The Pathos Synapse is a new balanced preamplifier which represents Pathos' state of the art technology. Made of 2 chassis, the inferior part has the power supply and all the control logic, including the amazing fluorescent display, while the upper part contains the stages of analog signal management. This is to optimize the complex circuitry by keeping electrically noisy parts far from those used in the signal.
Signal management is then assigned to a hybrid circuit with three stages provided with a cascode differential for voltage amplification, where is applied to a double triode 6H30 and then two buffers; the first tube buffer with the second double triode 6H30 and the second with a mosfet tracker able to interface with the maximum outer world linearity.
Two volume regulators per channel manage the balanced signal. The channels are solid state and are located inside two modules with rectangular shape fixed on the main printed circuit; the setting is on 168 steps of 0,5dB. Total amplification may be fixed at 0dB, +6dB or +12dB allowing to take full advantage of the sophisticated level regulators that permit the use of centre width and have a good resolution on the setting.
The central part houses the power supply of the digital part, i.e. the microprocessor, relay, display and encoder. The fluorescent display is really a piece of art showing the useful information needed during functioning so that we can read the selected input, set attenuation and several other menu data (channels balance, input disabling, gain block of inputs, customization of inputs, gain setting, etc.).
