TUBE PAC
PROFESSIONAL TUBE PREAMPLIFIER/ COMPRESSOR
T
he Tube PAC from A R T is a combination of the world’s most popular tube mic/line preamplifi-
er and optical tube compressor. A R T engineers took the Tube MP and Tube Compressor
and combined them into a single convenient aircraft-quality, extruded aluminum chassis. This new
table-top design allows for easy placement in the studio or on the stage with immediate access to
all the controls, features, and metering. In addition to being a tremendous vocal and instrument
preamplifier and compressor package, this may well be the ultimate in tube direct boxes!
The mic/line preamplifier stage is that of the TEC nominated Tube MP – a time (and studio) proven
design. It provides over 70dB of gain, +48v phantom power, phase reversal, and is capable of
warming up any instrument or microphone. LED level indicators are provided to monitor the out-
put of a 12AX7a tube for harmonic content. The input level controls allows you to dial in the
desired amount of tube warmth and then independently set the output level from the compressor
circuitry. The tube compressor is a VCA-less, optical design–similar to that of the “classic” tube
compressors. Its ultra-musical sound is ideal for voice and instrument applications. Threshold,
compression/limiting ratios, adjustable release times, bypass, gain reduction metering, and out-
put gain controls are provided.
The Tube PAC is another impressive package from the world-wide leaders in tube dynamics signal-
processing gear. Pick one up and catch your own tube-buzz at your favorite A R T dealer today.

TUBE PAC
SPECIFICATIONS
“.. the Tube PAC was clearly
superior, offering a much
more open sound without
the brittleness and ‘hard-
ness’ of the console pre-
amps. When home and
project studio owners start
using the Tube PAC instead
of their low-priced console
mic pres, they’ll most likely
notice a significant
improvement.”
