control the pickups individually
By incorporating an EQ into the mixer preamp, the overall signal path is simplified, enabling low-noise, high-quality EQ processing.

■3-band equalizer designed for musical instruments. The frequency range can be adjusted using the frequency controls for BASS, which has a deep impact, TREBLE, which is responsible for brightness and softness, and MID. The circuit design is suitable for creating sounds that match the instrument and musical expression.

■ Expanded version of the high-spec Dual Input Preamp Professional. Professional-spec sound quality with a high-quality head amplifier and analog mixer. Intuitive operability, highly durable parts selection and design. Further expansion of the highly reliable and functional Dual Input Preamp Professional with features such as a mute switch, tuner out, dual phase switch, and internal gain trim.

■By pre-correcting the sound quality of each pickup before mixing to create a natural acoustic sound system with minimal processing, it is possible to create a high-quality sound with minimal overall correction.


~EQ is a seasoning?!~
EQ (equalizer) is a very useful piece of equipment for changing the sound quality.
While it allows you to pursue the ideal sound, it also has the downside of destroying the original quality of the sound.
To put it in a metaphor, it's like seasoning: if you use the right amount, you can bring out the flavor of the ingredients, but if you use too much, you won't even be able to tell the difference between the ingredients.
The Dual Input Preamp has been developed as a piece of equipment to create the best possible raw conditions.
The concept is to improve the original state and create a more effective sound with minimal post-processing, rather than adding flavor and processing to create the sound you like later.

~The meaning of Dual EQ~
The Dual Input Preamp Pro-EQ has a lot of knobs, allowing for a very wide range of sound creation.
However, this is not intended to create every possible flavor, but rather to bring the product to its best possible state.
By equalizing each pickup individually before mixing, you can make fine adjustments to aspects that cannot be controlled through post-mix processing.
This also reduces the amount of subsequent processing, which ultimately minimizes the total amount of processing required.
It's like marinating the food before cooking so that you don't have to cover it up with a strong seasoning later.

Advantages of Dual Input Preamp Pro-EQ
With conventional dual input preamps, it was possible to adjust the sound quality individually by using dual outputs, but this required the preparation of multiple pieces of additional equipment, which posed practical problems such as the lack of space to set up the equipment and the difficulty of transporting it.
The Dual Input Preamp Pro-EQ, with its built-in dual EQ, solves these problems.
Furthermore, using this equipment simplifies the circuit configuration of the entire system significantly compared to connecting separate pieces of equipment, allowing for EQ adjustments to be made while maintaining low noise and a more realistic sound.

~Tips for use~
The Dual Input Preamp Pro-EQ can make dramatic changes to your sound, but first try turning each knob individually to hear how they affect your sound.
I think the individuality of the instrument and the pickups will emerge.
Then, try adjusting it to your liking. You'll probably start to see what each pickup can improve and what needs to be addressed with EQ.
If you have the right pickups for your instrument, you can get a good sound by adjusting the mix without making major EQ changes.
Try to find the best points while being minimal and effective.
