Volume Attenuator

US $122.50
The Ultimate Attenuator, manufactured by Mark Gregg of Magus Innovations LLC, is an electronic device used for controlling the volume of an amplifier in a guitar. The device is directly mounted on the amplifier's input jacks to achieve the best and most transparent sound. This attenuator functions similarly with other attenuators such as the fiber attenuator, Weber attenuator, and digital attenuator. The Ultimate Attenuator lessens the amplitude or power of a signal in a manner that the waveform is not distorted.
According to its basic schematic, this attenuator has a fixed resistor that is in series with the signal and switchable variable resistance to ground. The attenuator provides signal load in an easy way for the amplifier's output transformer circuit. This loaded signal will serve as an input to an active-powered amplification circuit. The powered signal is then transferred by the attenuator to the speaker.
The following are some of the features of the electronic device: 100 watt maximum output, non-stepped continuous volume controller, bedroom switch, true bypass switching, dual speaker output jacks, plexi switch,100 volts tap fixed alternating current (AC) output, quiet cooling fan, variable line level output, and an all-steel construction. The 100 volts fixed AC tap protects the amplifier's components and tubes. Meanwhile, the bedroom switch is utilized in settings where low volume is required. The plexi switch is designed to modify top end response. One benefit of this kind of attenuator is that it can be switched from 120 volts to 240 volts, meaning it can be utilized anywhere in the world.
Based on several product reviews, this attenuator is safe and reliable. Because it uses a load resistor with 30 ohm, the Ultimate Attenuator can receive signal loads of 4, 8, 16 ohms from the guitar's amplifier. The company even offers a 2 ohm version of the product. The attenuator's built-in low impedance power amplifier helps to achieve strong and high frequency response. The product also delivers low volume sound with least impact. There will be no changes in resistance even if the user turns the device down. This attenuator is even compatible with older and non-master volume versions of Marshall Amplifiers. The attenuator is also compatible with Mullard power tubes. However, one negative aspect of the product is its use of the 30 ohm load. According to critics, using a 30 ohm load will reduce the power regardless of the amplifier being used. Some users even suggest enhancing the product's features such as the addition of switch to improve the bass or treble frequencies. Furthermore, many users find the attenuator very expensive. This is because there are other good devices found in the market sold for lower prices.
The latest version of the Ultimate Attenuator is the Nude 24 position model. This nude unbalanced attenuator model is more transparent and cheaper because it has no chassis. However, one downside of this model is that it will not properly fit on any component having an input jack closer together than.75 inch center to center.

Sm Pro Audio Nano Patch + Passive Volume Attenuator $59.99 The super-compact SM Pro Audio Nano Patch + desktop-sized passive volume attenuator, enters the market as one of the smallest around. Building on the success of the original M-Patch and M-Patch 2 passive attenuators, Nano Patch + is perfect for working with stereo signals from soundcards, CD players, pre-amps, and mixers. Nano Patch + facilitates precise level adjustments to analog audio source material. Pro Audio features on the Nano Patch + include balanced combo XLR/TRS input jacks and TRS outputs, mute switch, and a good sized rotary volume encoder. Nano Patch + is simply one of the most affordable improvements you can make to your studio.The Nano Patch + really comes into its own when connected between your computer audio interface/soundcard master outputs and a pair of active (powered) monitor speakers. One of the benefits of passive volume attenuation is that you no longer have to control volumes with your software's master volume fader. Reducing levels from your software only reduces the audio bit depth. It is better to keep your software masters at unity and attenuate the audio to your active monitors with a passive controller like the Nano Patch +. This way you can maintain maximum audio resolution and reduce the amplitude of your monitoring volume with the confidence that the sonic integrity of your audio is not compromised.No active circuitry, buffers, transistors, batteries, or power supply of any kind can interfere with the main passive output of the Nano Patch +. It simply delivers attenuated signal. Pure. Simple. Transparent.The SM Pro Audio attenuator's rotary control (the same pot as used in our M-Patch 2) allows precise level adjustments within 1dB from 0 to -40dB. In addition, the Nano Patch + features completely balanced operation with its combo XLR/TRS input jacks, and TRS outputs.A simple problem solver, use the Nano Patch + anywhere you need to trim gain; ie, reduce the volume of analog audio signals. For example, you could use a Nano Patch + to trim the output of a microphone preamp. With its high-quality potentiometer, the SM Pro Nano Patch + attenuator passes signal more accurately, and sounds better than most built-in volume controls. The possibilities are endless.Super compact 2-channel analog passive volume controlMute buttonCompletely transparent operationNo power required2 x combo inputs, 2 x TRS outputsMetal housingRotary volume attenuation control |

