Continuing in the tradition of creating useful tools for the pro audio engineer, Little Labs introduces the Red Eye Recording Tool. The Red Eye is a passive re-amp box/direct box with expansion capabilities. The passive direct box in the Red Eye features phase reverse and earth lift. At the push of a button the Red Eye converts from a direct box into a re-amp box with its own input and output connectors. The re-amp in the Red Eye features earth lift, phase reverse, and level control.
Daisy-chaining multiple rack-mountable Red Eyes (4 units fit a 1U space), with the supplied expansion in and out rear jacks and front panel expansion button, opens up the further creative potential of the Red Eye. Multiple guitar level impedance outputs can be created from a single balanced line level source, allowing you to correctly interface multiple vintage effect pedals or re-amp to multiple guitar amps. When used with any active direct box, whether it be a Little Labs Multi Z DI or other brands such as Avalon, Demeter or Evil Twin, the Red Eye creates a superb quality guitar level/impedance multiple output guitar splitter with as many outputs as Red Eyes in the rack. The Red Eye also can be used as an expansion box, creating extra transformer-isolated guitar level/impedance outputs for the Little Labs PCP Instrument Distro.
The heart of the Red Eye is a Little Labs custom wound transformer. This transformer was chosen for its sonic characteristics and is made with the same core material and winding technique as the UTC transformers found in many classic pro audio devices.
The Little Labs Red Eye Recording Tool is available immediately for a suggested retail price of $250.00. The Little Labs Red Eye Recording Tool will work overtime for the creative audio engineer in every stage of production.
