Sammelbestellung Dexter's Preamp (Alembic F2B Clone)

[DeXTeR]

The DI output will be at the end of the chain - also a TS output will be available also at the end of the chain. I can't see the advantage to have a DIY pre or post eq as the output of the preamp is balanced via DI hmmm i hope i've understood the question.

One more question to the new preamp:

Is the DI-Signal switchable pre-/post-EQ?

I want to give a clean Instrument signal to the mixer.

I'm very happy with my "old" Dexter's Preamp but reducing the DI-Box would be a great thing and spends more place on the board.

A mute button? I do think that can be possible to add a FS to mute the input.
I will look into it and see if i have more space

@DeXTeR
Could you possibly throw in an on/off-switch? This would be a great feature for changing basses without having to turn down the volume knob on the pre if once set. I would appreciate this very much.

@DeXTeR in case i would come to Bukarest in Summer, is there any problem with taxes or police controls?

 

[DeXTeR]

Whaaaa?? What taxex? What police control?!
We are in EU

Okay And when i want to take them with me to an aeroplane? That would be no problem with duty?

 

[DeXTeR]

It would be a problem with the weight ... but not with the merchandise.

Sorry, what Do you mean with TS output?

Edit:
Vielleicht könnte mir ja jemand auf Deutsch weiterhelfen?
My English is not at its bässt time

Hat man beim neuen Preamp auch die Möglichkeit, ein unbearbeitetes Instrumentensignal zu bekommen?

 

[DeXTeR]

The preamp will have a normal jack input (that is called TS - tip sleave) and the output will be XLR and mono jack (also a TS output)
What do you mean unprocessed instrument?

@f_luxus - could you help us a little bit here?

You could take my place

 

[Gast51645]

You could take my place

late and cutting in line - awesome - but id prefer everybody else to move one place to the front - number 19 should do the trick for me

@DeXTeR :
Thank you for your patience.

Let me try once more:
With this preamp, for example, i can send a clean instrument signal or a preamp-influenced DI-signal to the FOH:

With your new Dexter's Preamp it's not possible to send a clean instrument signal?

Am I right with this guess?

 

[DeXTeR]

Aaaa now i get what you are saying.
Basically you would like also a buffered output of clean unaffected signal - like a direct out
It can be added a clean balanced output (instrument level)

That's great!
Also switchable pre/post - EQ possible? (like the example link)

Or is this an addtional (second) balanced output?

Warum willst du ein unbearbeitetes Signal? Den Preamp hast du ja, um dein Signal mit der Röhre anzureichern. Das Tonestack kann man schon linear/neutral einstellen ...

 

[bassdscho]

Ich dachte halt, dass der Mann am Pult immer lieber ein unbearbeitetes Signal haben möchte weil er damit besser klar kommt als mit einen zu sehr verfärbten Signal.
Ich hab das irgendwo mal so aufgeschnappt, für richtig angenommen, nie anders praktiziert und gut gefahren damit.
Aber ich freu mich da auch sehr über "andere" Erfahrungen.
Vielleicht liege ich da völlig falsch und habe unbegründete Ängste

Bitte kläre mich auf wie Du/ihr das seht.

 

[f_luxus]

Ich seh das auch ähnlich. Bisher haben sich noch alle Tontechniker über das Dexter Signal gefreut

 

[DeXTeR]

The problem is the fact that on the PA ... if you are going to use the raw signal ... you will be as directly connected to the mixer... and that kinda defies the purpose of the preamp, which actually is a tool that stays between the Bass Guitar and the mixer(PA) - having a clean signal to FOH would mean that you would be the only one on the stage that would listen to that preamp and that in case you can use an amp and have the output of the preamp connected to that amp...
So as a conclusion, a raw(clean) signal would render the preamp totally useless
