ART TPS II – 2‑Channel Tube Microphone Preamp
Tube Warmth • Variable Voicing • Dual‑Channel Flexibility
The ART TPS II is a versatile 2‑channel tube microphone and instrument preamp designed to bring warmth, character, and professional‑grade tone shaping to any studio setup. Whether you're tracking vocals, guitars, bass, keys, or running line‑level sources through tubes for added color, the TPS II delivers clean gain, musical saturation, and flexible voicing options that punch far above its price point.
Tube Warmth with ART’s Variable Valve Voicing (V3)
At the heart of the TPS II is ART’s V3 (Variable Valve Voicing) system — a set of carefully tuned, application‑specific presets that shape the tube’s response. With the turn of a knob, you can move from clean and transparent to warm, thick, and harmonically rich.
Perfect for:
-
Vocals
-
Acoustic instruments
-
Electric guitar/bass DI
-
Synths and drum machines
-
Re‑amping or warming up digital sources
It’s an easy way to dial in the right character for any session.
Dual‑Channel Flexibility for Any Studio Workflow
With two independent tube preamps, the TPS II is ideal for stereo recording, dual‑mic setups, or running multiple instruments at once. Each channel includes:
-
Gain control
-
V3 voicing selector
-
Input impedance control
-
LED metering
-
Phantom power
-
Phase reverse
It’s a powerful front‑end for any interface or mixer.
Professional Connectivity & Clean, Quiet Operation
The TPS II offers XLR and 1/4" inputs, balanced outputs, and a high‑headroom design that keeps noise low even at higher gain settings. It’s equally at home in home studios, podcast setups, live rigs, and mobile recording environments.
