{"product_id":"warm-audio-jude-mp","title":"Warm Audio JUDE-MP Sound Techniques Single-Channel Console Microphone Preamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe JUDE-MP is a premium single-channel microphone preamp and DI that delivers the unmistakable character of the original Sound Techniques console in a compact desktop format. Built for professional studios, home recording, voice-over work and mobile sessions, it gives exceptional warmth, detail and dynamic response while preserving every nuance of a performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe JUDE preamps are authentic reproductions of the original Sound Techniques “A-Range” console microphone preamps that helped define the sound of legendary recordings at London studios such as De Lane Lea and Trident. Created in direct partnership between Sound Techniques and Warm Audio, JUDE delivers the exact microphone preamp circuit Geoff Frost designed for those consoles: dual-discrete 3035 Class-A amplification, Frost’s proprietary Z-Match impedance circuit, custom-spec CineMag USA transformers and hand-wired construction. It is the depth, punch and musicality heard on classic recordings by David Bowie, Elton John, Queen and several Beatles recordings, “Hey Jude” among them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery JUDE channel preserves the complete A-Range signal path. The 9-position Z-Match control sets the relationship between microphone and preamp, giving nine distinct tonal interactions that shape gain, transient response, frequency balance and harmonic character with virtually any microphone. Switch the Z-Match to its 10 kΩ position and the preamp matches modern interface outputs, so tracks and stems can be run through it for added analogue character. Wima and Nichicon audio-grade capacitors, carbon resistors and custom CineMag USA transformers complete the build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle channel, desktop format with carry handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Sound Techniques A-Range preamp circuit, dual-discrete 3035 Class-A amplification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9-position Z-Match input impedance control (60 Ω, 200 Ω, 1.5 kΩ and 10 kΩ line-level positions)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom-wound 3-impedance CineMag USA input transformer and high-purity nickel CineMag output transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain and Output controls, 48 V phantom power, polarity reverse and line-level switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-panel ¼″ instrument DI input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWima and Nichicon audio-grade capacitors and carbon resistors, hand-wired to the original layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-tested and inspected in Austin, Texas; 5-year warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInputs (per channel): XLR mic, ¼″ TS\/TRS instrument\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutputs (per channel): XLR and ¼″ TRS line level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable mic input impedance: 60 Ω | 200 Ω | 1.5 kΩ | 10 kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreamp gain: 65–76 dB (40 Ω source impedance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEIN: −128 dBu (A-weighted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-noise: −99 dBu (A-weighted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD: 0.008%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz – 25 kHz (±2 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027611230457,"sku":"JUDE-MP","price":1149.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/1_Updated_Gallery_JudeMP_main.jpg?v=1788890160","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/warm-audio-jude-mp","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
