Langevin AM16 Hardware
Capitol Records' secret weapon
The LAM16 faithfully recreates the circuit topology of the legendary Langevin AM16. The AM16 is a Class A, transformer-balanced, discrete transistor preamp modeled after vintage Neve designs. This traditional architecture delivers the tube-like airiness, musical harmonic richness, and analog richness that defined countless hits of the 1960s and '70s. Designed by John Hall and widely used by Capitol Records and major studios around the world, the AM16 was the secret weapon behind the open, airy sound of legendary recordings.
Class A Transformer-Balanced Design: The AM16's transformer-balanced inputs and outputs, combined with its Class A discrete circuit topology, create the iconic studio sound that made vintage recordings sound so incredible. This design philosophy delivers exceptional clarity, open high-frequency response, and musical saturation characteristics. Experience the tube-like airiness, smooth harmonic emphasis, and analog cohesion that engineers have trusted for decades in your DAW, along with the power of 96kHz neural modeling technology.
Open, Airy, and Musical
• Open and Airy: Well-balanced across the frequency spectrum, with excellent top-end clarity and tube-like "air" characteristics.
• Musical Saturation: Push for powerful harmonic richness, perfect for adding grit and character to drums, especially kicks and snares.
• Smooth Transients: Fast, punchy response that enhances percussive detail while maintaining musicality.
• Vintage Studio Vibe: A warm, balanced sound heard on countless classic recordings, including those from Capitol Records.
Neural Network Capture
Intelligent Automatic Oversampling
96kHz Neural Model Trained on Legendary Analog Gear
LAM16 is a neural snapshot of the Langevin AM16 preamp, trained at 96kHz, recreating every nuance of intermodulation distortion, frequency-dependent saturation, and the dynamic response of analog music. LAM16
The LAM16's automatic oversampling system intelligently kicks in when your session drops below 96kHz, ensuring the model always operates at the sample rate it was trained on, minimizing aliasing and ensuring maximum reliability.
Tone Empire is also running a Black Friday sale.
Until November 18th.
