Authentic Sunset Sound Preamp Circuit
The Wolff Audio Quad Tutti is built around the original Tutti Camarata microphone preamp design, preserving the sonic character that made the Sunset Sound Studio 1 console famous.

Custom Cinemag Transformers for Classic Analog Tone
Each of the four preamp channels features original specification Cinemag input and output transformers, designed to replicate the exact transformer characteristics used in the original Sunset Sound consoles.
These custom transformers provide:
Rich harmonic detail
Natural low frequency weight
Smooth high frequency response
Excellent transient handling
The result is a microphone preamp that delivers warmth and depth while maintaining clarity and musicality across a wide range of sources.

Its 1U rackmount format allows studios to add multiple channels of high quality analog preamplification without occupying excessive rack space.
This makes the Quad Tutti particularly well suited for modern recording rigs where space efficiency and sound quality are equally important.
