Description
The Synergy DRECT Preamp Module brings the aggressive voice of one of the most influential high-gain amp circuits ever made into the Synergy ecosystem. Built for players chasing everything from tight hard rock crunch to modern metal saturation, the DRECT captures the low-mid punch, articulation, and searing gain that helped define the sound of bands like Metallica, Korn, Linkin Park, Soundgarden, and countless others. Keep in mind that this is a Synergy preamp module and requires a compatible Synergy amplifier or preamp dock for operation.
Loaded with two 12AX7 preamp tubes, the DRECT features two fully independent channels, each equipped with Gain, Volume, 3-Band EQ, Presence, and its own Orange/Red voicing switch. This unique setup allows you to configure either channel for classic crunch or high-gain lead tones, offering more flexibility than the original amplifier that inspired it. A three-position Cathode Select switch lets you fine-tune input gain structure, bass response, and feel, while the Dual/Single mode switch ensures compatibility with older Egnater and Randall modular systems.
Whether you're building a versatile live rig, a studio setup with multiple amp flavors, or simply looking for authentic rectified tones without hauling multiple heads, the DRECT delivers plenty of flexibility in a compact format. We've found this module to be a great fit for players who want everything from punchy rhythm sounds to saturated lead tones while keeping the convenience of the Synergy platform.
