Fearn LP-1 Line Pad is a two-channel accessory for use with the VT-1 or VT-2 Vacuum Tube Microphone Preamplifiers. It is simply a high-quality bridging-type pad that accepts line-level inputs (+4 dBm nominal) and produces a mic level output. The actual pad loss is 45 dB. When used in conjunction with the VT-1 or VT-2 Input Pad (-20 dB), it allows the mic preamp to accommodate line-level signals from consumer-level (-10 dBV) to high professional levels (+10 dBm or more).<\/h3>\n<p>The LP-1 is packaged in a heavy-duty die-cast aluminum box, painted with the same high-quality red paint and gold silk-screened labels as the other D.W. Fearn products. The Input and Output connectors are gold-contact XLR.<\/p>\n<p>The LP-1 is typically used when the subtle signal-modifying characteristics of the VT-1 or VT-2 are needed on a line-level source, such as a previously-recorded track, or at the end of a processing chain. Several LP-1\/VT-2 owners use the combination on the overall mix. At least one CD mastering facility uses the LP-1\/VT-2 in the mastering chain.<\/p>\n<p>The LP-1\/VT-2 combination can also often be used to effectively salvage tracks that are otherwise too distorted or \u201cedgy\u201d for master use.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT NOTE:<\/strong> The LP-1 is not a \u201cdirect box.\u201d In most applications, the LP-1 cannot be used to record an electric or electronic musical instrument such as an electric bass guitar, synthesizer, etc. For direct recording of electric instruments, you need either the <em>D.W. Fearn VT-I\/F Vacuum Tube DI<\/em>, or the <em>D.W. Fearn Passive Direct Box<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El Line Pad D.W.
