Chameleon Labs 7603-XMod Mic/Line Pre Amp

Chameleon’s flagship pre-amplifier with a different character and sound from the regular 7603.

The 7603 XMod preamp provides a diverse set of functions making it a flexible unit for creative recording applications. It incorporates a full range of traditional features as well as some not commonly seen on other pre-amps. Displaying the same high dynamics and low distortion as the "vanilla" 7603, the 7603-XMod simply provides a different character to the sound of the pre-amplifier.The XMod features EQ stages with four different available adjustments—Variable High Pass, Low-Frequency Shelving, Mid Frequency and High-Frequency Shelving. It has the same inductor-based topology that made its predecessor, the 7602, so popular, however, it now comes with discrete amps that drive the signal through a set of inductors to provide a musical tone to your recorded source. The output stage of the Xmod is also unique with respect to its design and performance. It can be described as a variable-gain circuit that simultaneously adjusts both the input and output levels in order to generate a lower noise floor and extraordinary audio performance.To get the best performance from lower output microphones like ribbons, the microphone input impedance can be selected between 300 and 1200 ohms, providing a method to match a particular mic to the input stage.  Call or click to order
