Each channel combines a custom-wound MANLEY IRON® input transformer with a 12AX7 dual triode vacuum tube, delivering wide dynamic range and rich harmonic detail. The dedicated front-panel Hi-Z input accepts line-level or instrument signals and routes them directly into the tube gain stage for tone shaping of electric guitars, basses and keyboards. If you use amp simulations in recording software, you can feel the difference when playing through a tube DI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;margin:30px 0 12px;padding:0 0 7px;border-bottom:2px solid #006D77;\"\u003eIntuitive workflow with professional-grade control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThe FORCE is engineered for streamlined operation in demanding sessions. Each channel provides switchable gain at 40 dB or 50 dB, phase reverse and a 120 Hz high-pass filter. The continuously variable input attenuator on the front panel works as a precision pad for optimal gain staging. Seven-segment LED metering delivers clear visual monitoring, while positive-action latching switches ensure tactile, reliable control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;margin:30px 0 12px;padding:0 0 7px;border-bottom:2px solid #006D77;\"\u003eHigh voltage, high headroom\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA regulated 300 V DC rail feeds the vacuum tubes, so the preamp handles very hot input signals without distorting or clipping. The result is a cleaner, more dynamic and more transparent sound, with +35 dBu maximum output and 31 dB of output headroom, that captures every nuance of a performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;margin:30px 0 12px;padding:0 0 7px;border-bottom:2px solid #006D77;\"\u003eMANLEY Power®\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThe custom high-voltage switch-mode supply operates at frequencies well above the audible range for a cleaner, quieter signal path. It is more efficient and lets the FORCE operate anywhere in the world, from 90 V to 254 V AC, without voltage selection. AUTOMUTE keeps the outputs muted for 30 seconds while the tubes warm up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;margin:30px 0 12px;padding:0 0 7px;border-bottom:2px solid #006D77;\"\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:20px;\"\u003e\u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 6px;\"\u003eMANLEY FORCE four-channel microphone preamplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;margin:30px 0 12px;padding:0 0 7px;border-bottom:2px solid #006D77;\"\u003eMANLEY FORCE: frequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:15px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;margin:18px 0 6px;\"\u003eWhat is the primary application for the FORCE?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eIt is a main front end for multi-channel recording such as drums, live bands and ensembles, and an excellent choice for vocals, acoustic instruments and other sources that need a clean, punchy, professional sound. Its direct inputs make it a versatile tone-shaping tool for bass and keyboards too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:15px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;margin:18px 0 6px;\"\u003eHow does the Hi-Z input differ from the mic input?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThe XLR mic input passes through the MANLEY IRON® transformer. The front-panel Hi-Z input is transformerless and sends line and instrument signals directly into the tube circuit, preserving the instrument's tone while keeping the all-tube signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:15px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;margin:18px 0 6px;\"\u003eCan I use the FORCE with ribbon microphones?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eYes.

An additional 10 dB is available via an internal jumper for 60 dB in total, and the INPUT LEVEL control acts as a variable pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:15px;font-weight:700;color:#0D1B3E;margin:18px 0 6px;\"\u003eWhere can I buy the MANLEY FORCE in India?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThe MANLEY FORCE is available from \u003cstrong\u003eShivansh Electronics, Kolkata, West Bengal, India\u003c\/strong\u003e, with delivery across India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Shivansh Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68002582331759,"sku":"MANLEY-FORCE","price":382000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/4766\/0399\/files\/MANLEY-FORCE-PREAMPS-AND-PROCESSORS-SHIVANSH-ELECTRONICS-1.webp?v=1793678393","url":"https:\/\/shivanshelectronics.in\/products\/manley-force-preamps-processors","provider":"Shivansh Electronics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
