OVERVIEW

The Heritage Audio LANG SILVERR 47® is a premium dual-channel tube mic preamp built to resurrect one of the most influential preamp circuits of the 1960s. Inspired by the storied British-Invasion sound, each channel incorporates a NOS 6AU6 pentode input stage and a JJ E88CC output stage. Custom LANG input/output transformers give it that vintage texture, while stepped gain control in 6-dB increments (up to +52 dB) and a variable output control provide precision and flexibility.

One of the standout features is the No-Feedback (NFB) gain position – a design twist introduced by Heritage that allows for significantly enhanced harmonic distortion and saturation, pushing the unit beyond simple vintage emulation into creative territory. With front-panel mic (balanced XLR), line (TRS), and DI inputs, this preamp is not only a mic preserver but a versatile tone-shaping tool. Whether you’re after classic clean vocals, gritty guitar direct-ins, or aggressive saturation, the SILVERR 47 has the sonic character and flexibility to fit in.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

British-Invasion Sonic Signature:

Recreates the vintage preamps that defined the sound of 1960s Britain, with tube stages and transformers that capture their warmth, detail, and punch.

No-Feedback Gain Mode for Extreme Harmonics:

Switching into No Feedback mode increases distortion dramatically, allowing for bold coloration that adds grit and presence when required.

Stepped Gain Control (6 dB steps up to +52 dB):

Front-panel increments give you repeatable settings and precise gain staging, from subtle clean boost to full saturation.

Versatile I/O: Mic, Line & DI:

Balanced XLR mic inputs, TRS line inputs, and front-panel TS DI allow this preamp to excel in many roles – mic pre, instrument DI, EQ driver, or line stage.

Premium Tubes & Transformers:

NOS 6AU6 pentode input tubes and JJ E88CC outputs paired with custom LANG transformers ensure that every channel behaves richly and dynamically.
