Applied Research and Technology is now shipping the new DPS (DIO Preamp System). The DPS features ART's proprietary V3 (Variable Valve Voicing) 12AX7A gain stage. V3 delivers multiple tube voicings specifically tailored to vocals, guitar, bass, synths and acoustic instruments. The DPS features twin high performance discrete preamplifiers with local feedback. Enhancements to the tube stage maintain our classic warm sound, and the preamp design can accept +20dB peaks while maintaining over 120dB dynamic range and low distortion. ARTs OPL Output Protection Limiter is available to control overshoots and normalize levels before digital clipping occurs. High-Z instruments or balanced microphone signals are input through front and rear panel jacks. Unique to its' class, the unit provides level monitoring via two linear analog meters. The DPS offers a choice of both analog and digital outputs. Digital outputs include S/PDIF, TOSLINK or ADAT (front panel selectable). The A/D is front panel adjustable from 44.1 to 96K or syncs to ADAT or external word clock (32KHZ to 100KHz). You can patch into any ADAT stream and select which pair (or all) of channels the DPS transmits. A versatile insert loop on each channel provides access for additional signal processing or direct access to our high quality A/D converter. Separate gain controls on analog and digital outputs allow you to optimize the unit for simultaneous applications. The new ART DPS has an MSRP of $319.00.
