With a simple flick of a switch,
the Amulet System's new low-cut filter
removes any extreme low end that might strain smaller speaker systems without
compromising the complete, full-range sound of your guitar, no matter how low you
tune.
In response to user requests, we have recently added an exciting and useful update to
the Amulet electronics package. A user-selectable lowcut filter has now been added to
limit the extreme lower end response of the system for certain live performance and
recording applications.
The powerful low-end response of the Acoustic Lens pickups adds
impact and sensitivity to larger speaker systems, providing the listener with
a realistic sense of "physical presence" of sound; with the proper system,
you can practically "feel" the fingers contacting the strings! On smaller
speaker and amplifier systems however, this muscular ability may tend to
actually overpower the components involved. This can be especially
apparent when playing very percussively around the bridge of the
instrument, where the pickups are mounted. Since the bass side Acoustic Lens pickup
is mounted in that area, it's kind of like tapping on a microphone; tapping
lightly sounds good, tapping too hard will start to air-condition the
audience from the flapping woofers in your speaker cabinets! But the new Amulet
design changes all that with a simple flick of a switch...
The Amulet System's new low-cut filter has been carefully engineered to
steeply remove any extreme low end
excursions that might strain smaller speaker systems, but leaves the musical low end
response of the instrument intact, even on those guitars that have been
tuned far below normal pitch - the sound will still be the complete, full-range
sound of your instrument. And the extremely low-noise design insures that
the low-cut filter's operation is totally transparent to the user.
