★Passive monitor controller "izarai" ●Minimalist appearance, pure expression izarai is a passive monitor controller for studio use, made with high-quality parts made in Japan. The biggest advantage of passive amplifiers is that they have a simple structure and do not contain any electronic circuits. This means you can reproduce and control the sound without making any unnecessary changes to the original sound. This is an extremely important point for engineers and creators who work with sound every day and pursue even the smallest nuances. We focused on this point and achieved a higher level of fidelity to the original sound by using high-quality parts manufactured in Japan and a simple circuit design. The exterior also features a design that visualizes the sound quality characteristics, giving it a high-end look and feel. Furthermore, Izarai does not require a power source, so it will free you from the various stresses that surround you. Creates the best space for you to engage with sound. ●Made in Japan The attenuator at the core of izarai is manufactured by Tokyo Measuring Instruments, a company that has been manufacturing rotary switches for over 60 years. A 4-circuit, 23-contact switch is used. The iconic aluminum knob and push button are specially designed and machined from aluminum in Japan. It has been given a more refined texture. The high reliability of Made in Japan dramatically improves the quality of your studio. ●User-focused features We collaborated with Gregory Germen, a recording and mixing engineer active on the front lines, to develop We have pursued specifications that are based on the perspective of the field. The attenuator uses an irregular step design for practicality. C-SELECT allows OUTPUT C to always be ON regardless of the OUTPUT button. This is useful when connecting a subwoofer, etc. DIM can also be switched between -10/-20dB. Two stereo inputs, three stereo outputs, and A THRU OUT is provided which can be used when connecting a VU meter. It also includes other necessary functions such as MONO and MUTE switches. Suitable for use in a variety of locations. ●Features -Uses a 4-circuit, 23-contact rotary switch made in Japan. Passive speaker delivers faithful reproduction of the original sound.
