Mother Audio KAMAYA

Introducing Kamaya by Mother Audio, a Class A circuit microphone preamp that draws inspiration from vintage British classic console preamps. The name "Kamaya," meaning "precious one" in Hawaiian, reflects the unique and exceptional character this preamp brings to your audio experience.

Unlocking up to 62 dB of gain for your microphones, Kamaya goes beyond amplification. It breathes life into your sound, adding a distinctive dimension that sets it apart from other preamps in the market.

? Custom Transformers for Sonic Brilliance Embedded within Kamaya are custom, in-house handmade transformers, a product of meticulous research, experimentation, and testing. The input transformer, inspired by the legendary Marinar 10468 (aptly named 10568), boasts a higher ratio tailored to our preferences. This transformer shapes the sound right from the input, making Kamaya vibrant and unique.

?️ Versatile Gain Control One standout feature of Kamaya is its three gain controls. The first adjusts attenuation after the input transformer, the second manages gain through negative feedback, and the third allows output attenuation. This preamp is a gain control beast, enabling you to sculpt your sound from lush and smooth to aggressive and tube-like saturated. The possibilities are endless with these precision knobs.

? Exceptional Sound Across Instruments After rigorous testing in some of the best EU studios, Kamaya proved to shine, especially on drums, with a notable impact on kick drums. Surprisingly, for a coloration-type preamp, it revealed an exceptional affinity for piano sound. The natural harmonics of the piano seemed to harmonize with Kamaya's unique song. Describing Kamaya's sound is a challenge—it's simultaneously expansive and open, finely saturated, and propelled forward in the lower mids.

?️ Fine-Tune Your Audio Experience By maximizing the Negative Feedback, Kamaya transforms into an aggressive and saturated force. Simultaneously, a slight roll-off of high frequencies occurs, enhancing overall smoothness and creating a more pleasant sound. Kamaya offers a versatile palette for audio enthusiasts, allowing you to sculpt your sound with precision and creativity.

Elevate your audio journey with Kamaya—where craftsmanship meets sonic excellence.
