Hello everyone,
I was looking to add some transformer tone to my recording chain, but I don't want to go in and modify my mic pre to get it. I would just want to take the line output from my pre, go into a box with the transformers in it, and then the output of the box to my AD/DA. I was going to put 3 trannies wired to a 4 way switch so I could switch between different transformers for different colours. What are your thoughts on this idea? Would it be a simple matter of breadboarding 3 trannies, a switch, and 2 XLR jacks? Maybe adding DC power via a wall wart? Would I be able to get that transformer sound in this way?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
