The Chandler Limited TG12411 channel, formerly known as the TG Channel MKII, is a recreation of several classic circuits – combining Wade Goeke’s design of the TG2 pre amp section with an equaliser that was redesigned from a circuit used in the TG12410 Transfer Console, the mastering counterpart to the original “Beatles desks.”

The active portions of the unit use the same discrete amplifiers and transformers as in the TG1 Limiter and TG2 pre amp. The TG12411’s passive equaliser EQ is an all inductor design offering sweet high frequencies, large inductor based lows, and a very high “Q” mid cut section. Its sound is very comparable to Pultec and Lang program EQs. A simple description would be a TG Pultec with a TG pre amp thrown in.

All TG units require and function on the PSU-1, Chandler Limited power supply. The PSU-1 has an internal switch for setting voltage to 120V or 220V (115V/230V).

NOTE: As of late 2016, the TG Channel MKII was renamed the TG12411; there has been no modification to the MKII circuit.
