Built in collaboration with True Systems, this next-generation microphone preamplifier and instrument DI features an updated True Systems preamp core – a design trusted for over two decades in studio, live sound, post-production and educational environments – delivering ultra-high-resolution musicality with condenser, dynamic, ribbon and self-powered tube microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA unique illuminated Cloud Touch Control user interface (patent pending) replaces conventional pushbuttons and toggle switches. Microprocessor-controlled, high-reliability telecom relays handle all signal and function switching for significantly shorter signal paths and reduced EMI sensitivity, while the illuminated controls make preamp status visible from a distance or in low-light environments. A Blink-Delay feature protects against accidental activation of phantom power and high-gain modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoused in the industry-standard API 500 series module format, the TRUE BLUE 520 delivers up to +76dB of total available gain via a continuous detented gain control with dual gain ranges. FET-based DI IN and THRU jacks act as a signal split for simple system integration – route your instrument to the preamp core while passing the signal through to an amp, additional DI or another 500 series module. The continuously variable high-pass filter offers precise low-frequency attenuation from 25Hz to 420Hz, ideal for taming proximity effect and low-mid buildup, with response extending down to 6Hz when disengaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith fully balanced topology, rail-to-rail circuit design for maximum headroom, 0.1% precision resistors and 4-level signal metering, the TRUE BLUE 520 is engineered for stunning accuracy, long-term reliability and outstanding value.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CLOUD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49439278301399,"sku":"CLO-CL520","price":1399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/1521\/9671\/files\/CLO-CL520_1.png?v=1784078541","url":"https:\/\/innovativemusic.com.au\/products\/cloud-true-blue-520-precision-mic-preamp-api-500-series-module-with-76db-ultra-clean-gain-and-cloud-touch-controls","provider":"Sound Distribution - Innovative Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
