Avedis Audio MA5 Mic Pre (500 Series)

Avedis Audio MA5 Mic Pre (500 Series)

This Mic Pre has the feel of an early 70's British console. (Can you say Neve flavor?) Even with their extensive experience restoring vintage boards, it still took Avedis more than a year to engineer this module and make sure the sound signature was right. They did a great job. That slightly smeared sound (we mean that in a very good way) that lit up your favorite cuts is now available for you in a convenient 500 series format.

First 500 series rental includes the API 6 slot lunchbox and is $35/day, $140/week. Each additional unit is only $20/day, $80/week.

Radial Re-amper Kit

Radial Re-amper Kit

This is an essential tool for guitarists and bassists. The standard kit comes with the X-Amp along with a J48 active direct box and is the go-to tool for a majority of re-amping applications. The X-Amp gets the signal out of the box and ready to plug into the front end of any amp. (As in; "This would have sounded better through a real Plexi, or a Deluxe, or a Valco, or a Matchless...") Now you can. We decided to add one extra element and give you the choice of the J48 or the Radial JDI MkIII passive direct box. The thing people rave about with the JDI is the Jensen transformer and that little extra color it provides. You choose which way you want to go. All of this and it’s the least expensive thing we rent. Only $5/day or $20/week when you rent anything else from us. Perhaps a Plexi, or Deluxe, or Valco, or Matchless, or a mic, or a pre-amp………
