Dear fellow GroupDIY members,

I'm excited to share some fantastic news with you all! Our latest creation at Gyraf Audio, the G25 "VocalShape," has been nominated for a TEC Award in the "Microphone Preamplifiers" category. This nomination is a dream come true for me, and I would greatly appreciate your support.

About the G25 "VocalShape"

The G25 is a carefully curated all-in-one recording channel, specifically optimized for capturing vocal performances. It combines the best features from several of our previous designs:

- Tube-based mic preamp (inspired by G9)
- Linear tilt equalizer (from G23)
- Vari-mu compressor (based on G22)
- Frequency-selective clipper (derived from G21)

Product link: https://www.gyraf.dk/g25-vocalshape-recording-channel/

While it's designed primarily for vocals, we also included a front panel instrument jack because the preamp sounds incredible with bass guitar and certain synths.

How to Vote

Voting opens today, December 12th, and here’s how you can participate:

1. **Register to vote at** https://voting.broadjam.com/vote/tec_industry.php
2. Navigate to the "Microphone Preamplifiers" category.
3. Find the Gyraf G25 "VocalShape" and cast your vote.
4. Remember to press "Submit" at the bottom of each category page you vote on to ensure your selections are counted!
5. Finally, when finished, make sure to click the "View Summary/Record Vote" link at the top or bottom of the page on the left. **Please note:** Your vote is NOT recorded unless you click this link.

The entire voting process should take about 4-5 minutes, depending on your interest in other categories. And even though they ask for your email address to register, I have not experienced any attempts of spamming from there, so I believe this to be safe.

A Personal Note

Winning a TEC Award has been a long-held dream of mine since the 1980s, and this is my second nomination (the first was for the G23-S in 2020). Your support would mean so much to me and everyone at Gyraf Audio (all of who are also me).

**Disclaimer:** In the interest of transparency, I want to acknowledge that as the designer and part of Gyraf Audio, I do have commercial interests in winning this award. However, I truly believe in the quality and innovation of the G25, and I'm proud of what we've created for our engineers and customers.

Thank you for considering this request. Your vote, if you choose to give it, is deeply appreciated!

Best regards,
Jakob Erland

Voted. I’m sorry Tokyo Dawn Labs -Simulathe wasn’t nominated. What they did is quite unique and very very difficult. They really deserve an award for that.
