Michael Sweet's signature tone is now within reach through the EMPYREAN PREAMP PEDAL, a dual-channel powerhouse that brings professional studio-quality sound to your guitar rig. This sophisticated preamp features both Clean and Distortion channels, each equipped with comprehensive tone controls including Gain, Bass, semi-parametric Swept Midrange (300Hz to 3KHz), and Treble. The Clean channel provides pristine clarity whilst the Distortion channel offers everything from subtle crunch to extreme high-gain saturation.
For players seeking maximum overdrive potential, the Clean Channel can be switched to push the Distortion channel beyond 160dB of gain. Additional features include a foot-switchable Volume Boost for cutting through the mix during solos, plus an effects loop for integrating your favourite pedals. The Distortion channel also includes advanced tone-shaping options with a switchable 300Hz high-pass filter to tighten low frequencies and a 3KHz low-pass filter for focused high-end response.
Built-in Decimator X noise reduction technology (G String version) tracks your direct guitar input to maintain dead-quiet performance even at extreme gain levels. The pedal operates on an external 9VAC power supply that's internally multiplied to provide ±15 volt rails, ensuring true professional headroom and full utilisation of the pro-studio quality equalisation circuitry.
