Vintage RFZ Preamp Racking

Posted by in equipment, KORN HARDCORE CUSTOMS, mods & repairs, News, rent studio

Those great sounding 70’s preamps from the former GDR broadcasting with discrete design and transformers were found on a local fleamarket.  Now they needed recycled wooden housings (dia boxes) powersupplies und XLR inputs/outputs. Not the most versatile preamp (no low cut,48V) but perfect for dynamic mics. Really pleased with the coloured tone and the huge amplification of 70dB!! V740 schematic:

Posted by in equipment, KORN HARDCORE CUSTOMS, mods & repairs, Studio

Replaced the internal sound eproms of the cheesy sounding machine from 1987. The new roms include 2*48 sounds of Classic drummachines like TR-707, TR-727, 909, Linndrum, DMX, RZ-1 etc. Still needs the overall pitch adjustment mod.
