From Our Research Team:The sound of Abbey Road in your Rack!Capturing the magic of the original equipment found in Abbey Road Studios - the same equipment used for the Beatle albums, not to mention Dark Side of the Moon - Chandler has brought the sound of the most famous studio in the world to engineers the world over. The preamp section of the TG Channel beautifully replicates the sound of the original, and, to many ears, possibly improves the high-end response. The EQ section provides Pultec-style control over the sound, and, like a vintage unit, the sound is sweetened just by passing through it. The recordings done with the original gear are still reference points for both musicians and engineers. Now you can own the same gear!The Chandler Limited Channel is a recreation of several classic circuits and combines a TG2 pre amp section with an equalizer that was redesigned from an equalization circuit used in the TG12410 Transfer or mastering console. The mastering counterpart to the original "Beatles desks". The Chandler Limited version has been remade using original design information and circuit board drawings as provided by Abbey Road to ensure extreme authenticity! Chandler Limited even remolded the old TG style pointer knobs. The active portions of the unit use the same discrete amplifiers and transformers as in the TG1 Limiter and TG2 pre amp. The passive equalizer portion of the EQ is an all inductor design and offers sweet high frequencies with large inductor based lows, and a very high "Q" mid cut section. Designed to sound like a fine musical instrument instead of a modern surgical tool, it's sound is very comparable to Pultec and Lang program EQs but made from TG circuits. A simple description would be a TG Pultec with a TG pre amp thrown in...very cool! Note: Power Supply sold separately. Chandler Limited TG Channel MkII Features:

I love all Chandler products. Emmet Andrews helped me pick this gear out to help tame the high frequencies in solo violin recording. Yes, I am not a rocker, I am a composer and multi-instrumentalist a... read more [+]nd I record for film all types of acoustic instruments. Many people think open, transparent pre's are the way to go for acoustic/jazz/classical/world etc. For my needs in the digital realm I find a more colored sound is useful to contrast with the digital aspects of ITB recording. This pre is still open and big though! I track everything through it, horns, percussion, vocals, cello, violin.April 9, 2012 Music Background: Composer, Recording Engineer, Pro musician, Multi-instrumentalist You hear alot about how these things do wonders for electric guitar. But let me tell you, they "rock" for the non-rock recording engineer. The eq is great, although you can only boost the high frequencies, the cuts occur only in the mids around 300-700. The low boost and low cut is very nice, but if you do most of your eq'ing in the box and aren't tracking too much drum kit, you might consider the Chandler TG2 for stereo recording. This said, I still found the pre itself was so warm and juicy that it worked great for making the violin velvety thick (especially when I use a Royer 121 on it. You can't get much darker than that). I never ever have any trouble getting things to cut through just cuz it's a tad on the colored side. If you want brighter but still juicy, just pick a different mic. I have yet to dislike anything Chandler, even their plug-ins are phenomenal. close [-] Already a Classic

You can also use just the line input, for the great eq section, with other preamps you have for even more tonal colors. This TG sounds like a classic! close [-]
