Good Things Come In Threes
Three is a recurring number when it
comes to the awesome features of the
TRIREC. There are three preamp channels,
each with three-band EQ, Presence, Volume
and Gain controls. Channel 1 gives you
pristine cleans and a DRIVE setting for a
dynamic crunch tone. Channels 2 and 3
give you three overdrive modes: Classic for
blues and classic rock sounds, Vintage for
more gain for hard rock, and Modern for
pure, maniacal metal. Five 12AX7 valves
give the TRICEC’s preamp stage the mojo
to cover this vast tonal palette. The output
stage contains 4 x 6L6 valves (convertible
to 4 x EL34 valves—not included).
What is Varipower?
There’s nothing like the roaring
“soft-clip” sound of saturated power valves,
but these tones are normally accessible
only when an amp’s volume is cranked.
Unfortunately, this kind of volume isn’t an
option when you’re jamming away in your
apartment at 3:00 am, or if you’re gigging
in a tiny club. That’s why the TRIREC
features the Varipower rotary control,
which adjusts output power anywhere
from 1 to 100 Watts. Whether you’re
trying to record a searing solo without
waking the neighbors, or blowing the
roof o the biggest gig of your life,
the TRIREC is always ready to provide
the sound of overdriven valve fury.
