Shadow Hills Mono GAMA
The Shadow Hills Industries Mono GAMA is a high-end single-channel microphone preamplifier designed for the API 500 Series format, embodying the renowned quality and versatility of the Golden Age Microphone Amp. At the heart of the Mono GAMA is a custom discrete op-amp, engineered to deliver exceptional clarity, punchiness, and depth across the entire frequency range. This no-compromise design ensures your recordings maintain their dynamic integrity without any hint of veiling or compression. Whether you’re recording vocals or instruments, the Mono GAMA excels at bringing out the full character of your sound with remarkable fidelity.
One of the standout features of the Mono GAMA is its unique switchable output transformers, offering three distinct tonal options with the turn of a dial. These options — Discrete, Nickel, and Steel — allow you to tailor the sound to perfectly match your recording needs. The Discrete setting offers a pure, transformerless path, ideal for achieving transparency. Nickel delivers a subtle boost in the high frequencies for added presence, while Steel provides a low-end emphasis, giving your tracks a solid foundation. The Mono GAMA’s versatility is further enhanced by its top-tier build quality, featuring a 24-position Swiss-made attenuator for precise gain control, custom knobs, and engraved front panels. Whether in a professional studio or a high-end home setup, the Mono GAMA promises to be an invaluable tool in capturing audio with unmatched warmth and precision.
