Thermionic Culture Culture Vulture Studio Tube Distortion / Enhancer

Description: Category 500 Series Modular Synth Keyboards Microphones Preamps Dynamics Equalizers Monitoring Computer Audio Interfaces Software Beat Production Thermionic Culture VultureOriginally designed as a "distortion box" to simulate distortion in valve amps, the Thermionic Culture Vulture has found lots of uses beyond this. We know that some owners use them on drum loops, vocals, piano sounds and even across entire tracks (it is a stereo unit). We have refined this so that distortion figures are reduced to only 0.2% at lowest to about 99.9% (at least that's what our distortion meter tells us!). Predominant distortion can be changed from even to odd harmonics with a simple switch. We know it's recently been rented to mix a JAMES BOND movie! Key Features: Warm sounds gently or create a noise like a 200 watt guitar stack with all the drivers slashed. Independent channel operation Odd or even harmonic distortion, or combination of both. All valve design free from solid state additives. High impedance line input or instrument inputs. 4 & 7 kHz filters Overdrive & bypass switches Some Cultured users... Because of their unique blend of flexibility, musicality, and usability, brought about as a result of being hand-built by some of the worlds leading pro audio valve equipment designers and engineeers, Thermionic Culture products attract their fair share of high profile, industry leading producers and engineers from the world of recording technology.
