Studio Electronics BoomStar Modstar AMP module

The AMP module is a 2 stage Class A discrete design using 3 pairs of hand matched transistors. Envelope is usually applied to ST1/1. ST1/2 goes thru an attenuverter and can be used for envelope or modulation. ST2/1 goes to the 2nd stage, and is typically used for volume control. ST2/2 goes thru an attenuverter and is typically used for modulation. The AMP, the 5089, and the 3003 are Class A circuits. They draw more current from the +12 rail than from the -12 volt rail. If the system power supply is under-sized, hum or buzz may be heard. In that case, larger filter capacitors and/or a larger power transformer will be needed. The 4075 draws equally from both rails, and is more immune to hum. Like our filters Boomstar Modular AMPs are hand-built entirely in the U. S. of A just ask Rachael Herbison! Potentiometer Potential Four attenuation pots control the INPUT, STAGE 1/2, STAGE 2/2, and OUTPUT, delivering smooth, detailed, and complex expression.

Patch it Up Six patch points: INPUT, ST 1/1, ST 1/2, ST 2/1, ST 2/2, OUTPUT direct the deepest manipulation. All Controls & Patch Points INPUT ﾖ Adjusts the audio input. STAGE 1/2 ﾖ Adjusts stage 1/2. STAGE 2/2 ﾖ Adjusts stage 2/2. DRONE ﾖ Sustains the last note received.  DRIVE ﾖ Final output stage overdrive/saturation. OUTPUT ﾖ Adjusts the audio output. INPUT ﾖ Audio input. ST 1/1 ﾖ Stage 1/1 input. ST 1/2 ﾖ Stage 1/2 input. ST 2/1 ﾖ Stage 2/1 input. ST 2/2 ﾖ Stage 2/2 input. OUTPUT ﾖ Audio output. * From 7:00 (0) to 9:00 our Negative Resonance Saturation adds beefiness, boosting the waveform amplitude and taming waveform transients; set to 9:00 to achieve the cleanest tone possible.
