Capture Every Detail, Every Time The Drawmer 1979 is a modern take on the classic channel strip, combining pristine clarity, tone shaping, and vintage compression in a single 1U unit. It delivers the transparency of an ultra-clean pre-amplifier, the natural control of Lift, the precision of a three-band parametric equaliser, and the warmth of a soft-knee FET compressor - all designed to bring true analogue musicality to your recordings. With switchable EQ and compressor order in the signal path, plus independent bypass for each section, the 1979 offers complete flexibility for shaping tone and dynamics. Pristine & Versatile Pre-Amplifier The 1979's pre-amplifier offers mic, line, and instrument DI inputs with up to 66dB of stepped gain, allowing you to capture ultra-clean, transparent recordings, enhance dull sources, or refine your instrument tone. Switched impedance matching helps every microphone perform at its best - from high-end condensers to ribbons and older dynamics - revealing each mic's perfect sweet spot. Lift - Bring Quiet Details to Life Lift - first introduced on the 1972 - is a dynamic gain module that boosts quieter signals below 0dB while leaving louder passages untouched, naturally reducing dynamic range without compression artefacts. It adjusts gain in real time for a smooth, musical response - a genuine 'set and forget' solution. Ideal for vocals, finger-picked guitars, piano, or ambient recordings, Lift enhances subtle detail and balance withou
