Description

All things that pass through the BC-24v are suffused with vintage attitude, attributable to a germanium circuit. I've recorded and mastered through a genuine Neve console, and there is Neve "depth" to this preamp. (I have the box and the manual. Let's continue.)INTANGIBLESSome call it Neve "soul," and that fits because the color and feel out of this preamp form a metaphysical union with your signal and your fingers. It's not an addition; it's transfiguration. Again, kind of a Neve thing. 24-V POWER & WHY IT MATTERSWith the internal 24-volt power, bottom-end is always going to be there, and so is plenty of headroom (just like an amp; you can put a lot of signal through the Broadcast 24V, and it's not going break up).SPECIFICATIONS (TRANSLATED)Selected Germanium transistor - This should read "Custom Selected Germanium Transistors," and that means "high-quality."Triad Magnetics steel-core transformer - It's transformer-coupled, so there's no gain-staging. See "Gain Trim and Low Cut belowAlpha Heavy duty footswitch (wired for true bypass) - Stomp-box worthy. This is a tank.Hand-built, assembled, hand-wired, tested and packaged all by Michael Hudson. This may be true for the LTD editions. It runs of a PCB with hand-wiring. Current Draw: 50ma @ 9VCONTROLSLEVEL – Volume, man. GAIN SWITCH – Low, medium or high gain. Left is low, and right is high. These two controls are special.GAIN TRIM – The gain trim rolls off the high-end at higher gain settings. With my Gibson, I don't hear it. With my Stratocaster on bridge pick-up, I do. How does that work?LOW CUT – Attenuates low-end, of courtse, but also interacts with gain controls. It's voodoo. You have to hear it. NOT A GAIN STACKED OVERDRIVERemember that this pedal is transformer-coupled, so there are not separate channels. It's not a gain-stacked overdrive. How does it respond to pick-ups? With humbuckers, it's plug and play. With single coils, tweaking is required, and there's more gain variance. Some like that. Some don't. How should you use it? As a clean boost (left setting) or right before a boost (middle position). It plays well with other pedals. Should you buy it? Yes. Why else would you be reading this?