Rivera Rockcrusher Power Attenuator Purple 8/16 Ohm $499 The RockCrusher is invaluable and unbeatably versatile because you can place it between your amp and speaker cab as a power attenuator, or use it in place of your speaker cabinet as a load box while sending its balanced XLR or unbalanced 1/4" line out to another amp as a slave, or even send its output to a mixer for recording or live performance!Taking a preamp output or turning down your volume doesn't give you all of your amp's tone, because getting your favorite tube amp to perform and sound like it does when it is turned up means that you need the power-amp section to add that rich overdrive character. Unfortunately, there are not enough venues that allow for high levels that come from an amp running at full tone and power through speakers.Rivera designed and built the RockCrusher to maintain your tone. Built into the RockCrusher is a reactive load network for proper speaker-amplifier interaction. Rather than a purely resistive load like many other power attenuators, the Rock Crusher ensures that the amplifier and speaker see each other in a proper relationship of impedance and inductive/capacitive reactance. This translates to a superior tone, regardless of level. To enhance tonal balance, warmth, and shimmer, there are Edge and Warm switches that put you in total control of the final output.In addition to providing superior tone, impedance matching is critical for your tube amp's health and longevity. Rivera gave the RockCrusher an 8/16-ohm selector switch so you can use either value to accurately match your cabinets and amplifiers.Additional features that ensure the Rock Crusher is easy to use both onstage and in the studio include a front-panel bypass switch that lets you use the amp with a speaker cabinet when full output level is desired.When low speaker volume is desired, there is a Studio position of the Attenuator Level Selector that enables the Studio Level control to adjust from low to quiet outputperfect for home, project, and studio recording.Balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4" phone jacks with a convenient front-panel level control allow interfacing with practically any audio equipment. Two speaker jacks allow easy connection with up to two speaker enclosures.Bullet-proof construction, a standard feature of Rivera equipment, is also engineered into the RockCrusher: Within the 16-gauge welded steel chassis of the RockCrusher are heavy-duty and rugged industrial-grade components designed to give you years of reliable, cool-running service. In addition, both sides of the RockCrusher chassis facilitate mounting rack ears or other brackets for professional road case installation.Superior natural tone balance at any levelSelectable 8- and 16-ohm capabilityReactive internal network for true amplifier/load interactionImmense thermal capacity ensures cool running and long lifeTight impedance tolerancesXLR and unbalanced line outputs with level controlLow- and high-frequency equalization selectionLoad box and attenuator function up to 120W R |

Attenuator (Genetics) $71.7 The attenuator plays an important regulatory role in prokaryotic cells because of the absence of the nucleus in prokaryotic organisms. The attenuator refers to a specific regulatory sequence that, when transcribed into RNA, forms hairpin structures to stop translation when certain conditions are not met.Example: the trp operonAn example is the trp gene in bacteria. When there is a high level of tryptophan in the region, the bacterium may not want to synthesize more because it wants to save energy. When the RNA polymerase binds and transcribes the trp gene, the ribosome will start translating. The attenuator sequence, which is located between the mRNA leader sequence and trp operon gene sequence, contains four domains, where domain 3 can pair with domain 2 or domain 4.The attenuator sequence at domain 1 contains instruction for peptide synthesis that requires tryptophans. A high level of tryptophan will permit ribosomes to translate the attenuator sequence domains 1 and 2, allowing domains 3 and 4 to form a hairpin structure, which results in termination of transcription of the trp operon.
