Baroni - R-1970 Preamp Orange 70's

If you’re looking to recapture the charm of ’70s Orange amps in a compact format, the R-1970 is the perfect answer. Equipped with a high-voltage 12AX7 tube preamp, this pedal reproduces the natural saturation and dynamics that capture the essence of classic amps. Fully analog, it is a versatile tool suitable for both stage and recording.

Its EQ is designed to faithfully reproduce that of vintage amps. It is not just a simple gain control: it acts as a true tone sculptor, allowing you to keep a clean sound or access full saturation. You can adjust the relationship between gain and level according to your needs, whether you are amplifying directly or recording via an audio interface. Lovers of nuance will appreciate this precision in each note.

The Varicab function adds a unique dimension to this pedal. More than just a cabinet simulator, it modifies the preamp feedback to deliver rich and dynamic harmonic variations. Turn the knob to explore sounds ranging from an intimate combo to a powerful 4x12" cabinet. Ideal for adapting to different recording and live setups.

The built-in FX Loop circuit allows you to get the most out of your external effects. When the pedal goes into distortion, this serial loop ensures perfect insertion of ambient effects. This feature is particularly useful for maintaining the clarity and depth of the sound, even at high gain levels. You can therefore customize your sound chain without compromising the quality of your signal, making the Baroni R-1970 a complete and reliable tool.

Connect the pedal directly to a console, audio interface or PA system thanks to the XLR output. The Varicab's adjustable cabinet simulation is ideal for those who want to rediscover the feeling of a tube amp without having to carry around bulky equipment. The intuitive interface makes it simple to use, while leaving many possibilities for demanding guitarists.
