ROY - Schertler Group’s new top-of-the-range combo amplifier for acoustic instruments. This 400W, 7-channel amp provides a powerful yet comparatively lightweight system that is perfect for both stage and studio. Equipped with a 1” horn, two 8” subwoofers and featuring the same hi-end Class A preamp found in other Schertler amplifiers, ROY delivers the rich, high-quality sound that has become synonymous with this product family, while providing the user with even greater flexibility. ROY has 4 input channels with various mic / instrument combinations, un i n s e r t (as on a professional mixer), 3-band EQ and phantom power; an additional unbalanced instrument input channel; a stereo input channel for playback devices and an FX return / additional input channel. ROY’s Master section includes both a digital reverb with decay and a new digital Multi-Effect (on a separate buss). This intuitive control surface provides a comprehensive mixing facility for easy set-up and on-stage adjustments during performances. Highly effective as a stand-alone portable amplification system for soloists or small groups, ROY also offers a range of output options for connecting to external systems: Add a separate subwoofer to enhance the low frequency ranges of certain instruments, or to create a compact 3-way active PA system. Connect to a mixing console for larger-scale applications. The addition of a headphone preamp provides a handy monitoring facility for both live performance and recording applications, making ROY a powerful and practical “all rounder”.
