Eplex7 have released the Old vintage transformer T42N, an emulation of an old vintage isolation transformer from the 60s available at the intro price of €15.90, increasing to €28.00 after the promotion.
The T42N can add anything from gentle vintage color, harmonic distortion and saturation to heavy old school saturation, bass saturation / distortion, crunchy sound and natural but intensive peaks limiting.
A transformer is a passive electrical device that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another. Simply put transformer are two windings of coils wrapped around one magnetic core – not physically connected together – when you input electric signal to first coil it transform electric signal to electromagnetic field / electromagnetic signal.
This electromagnetic signal is “absorbed” by secondary winding (second coil) and it is again “transformed” to electric signal. Beauty of physics. So audio signal “goes thru air” not wires, cables – it is separated! Wires are not connected – primary coil do not touch secondary coil – no electrons are going from one winding to another!
Features include:
- Realistic coil isolating transformer emulation algorithm (precisely designed in our Analog / Digital labs – see video. Based on our 17+ years experiences with DSP coding and electro-technical education)
- Input trim 0.7-1.3x
- Transformer input drive (emulates preamp driving coil transformer) more drive more saturation and natural limiting
- Output trim 1-2x
- Hard Bypass
