About the Avalon Design VT-737sp

The Avalon VT-737sp is a class-A vacuum-tube channel strip — discrete tube preamp, opto-style compressor, and 4-band parametric EQ in one unit — that has tracked more lead vocals on hit records than most engineers can count. On a touring rig it gets racked specifically to live on the lead vox input chain, where its warm-with-detail character separates the singer from the band mix. The kind of piece that doesn't belong in every rack but is the right answer when it does.

Vacuum-tube preamp + opto-comp + 4-band parametric. Lead-vocal channel-strip standard.
