Full Description

Powerful mic preamps with 'Air' for added sparkle

The Clarett+ 4Pre incorporates four microphone preamps with a low-distortion, ultra-linear design that has been specially crafted to deliver a clean, transparent, and powerful sound. Record guitars, vocals, and more through the four ultra-low noise Clarett+ mic preamps, which provide you with incredibly accurate audio. The preamps have been improved from earlier versions, now complete with impedance switching and relay control for maximum flexibility.
