HUDSON ELECTRONICS Broadcast 24V-DUAL-JPN [Germanium Preamp]

Introducing the Broadcast Dual Foot Switch, a domestic limited edition model "Broadcast 24V-DUAL-JPN" produced in a limited run of 40 units!

The 9V power supply is internally boosted to 24V, operating at high voltage and ensuring headroom.

In addition, you can switch between gain modes with the foot switch, and each mode has its own level control.



Broadcast features a discrete, transformer-coupled, Class-A germanium circuit inspired by classic 1960s recording consoles. This circuitry saturates and colors the signal in a unique way, allowing for sharp clean boosts, delicately colored and thick signals with frayed edges, or pushed for fuzzy, frizzy, and characterful overdrive sounds.



The 24V-DUAL-JPN utilizes this classic transformer-coupled, discrete, Class A germanium circuit, powered internally by 24V from a standard 9V power supply. The increased voltage provides more headroom and tighter low frequencies. It's ideal for those seeking reduced saturation and harshness without sacrificing the distinctive Broadcast sound. The 24V-DUAL-JPN features a right footswitch for selecting gain mode (LOW or HIGH) (a blue LED illuminates when in HIGH gain mode), and independent level controls for each mode. Additionally, the 24V-DUAL-JPN features an internal trimmer for fine-tuning the gain in HIGH mode.



■Details

・Germanium transistor

Specially selected TRIAD Magnetics steel core transformer

・BI Technologies potentiometer

- Highly durable Alpha foot switch (rated for over 30,000 cycles)



Left switch – bypasses the pedal (red LED indicates the pedal is active)



Right switch - toggles between low and high gain modes (blue LED indicates high gain mode is selected)



LEVEL LOW – Controls the volume of the pedal in LOW gain mode



LEVEL HIGH – Controls the volume of the pedal in HIGH gain mode



GAIN TRIM – Controls the gain level (both low and high gain modes) (higher settings gently roll off the high frequencies of the signal)



LOW CUT - Attenuates low frequencies (this control is at the front of the broadcast circuit, so it works in conjunction with the GAIN control)



Internal trimmer – Adjusts the amount of gain in high gain mode. Settings range from a slight gain boost to full fuzz in high gain mode.



DC Socket - Broadcast requires a DC power supply unit (PSU). Please make sure the PSU provides 9V, a minimum of 50mA, and has a 2.1mm center negative plug. Using any other type of PSU may damage the pedal. If sharing the same PSU with other pedals, we recommend using a PSU with isolated outputs.



Power supply: 9VDC center negative

*Please do not use a power supply other than 9V due to the internal voltage boost. This will void the warranty.

Current consumption ? Max. 50mA
