TPS II : Great character PreAmp

8 years ago

Hi all,

I have been using this pre in my studio for quite a few years now and even though I have far more expensive Pre's I still use the TPS II .

If you are looking for a pristine sound you may not get that but I love to use the OPL limiting to get harmonics and a bit of drive on my top and bottom snare.

I also find it warm and present on acoustic guitars.

The only issue I have had with it is that the lights over the meters dies last year. Other than that it still works a treat and is well worth stepping through presets for interesting sounds.
