{"product_id":"grace-design-felix-2-191704","title":"Felix 2","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA \"studio tool\" that has become a benchmark for amplified acoustics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned and manufactured in Lyons, Colorado (USA), the Grace Design \u003cstrong\u003eFELiX2\u003c\/strong\u003e follows the brand's \"pro audio\" tradition: an open sound, comfortable dynamic headroom, and a very rigorous approach to power supply and grounding to maintain a clean signal on stage. The microphone section carries the spirit of Grace Design preamps, with a \u003cstrong\u003etrans-impedance\u003c\/strong\u003e architecture inherited from the m101 and no electrolytic capacitors in the audio path, preserving precision and transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis FELiX2 version pushes stage use even further (stereo, more flexible effects loop, more surgical notch filter, revised power supply, side protections) while retaining the DNA: offering musicians a compact solution that advantageously replaces a rack chain (preamp, EQ, DI, routing, and monitoring).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for and in what contexts the FELiX2 makes a difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe FELiX2 is aimed at demanding musicians who want to retain \u003cstrong\u003ethe natural sound of their instrument\u003c\/strong\u003e once amplified: acoustic guitarists, double bass players, violinists, mandolin players, banjo, oud, cello... It's also a formidable tool for sound engineers and venues seeking a stable, quiet source that's easy to integrate with a console.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cstrong\u003elive\u003c\/strong\u003e settings, it excels when quickly managing instrument changes (A\/B mode), compensating for difficult room acoustics (HPF\/Notch + parametric mids), or sending a controlled signal to the front of house via the DI outputs. In \u003cstrong\u003estudio\u003c\/strong\u003e, it provides a clean preamp and fine control over phase and EQ for \"microphone + piezo\" systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControls, routing, and innovations: designed for the stage with a studio logic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach channel features a powerful yet intuitive correction section: a \u003cstrong\u003e20 Hz to 1 kHz filter\u003c\/strong\u003e (12 dB per octave slope) configurable as a \u003cstrong\u003eHPF\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eNotch\u003c\/strong\u003e filter to target problematic frequencies. The \u003cstrong\u003eparametric mids\u003c\/strong\u003e offer two selectable ranges (low frequencies or upper mids) with adjustable bandwidth (Q): perfect for recovering pick attack, reducing \"boxiness,\" or taming harshness without altering the timbre. The bass and treble shelving EQs are calibrated to remain musical even with significant boosts or cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pedalboard integrates three key functions: \u003cstrong\u003eMute\/Tune\u003c\/strong\u003e (general cut with tuner output preserved), \u003cstrong\u003eBoost\u003c\/strong\u003e (up to about +10 dB depending on front panel setting, ideal for solos), and \u003cstrong\u003eA\/B switching\u003c\/strong\u003e (switching between channels for two instruments or two sources). Regarding connectivity, the FELiX2 plays the \"all-in-one\" card: instrument inputs, microphone input with \u003cstrong\u003e+48 V phantom power\u003c\/strong\u003e, two transformer-isolated DI outputs with source selection (mix or channel), amp output(s) with dedicated level, insert and effects loop, plus an always-active \u003cstrong\u003e3.5 mm mini-jack headphone output\u003c\/strong\u003e for silent practice or headphone monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe FELiX2 aims for \u003cstrong\u003efaithful and detailed\u003c\/strong\u003e reproduction: it does not artificially compress dynamics or smooth out playing nuances. The sensation is of a \"larger\" and better-controlled sound, with \u003cstrong\u003eimmediate responsiveness\u003c\/strong\u003e to right-hand variations, harmonics, and pickup level changes. The EQ is designed to stay musical but precise enough for live reality: effective notch against feedback, parametric mids to reposition the instrument in the mix, and filters to clean sub-bass without thinning the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn practice, this type of preamp is appreciated by musicians demanding high-end sound in real conditions, including stage and studio artists: bluegrassman \u003cstrong\u003eBryan Sutton\u003c\/strong\u003e notably praised the preamp's quality, and violinist \u003cstrong\u003eZach Brock\u003c\/strong\u003e (Snarky Puppy) has been associated with the use of this product family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
