BigAmp is a small sized high-quality FET instrument preamp which performs equally well on stage as it does in a studio environment. It has a 1/4'' female jack input which accepts signals ranging from the pickup of an electric guitar to the line level output of a synthesizer.

BigAmp's low noise class A amplifier provides 3 dB of high-end amplification and converts the instrument output signal from unbalanced to balanced. An extra benefit might be BigAmps small size, making it super portable.

Operation: stick the BigAmp on an XLR cable, plug in your electric guitar, bass (or any other instrument with a jack output) and switch on phantom power. BigAmp goes directly into a balanced input of a preamp or interface. To achieve the best sonic result, it is advised to use a short TS/Jack cable between BigAmp and the instrument.

Recommended application: the BigAmp is an ideal companion for DAW recording. By recording a clean signal directly to disk you get the advantage of being able to shape the sound of your recorded track with your favorite plugin's during mixdown.

Circuit topology: BigAmp utilizes a low noise FET amplifier circuit, followed by a low impedance, balanced output buffer which reveals every detail and offers high-end sound quality.
