Following the 500-series tube compressor, Crane Song’s Syren is a single-slot mono 500-series tube mic preamplifier.
It is based on a dual-triode circuit with a 12AX7 valve, and allows control the interaction between the tube stages as well as negative feedback. The unit can also be pushed into overdrive by driving the dual-gain-stage circuit.
The Syren features 24dB/octave 90Hz low-cut filter, +48V phantom power, polarity reversal switches and a -15dB/-25dB pad on a three-way toggle switch for use when working with loud signals. Finally a Hi-Z switch engages the instrument input.
