WesAudio Phoebe 500 Series Analog Preamp with Digital Recall

WesAudio Phoebe 500 Series Analog Preamp with Digital Recall

The WesAudio _Phoebe is a 100% analog, Class A microphone, line, and instrument preamplifier inspired by classic British dual-amp topology, offering a generous +28dBu of headroom and microphone gain up to 75dB for taming even the quietest ribbon and dynamic mics. Carnhill input and output transformers anchor its vintage-inspired sound, while switchable input impedance (1200/300 ohms) lets you optimize the preamp's interaction with different microphones for subtle tonal shifts.

The front-panel XLR/TS combo socket accepts microphone, line, or Hi-Z instrument signals, and _Phoebe lets you keep two sources connected at once — recallable switching between the rear XLR and front-panel input is handled directly from the DAW plugin. A 15dB output PAD provides passive attenuation in precise 1dB steps after the output transformer, and front-panel signal metering with clip detection keeps levels in check, with phantom power and phase invert rounding out the control set.

As an NG500-series unit, _Phoebe fits a standard 500-series rack via front-panel USB or integrates into WesAudio's _Titan chassis for full system recall. Every analog parameter is fully manageable and automatable through the WesAudio GCon DAW plugin, giving engineers the warm, transformer-coupled sound of a classic dual-amp preamp with the convenience of total digital recall.

WesAudio is a Polish audio manufacturer based in Szczecin, founded in 2010, known for building professional analog outboard gear that bridges classic tube and transformer-based circuit design with modern digital convenience. Their flagship ng500 series — including modules like _Rhea, _Calypso, _Dione, and _Mimas — pairs fully analog signal paths with total recall, DAW plugin control (VST/AU/AAX), and automation, all accessible via USB or through their _Titan rack chassis for unified control of an entire 500-series setup. The company's focus is on giving engineers genuine vintage-style analog tone without sacrificing the recall and automation workflows expected in modern digital studios.
