Zinc Duo - Instrument Amplifier
Zinc Duo - because everyone wants TWO.
Zinc Duo is two of our Zinc modules in a single product box.
Zinc is a universal instrument amplifier module
The instrument amp uses the input from the rack, and has a gain range of -20 to +20dB
Switching to the Z-in on the front panel, the gain range becomes 0 to 40dB
The glow function works on either input and introduces valve (tube) distortion (2nd and 3rd harmonics). Try it !
The Z-In Ω rotary switch changes the input impedance of the Z-input, actually changing the tone.
This is most effective on electric guitar, but can be used on anything you like.
Zinc features Barium, our reference bargraph meter.
