A Heritage from Great British Consoles
This module follows in the footsteps of the "XL4" preamps and filters, a studio and live standard praised for their ability to sculpt the low and high spectrum with musicality. Designed and developed in the UK, it transposes this legendary DNA into a modern modular format ready to integrate into your recording chain.
Built for Demanding Studios and Mobile Creators
Whether you are a sound engineer, producer, or content creator, this Series 500 preamplifier offers a reliable and inspiring entry point. In a home studio, it immediately enhances the clarity of vocals and instruments. In a professional studio, it brings a controlled British character, with quick ergonomics that easily fit into session, broadcast, or sound design workflows.
Features Designed for Speed and Musicality
The heart of this module rests on a carefully calibrated preamplification stage to preserve dynamics while adding the expected touch of warmth. The filters inherited from the XL4 series allow cleaning of extreme lows or gradual control of high frequencies for cleaner recordings right from the source. The Series 500 format guarantees simple integration, easy maintenance, and the possibility to build a custom chassis according to your needs.
Classic XL4 Filters, Immediate Control
The XL4-inspired filters are renowned for their musical curve and effectiveness. They help tame plosives, reduce unwanted resonances, or smooth excessive brightness, all without altering the sonic material.
Modular Format, British Reliability
The choice of the Series 500 format offers mobility and scalability, while the UK design ensures rigorous construction and consistent performance over time, essential for intensive production environments.
