Orange 4 Stroke 300 Overview
The Orange 4 Stroke-300 is an all-analogue class AB bass head that sounds punchy, dynamic and crystal clean. The key to the 4 Stroke's great tone is the active four-band parametric EQ that lets you sculpt your tone and remove unwanted frequencies. A proprietary footswitchable Class A compression circuit tracks seamlessly, which adds punch, fatness and focus to your sound. Other features include two parallel speaker outputs and balanced and line level outputs. If you want crystal cleans from your bass head, look no further than the Orange 4 Stroke 300.Call GAK now for product info, advice and the Best Prices - 01273 665400
- Full control over the entire sound spectrum - not just the mids. Featuring four independent frequency controls, each with up to 18dB of cut or boost, the 4 Stroke's Q curves have been engineered to achieve the perfect balance between precision and usability. The intuitive layout is typically Orange - "Do much more, with much less." With no pre-defined contour or filter switches, the ability to fine tune your sound has never been more comprehensive.
- Rather than a common hard limiter, the 4 Stroke's Class A compressor design maintains the transients of the input signal for a dynamic playing response. The carefully developed sidechain has a fattening effect on the core tone at lower compression settings, whilst increasing the amount of compression adds a springy character to the attack, great for heavy thumb work. With just a simple level control (much like many classic studio units), the compression can also be engaged or defeated remotely with the optional FS-1 footswitch.
- Trusting our ears and moving away from Class D technology altogether, the 4 Stroke is 100% analogue throughout. At the point of entry, the 4 Stroke features a new all-discrete Class A input buffer circuit. This contributes to crystal clear note definition and a highly detailed response, accurately reproducing even the most subtle nuances under your fingers. The Class AB output section (available in either 300 or 500 Watts) ensures these amps stay composed and assertive, whatever the venue. This design also means the 4 Stroke can also be used without a speaker load, perfect for direct recording in the studio.
