Das Broughton Audio Sentinel ist ein eigenständig entwickeltes MOSFET-Overdrive- und Verzerrungspedal, das dank eines parallelen Clean-Blend-Pfads auch als vielseitiger Vorverstärker dient. Untergebracht in einem erweiterten Metallgehäuse, verfügt es über ein Bedienfeld mit acht Reglern für Gain, Master, Blend, Low Clip, Bass, Middle, Middle Frequency und Treble zur detaillierten Klangformung. Es ist mit einer True-Bypass-Schaltung ausgestattet, um die Signaltransparenz zu wahren, und kann für mehr Headroom in einem Gleichspannungsbereich von 9 bis 24 Volt betrieben werden. Die Schaltung liefert eine reichhaltige harmonische Sättigung mit aktiven EQ-Funktionen, die sich sowohl für Live-Pedalboards als auch für Studio-Direktanwendungen eignen.

The Broughton Audio Sentinel is an original design MOSFET overdrive and distortion pedal that doubles as a versatile preamp featuring a parallel clean blend path. Housed in an extended metal enclosure, it features an eight-knob control layout consisting of gain, master, blend, low clip, bass, middle, middle frequency, and treble controls for deep frequency shaping. It incorporates true bypass switching to maintain signal transparency and can operate across a 9 to 24-volt DC power range for increased headroom. The circuit is designed to deliver rich harmonic saturation with active EQ capabilities suitable for both live pedalboards and studio direct applications.

Der parametrische Equalizer bietet drei Equalizer-Bänder mit unabhängiger Steuerung von Frequenz, Bandbreite und Pegel für jedes Band.

Jedes Band hat bis zu 15 dB Verstärkung oder Absenkung. Die Bandbreite reicht von 0,25 bis 2,5 Oktaven.
Tief - 40 bis 400 Hz
Mittel - 200 bis 2.000 Hz
Hoch - 1.000 bis 10.000 Hz

The Parametric Equalizer offers three bands of equalization with independent control of frequency, bandwidth, and level for each band.

Each band has up to 15 dB of boost or cut. The bandwidth ranges from 0.25 to 2.5 octaves. 
Low - 40 to 400 Hz
Mid - 200 to 2,000 Hz
High - 1,000 to 10,000 Hz

The Silver Deluxe is a JFET boost with a Fender tone stack EQ. The JFET topology adds some character to your signal, while the passive EQ delivers the familiar response found on many classic tube amps.

The EQ is an exact recreation of the Fender tone stack with Mids. It is also the same as the Alembic F2B.

The Silver Deluxe is designed to produce mild JFET overdrive when pushed. This is achievable with instrument level signals, and powering the pedal with a 9V supply. For a clean output, it is recommended to use a higher supply voltage.

The VCA chip used in the Apex has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The Apex is no longer in production. For more information on archived pedals, click on the Archive link at the top of this page.

The Apex is a studio quality compressor with excellent control, large headroom, and clean accurate compression. It uses a THAT voltage controlled amplifier (VCA) for the highest fidelity in a small and functional format.

The compression ratio ranges from subtle to total limiting. The signal threshold can be set for line level signals or all the way down to the low output instruments. Up to 20 dB of gain allows for making up any volume lost due to compression, or simply boosting your signal above unity.

The Apex also has a variable high pass filter placed in the side chain. This feature is great for bass guitars when you don't want the low end to trigger the compression as much as the mids and highs, making the compression naturally follow your playing style. The high pass filter will not affect your audio signal, so don't worry about any loss of low end!

The wide ranging compression meter gives you an accurate visual indication of how much compression is actually happening.
