Description

The EDB-2 VAP is a versatile tube preamp and analog audio processor. Its ample gain and headroom allow you to connect a wide variety of acoustic instruments, providing powerful support for solving problems and improving sound quality on stage.

It allows you to adjust the tone of acoustic instruments, which are difficult to create, at your fingertips, adding warmth to the sound and helping to eliminate the piezo-like sound and feedback that can be a problem with piezo pickups.

The 2-channel design allows you to connect two instruments simultaneously, or use two different pickups on one instrument. It supports a wide range of input impedances and even allows phase reversal between channels.

This harmonic enhancer uses our proprietary HEAT (Harmonic Enhanced Analog Technology) function to add even harmonics 1 to 1.5 octaves above 1 kHz, adding a sense of "sparkle."
Additionally, the Blend control knob adds rich harmonics from the two-stage tube circuit, which mixes in some even harmonics that are perceived as warmth primarily in the low-mid frequencies.


◆Main features◆
