Created in direct partnership between Sound Techniques and Warm Audio, Jude accurately delivers the exact microphone preamp circuit designed by Geoff Frost from those historic London consoles. With original dual-discrete 3035 Class-A amplification, Geoff Frost's proprietary Z-Match impedance circuit, custom-spec CineMag USA transformers, and meticulously hand-wired construction, Jude has the unmistakable depth, punch, and musicality heard on classic recordings by David Bowie, Elton John, Queen, and several Beatles recordings including “Hey Jude”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual-Discrete, Z-Match Magic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilt to original Sound Techniques specifications, every Jude channel preserves the complete signal path and tonal flexibility that made the \"A-Range\" consoles legendary among engineers and producers. The exclusive 9-position Z-Match control allows each channel to optimize the relationship between microphone and preamp, offering nine distinct tonal interactions that shape gain, transient response, frequency balance, and harmonic character with virtually any microphone. Combined with premium Wima and Nichicon audio-grade capacitors, carbon resistors, custom CineMag USA transformers, and Warm Audio's meticulous hand-tested construction, Jude delivers the authentic British console sound once reserved for a handful of the world's most influential recording studios.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yI63DFfcoVM\" title=\"Introducing The Warm Audio x Sound Techniques Jude Preamps\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IGJ8vOioWO8\" title=\"Jude Preamp Deep Dive With Sound Techniques Owner Danny White\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/W0fk80iV1Ek\" title=\"Warm Audio x Sound Techniques Jude Preamp Demo | Hear It On Vocals, Guitar, Strings, Trumpet, Drums\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1475\/9390\/files\/ST-Vibe-Desktop.webp?v=1793287912\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the vintage Sound Techniques console preamps, Jude includes all the features that deliver the authentic 60’s London console experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1475\/9390\/files\/KF-1_1.webp?v=1793289175\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExclusive to Sound Techniques, the 9-position Z-Match tone control optimizes the interaction between microphone and preamp.
