We will soon have available an interface for the B-2/C-2/RT-2/B-3/C-3/RT-3
preamps which will allow the use of digital reverbs and other guitar type
effects on these consoles.  The circuit has been tested rather extensively
and the P.C. board is almost drawn.  Tube purists will be happy as the
circuit is all tube. 

There are two ways to go with this project:

1.  A complete unit, with a power supply, which would just "plug and play".
This could be used in almost all consoles, except the BV/CV etc.

2.  A version without power supply which would involve considerable wiring
in the pre-amp, but would be much cheaper (unless you had to hire help)

I would appreciate any input on preference before we finalize the P.C. board
design.  Please email me directly with your comments.

We will submit the details to Mark Longo when the device is ready to ship.

Thanks.
