User manual CHANDLER LIMITED LTD1

[. . . ] LTD-1 Thank you for your purchase of the Chandler Limited LTD-1 Mic Amplifier and equalizer. Your LTD is handmade and assembled with pride in the USA. [. . . ] The mic and line inputs have their own input on the rear panel as well as a separate input transformer. Each rear input has its own section of control on the input switch. The microphone section gives 20 to 80db of boost in 5db steps, while the line gives +10 to -20db of adjustment. Output- Functioning as a console fader this control is placed after the gain stage and before the output stage. This allows for trimming of the input signal between the 5db steps of the input switch, as well as allowing the user to run the input very hot (for extra coloration) without distorting the recorder. For most applications this will be left in the full position. High Eq- This is a high end shelving characteristic with five selections. 16k, 12k, 6k8, 4k7, 3k3 (standard 1073s had only 12k). A high shelving type equalizer adjusts the selected frequency and all others above it. The pot gives up to 18db of boost or cut of the selected frequency. Mid Eq- This is a mid frequency peaking characteristic with ten selections. 270hz, 390hz, 560hz, 820hz, 1k2, 1k8, 2k7, 3k9, 5k6, 8k2. (old 1073s had 360hz, 700hz, 1k6, 3k2, 4k8, 7k2).
