Switzerland - Schertler has completed its family of "next generation" acoustic amplifiers with the release of UNICO, a compact five-channel amp that "combines performance power and versatility with excellent sound quality".

Equipped with a 1" dome tweeter and 10" woofer, and featuring an optimized 2-way bass reflex construction, UNICO offers 250W (200W + 50W) of bi-amplified power. As well as proving ideal for acoustic instrument amplification and performing well in jazz ensembles, UNICO's 10" woofer also makes it a good crossover amp for electric guitars, says the company.

UNICO includes a balanced microphone (XLR) input, an unbalanced mic/instrument input and an input offering both balanced microphone and unbalanced mic/instrument options. Both instrument inputs feature a Bootstrap technology that enables the input to automatically adapt to any impedance.

The three main microphone/instrument input channels include a gain control for input sensitivity regulation and three-band EQ, with parametric mids on input channels 1 and 3 and a switchable resonance (notch) filter (240Hz/150Hz) on channel 2. Phantom power is supplied for condenser and electrostatic microphones. Each of these channels also features an overload LED. Channel 1 is additionally equipped with a phase reverse switch to prevent feedback, or unwanted effects between the various channels.
