The T25 is a fully analog device that follows in the footsteps of m'Lab's first product, the HUMSTER, and is neither an overdrive nor an amp simulator. You can control the overdrive and volume of a high-quality tube amplifier without compromising its rich, three-dimensional sound. Recent advancements in digital modeling technology have been remarkable, allowing for accurate reproduction of the sound and recording/playback environments of various devices. However, in terms of subtle picking nuances and analog-like tracking of changes in guitar volume control, it falls short of real amplifiers. When using an amplifier without a master volume control, you may struggle with volume balance within a band ensemble. In environments where you can't fully drive the amplifier, such as home recording, the T25 functions like an extension of the amplifier, naturally creating the saturation and compression of power tubes. The internal circuitry uses components reminiscent of boutique amplifiers, such as the Jupiter Yellow Vintage Tone Condenser (a reproduction of the Astron Yellow Molded capacitor), Dale RN Resistor, and CTS450 Potentiometer. These components are assembled using point-to-point hand-wiring, which requires high technical skill. This eliminates the capacitance caused by printed circuit boards, resulting in a clear, direct sound with low noise and high responsiveness. • Controls: DRIVE, VOLUME, BRILLIANT, LOUDNESS Connector: INOUTDC9V (2.1mm center negative) Dimensions: 122 x 66 x 59 (mm) Weight: 320g (excluding battery)・Current consumption: 4.5mA Input impedance: 500kOhm Output impedance: 10kOhm • True bypass switch • Power supply: 006P/DC9V *Product specifications and appearance are subject to change without notice. ~About mt'Lab~ It's pronounced "MT's Lab." We've been making effect pedals entirely by hand since 1997. The brand name, mt'Lab, combines the builder's initials, mt, with Lab (=Laboratory) to reflect our commitment to continuously researching and developing products that meet the demands of professional use, by fusing musical and impactful sounds with the meticulous and high-quality craftsmanship unique to Japanese companies. Although the brand icon, shaped like a mountain, is sometimes misread as "Mount Love," this shape is actually based on the ASDR envelope, a parameter in analog synthesizers that represents the temporal changes in sound. ～mt'Lab→KATANASOUND→mt'Lab～ Starting with their first product, the HUMSTER, they released numerous products including the CLASSIC series, and in 2003, they changed their brand name to Katanasound and expanded into the United States. Its bold kanji designs and high quality have earned it the support of many artists, including Jon Spencer. Sales began in Japan in 2006, but Katanasound ceased operations in 2021, and the mt'Lab brand was relaunched in 2022, the 25th anniversary year.
