The Earthworks 1021, 1022, and 1024 Zero Distortion Preamps are completely free of noise and distortion, and are really a lot like "wire and gain." Such transparency, accuracy and detail in a mic preamp are extremely useful when the sound of the instrument coupled with an amazing microphone should not be compromised. The Earthworks preamp will not add its own coloration and artifacts like just about every other preamp on the market. It is designed to delver the sound coming out of the microphone exactly that way, as if there is no preamp in the signal path whatsoever. In this video we demonstrate this performance through a variety of microphones and sources including recording acoustic guitar, piano, jazz archtop guitar, and electric guitars. Give us a call to discuss this amazing distortion-free preamp, toll free 888.528.9703.

Telefunken AR51 tube microphones beautifully record acoustic guitars with warmth and smoothness in the midrange, a nice tight bottom-end, and an open and brilliant top. In the first segment the mic on the right was placed near the 12th fret of the guitar and the microphone on the left was placed over the guitarist right shoulder. This approach creates a very large and balanced stereo image. As you can hear, these mics are warm and very pleasing in the mid range and articulate in the top end without being overly bright. You will then hear a studio recording of a stereo pair of the Telefunken AR51's on a Martin HD28. In this setup we hear more body from the acoustic due to the placement of the the mics than we did in the previous example, nicely displaying the versatility of the Telefunken AR51's in the recording studios.
