Darkglass Vintage Microtubes
The Darkglass Vintage Microtubes is a tribute to some of the most legendary sounds in rock history.
It provides warm tube-like tones with a natural dynamic response that echoes the organic compression of old tube amps and reel-to-reel tape machines.
Controls:
4 Knobs for ultimate flexibility while keeping the format light and small
- Level: Controls the level of the Overdriven Signal.
- Blend: Allows to mix exactly how much clean signal you want to mix with the Overdriven.
- Drive: Sets the amount of gain for this pedal.
- Era: Interacts beautifully with the Drive knob in order. Recreates some of the greatest landmarks in rock and roll bass history! This control will take you from funk to punk in no time: dial it down to get some of those warm and mid-rangy tones of yore while replicating the subtle compression of tube power amps and tape recorders or crank it up to get the meaner and nastier punchy tones of the 80′s and 90′s.
How does it compare to other models?
The Vintage Microtubes gets a lot cleaner than the Microtubes B3K, but do not worry; there is still more gain than you’ll probably know what to do with.
The Vintage must be powered with a regulated 9V power supply (centre negative). You can also experiment with 12V power supply for extra headroom. For ecological reasons, none of our products will ever again include battery snaps!
Indestructible Relay True bypass! Still True bypass, except that it won’t break. Ever.
Original Design featuring Hybrid JFET and CMOS gain stages for a natural dynamic response.
“What we did for this one was to study the greatest and most legendary bass tones and all the components involved in creating them; amplifier brands, recording techniques, etcetera.
