Little Devil Pre Amp | Chandler Limited

CHANDLER LIMITED furiously enters the 500 race with its new line of 500 Series Modules for your favorite lunch box! Using all discrete circuits that combine Chandler's best designs with the hottest designs from the past, transformer balanced everything, and the American handmade quality you expect from Chandler, the 500 Series Modules will take your lunchbox or rack system to the next level!

Unbalanced direct input for guitar, bass, keyboards, etc. plugging in here bypasses the input transformer and jumps directly into the class A input of the pre amp. We chose to do this on many of our products because the tone is so much different than that on readily available direct boxes.

Acts as a fader on a mixing console and is used to trim the signal of the pre or when you want to experiment with driving the input signal to varying degrees.

Gently sloping low cut at 100HZ.

Increases high frequency information on the output tranformer by lessoning dampening.

48V – Yep, it’s 48-volt phantom power. Phase - reverses the output polarity of the unit at the output transformer.

There are three different input types on the Little Devil Pre-Amp. Mic/Line switches between two of them – the transformer balanced mic or line inputs. The Little Devil 500 pre is more than just a mic pre, it's a processor. Swithcing to line input processes any line level source such as tape or DAW tracks, buss submixes or the complete stereo buss. For unbalanced sources, such as bass and keyboards, select the DI input.

Selects low or high impedance for both mic and line.

Changes the bias and negative feedback of the class A gain circuit. This control changes frequency response in the high and low areas, harmonic distortion, nature of clipping and the overall tonal characteristic of the pre amp. Set it to soft clip and it increases the harmonics exponentially, giving it an “overbiased” class A personality or an in-you-face full sound.

Changes the bias and negative feedback of the class A gain circuit.

Set it to soft clip and it increases the harmonics exponentially, giving it an “over-biased” class A personality or an in-your-face full sound.

Up to 66DB of gain. Use this in combination with feedback/bias to drive and shape the tone of the unit.

We've been told by beta testers that this might be the best piece of Chandler gear yet! What makes the Little Devil Pre so special? Well, several things.

The Class A gain stage sounds like no other design we've done. It's big, yet open and full of life. Just about any parameter of the sound is changeable including the ability to change both the Feedback and Bias of the amplifier. The Feedback control increases harmonics thousands of times over the range of the control. The nature of clipping and distortion also changes and ranges from soft Class A clipping to super soft gushy tube type. The sounds range from a very colored and "overbiased" tone to a gently colored and "in your face" tone.

Other features of the Little Devil Pre include High and Low input impedance; transformer balanced line in for using the Devil as a color box on mixes or tracks; low cut; bright switch and more! This unit has no power-up issues with lunchboxes and rack systems.

All Chandler 500 series units have now been tested and proven to have no power issues in the following racks:  API 500V 10-slot with L200 PSU; API 500-6B Lunchbox; API 500-6B HC “new version” Lunchbox; BAE 11-slot with power one supply; BAE 6-slot portable with power one supply; BAE 6-slot with Avedis designed supply; A-Designs 2-slot; Purple Sweet 10; and Empirical Labs 2-slot.
