API has announced the 312 digitally controlled mic preamp module for Karno’s Sepia system, bringing the ‘legendary warmth and punch of the iconic API 312 microphone preamp’ to Karno’s digitally controlled modular audio platform.
Designed by API in collaboration with Karno exclusively for the L6 rackmount system, the 312 Sepia module delivers the analogue character of the original 312.
‘The API 312 is one of the most respected mic preamps in recording history,’ says Karno founder, Adam Pierce. ‘Bringing it to Sepia means creators can now work with that vintage tone and dynamic depth - with all the modern control and recallability our platform offers.’
Key Features:
- Based on the original API 312 circuit design.
- Designed, built and tested by API.
- Equipped with a proprietary API transformer.
- Digital control through Sepia’s modular L6 rackmount system.
