The BigAmp Piezo is a low-noise instrument preamp, suitable for piezo pickups in the studio and on the "stage".It is designed to process the signal from high-ohm piezo pickups of musical instruments. These pickups have an impedance in the order of several megaohms (MOhm), much higher than the impedance of the input of a mixing console. This limits the signal from the pickup and degrades the transient response. In addition, the high impedance combined with the capacitance of the input cable creates a frequency limitation that makes the resulting sound subjectively uninteresting. The BigAmp Piezo eliminates these shortcomings with a high input impedance of 7.5 MOhm. Therefore, the complete signal from the transducer can be transmitted without any loss. The signal is amplified by only 3 dB and is thus left with the maximum possible dynamics. The BigAmp Piezo plugs in just behind the transducer, eliminating cable capacitance.
