FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
KORG INTRODUCES TP-2 AND TPB-2 TUBE PREAMPS
WITH OPTICAL COMPRESSION
NAMM SUMMER SESSION, NASHVILLE, TN, July 23, 2004 — Korg’s
new Dual Tube Preamp with Optical Compression and Digital Output (TP-2)
provides sound enhancement for any recording application. Similarly,
the new Dual Tube Preamp Board with Optical Compression (TPB-2) offers
the same functionality in a user-installable option to enhance Korg’s
D32XD and D16XD recorders. Both incorporate a specially tuned version
of Korg’s Valve Force™ vacuum tube circuitry (made popular
in the TRITON Extreme and ELECTRIBE•SX/MX) to add analog tube
warmth and richness, as well as high-quality optical compressors that
offer a quick response and transparent character.
Features include:
• Dual, classic-style, analog VU meters
• Valve Force circuitry featuring two 12AX7 tubes
• Two independent channels that can be linked for recording stereo
sources
• Independent phantom power, pad, phase, low cut and Hi-Z switches
for each channel
• Balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs and outputs
• Coaxial and optical digital outputs (TP-2 only)
The Korg TP-2 and TPB-2 will be available in late summer,
with pricing to be announced shortly.
