The SPL Transducer is an analog
cabinet and miking simulator for guitar amplifiers
which was designed in a cooperative developmental
effort with German guitar amp specialists of Tonehunter.
In studio and on stage the Transducer replaces the
guitar speaker cabinet and microphone(s) so that
the time and resource-intensive microphone processing
of this loud sonic source is no longer necessary.
In addition the Transducer offers much more sonic
flexibility and variety than a single mike and cabinet
setup because it allows for varied speaker and mike
simulations while allowing to retain accustomed
features of individual setups (such as the ability
to vary level-dependent loudspeaker characteristics
and microphone distances).
Main advantages
* Authentic sound
qualities and real time response for the guitar
player – in contrast to digital simulations
with latencies in processing
* Independence from volume levels during performances
or recording sessions
* Independence from room acoustics in recordings
* Provides for a live signal in recording quality
without crosstalk from miking
* Great space and weight reduction in transport
Tonehunter
and SPL
The Transducer is a cooperative developmental effort
between the guitar amp firm of Tonehunter and SPL.
It brings together many years of experience from
the professional music scene, combining specialized
knowledge of electric guitarists and SPL‘s
established international reputation in the research
and development of analog studio electronics. This
mutual effort of these two firms has been the basis
for new ideas such as the unique Transducer concept,
which has the potential to revolutionize the working
life of both the electric guitarist and the recording
studio engineer.
