This all-tube, two rackspace instrument is the latest in the legendary Rectifier line of amplifiers and after two years of intense R & D, is ready to wear the logo thatsignifies its status as a full blown Recto. This preamp is designed to replicate direct, the sound and feel of the Dual Rectifier Solo Headpushing a Rectifier 4x12 mic’ed up in a good room without the power amp, speaker and microphone. A huge challenge considering 75%of the ingredients historically used to achieve great recorded guitar sounds are missing! We think you will be as pleased as we are with theresults upon your first direct experience with this toneful piece. As well as great direct sounds, the Recto pre packs all the urgent authorityof its forefathers into this rack format and is an equally powerful live preamp as well. When combined with its mate, the Rectifier Stereo2:100, these two create an all-tube stereo wall of crushing Recto aggression.Six 12AX7A preamp tubes create the 6 modes in the 2 discreet channels. The top Clean Channel offers CLEAN, FAT and BRIT modes forthree distinct styles of rhythm work. The bottom Lead channel is comprised of the three signature sounds from the Dual and Triple RectoHeads RAW, VINTAGE and MODERN.A PARALLEL EFFECTS LOOP with a MIX Control is provided to ensure tonal integrity when using outboard processing. Buffered StereoRECORD OUTPUTS are balanced 1/4” TRS type jacks. The LIVE OUTPUTS are also Stereo and both RECORD and LIVE outputsinclude the Return signal from the Effects Loop, so that processing may be printed and used live simultaneously.EXTERNAL SWITCH jacks are provided to access the Channels and the SOLO feature remotely from an external midi controller. A triggerport for the switchable MODERN feature on the matching RECTIFIER STEREO 2:100 or STEREO SIMUL-CLASS 2:90 poweramps is also included and ensures gain sounds will be ferocious.A 2 button Footswitch provides instant access to the Channels and SOLO® feature for live performance applications. We’ve also includeda cool switching feature that allows you to switch between the CHANNEL 2 VINTAGE and MODERN modes when the Footswitch isconnected, giving you 3 footswitchable sounds from a 2 Channel platform!
