{"product_id":"chandler-limited-redd-47-208437","title":"REDD.47","description":"\u003ch3\u003eFrom the EMI REDD.51 Console to Today's Racks: The Legacy of the REDD.47\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Chandler Limited \u003cstrong\u003eREDD.47\u003c\/strong\u003e is directly inspired by the EMI REDD.47 tube amplifier, a central module of the \u003cstrong\u003eEMI REDD.51\u003c\/strong\u003e consoles used at Abbey Road Studios between \u003cstrong\u003e1959 and 1968\u003c\/strong\u003e. At the time, this type of amplification was involved in many stages of a console's audio chain: mic and line inputs, effects sends, returns, and monitor outputs. It is precisely this sonic signature, associated with mid-60s Abbey Road productions, that Chandler Limited revives in a rack format designed for integration into today's studios.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For and What Are Its Studio Uses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe REDD.47 is aimed at sound engineers, producers, and musicians seeking a \u003cstrong\u003etube mic preamp\u003c\/strong\u003e with a strong character, capable of adding density and impact right at the source. On vocals, it delivers natural presence and projection\u0026#59; on drums (overheads, room, snare), it enhances attack and energy feel\u0026#59; on guitar or bass via the instrument input, it adds thickness and harmonic detail that sits easily in a mix. It's an excellent choice when you want an authentic vintage color without sacrificing essential features like pad, phase, and phantom power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTone, Gain, and Control: Features That Make the Difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eUsable Tube Saturation, from Clean to Drive\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the major strengths of this Chandler Limited version lies in its \u003cstrong\u003eincreased gain\u003c\/strong\u003e compared to the original design. This headroom allows working with very clean takes, preserving high detail, or pushing the circuit to achieve a denser, more aggressive \u003cstrong\u003eharmonic saturation\u003c\/strong\u003e typical of '60s aesthetics. The pre-clipping behavior, specified at \u003cstrong\u003e2% harmonic distortion\u003c\/strong\u003e, makes the drive more gradual and musical-ideal for imprinting a strong character at the source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIntegrated Modern Recording Tools\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the studio, versatility also means control. The \u003cstrong\u003e-20 dB pad\u003c\/strong\u003e helps manage very loud sources (brass, drums, amps), while the \u003cstrong\u003ephase inversion\u003c\/strong\u003e aids in optimizing coherence when using multiple microphones. The \u003cstrong\u003esubsonic filter\u003c\/strong\u003e cleans up vibrations, mic stand noise, or rumble to preserve headroom before saturation and achieve a clearer low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTransformers, Tubes, and the \"Console\" Feel\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe REDD.47 relies on a vintage-style audio path, with \u003cstrong\u003ebalanced transformers\u003c\/strong\u003e on input and output to recover that full, solid response often associated with historic consoles. The \u003cstrong\u003eEF86\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eE88CC\u003c\/strong\u003e tubes contribute to the sonic texture, natural compression, and the \"glue\" sensation in the low mids. The result: a preamp that doesn't just amplify but actively shapes the captured sound's identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePrecise Controls: Detented Steps + Fine Adjustment\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main \u003cstrong\u003edetented gain control\u003c\/strong\u003e offers appreciated reproducibility during sessions, while the \u003cstrong\u003evariable fine adjustment\u003c\/strong\u003e allows precise level setting, dialing in saturation points, or maintaining the same tone at different volumes. This combination makes the REDD.47 equally comfortable in a \"commit\" recording approach or a more flexible workflow where every decibel counts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of channels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRack unit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTubes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eEF86, E88CC\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chandler Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358258254099,"sku":"208437","price":2899.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/bd15ca6c28101f0612dfdcc33c15cf2f427452cf_CHANDLER_REDD47.jpg?v=1787336642","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/chandler-limited-redd-47-208437","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
