esigned for the performing artist,
Crate’s CA60D Acoustic Amplifier
gives you more of what you want.
More power. More clarity. More control. And,
more freedom. Imagine: microphone quality
sound, without feedback. And without being
“chained” to a mic stand!
More power: twin 30-watt RMS power
amplifiers drive a pair of specially designed
high fidelity 6-1/4” transducers for plenty of
volume and low end punch.
More clarity: a highly efficient Piezo tweeter provides clean crisp highs and natural
midrange blend. A tweeter on / off switch on
the rear panel allows you to deactivate the
high frequency driver if desired.
More control: two independent channels,
each with its own gain and reverb/effects
controls. The Instrument channel features an
“Active/Piezo” switch to properly match the
pickups of your instrument, a “Shape” switch
for a richer soumd, and a three-band rotary
EQ. An easy-to-use feedback elimination circuit with frequency select and cut controls lets
you kill feedback without sacrificing sound
quality. Plus a footswitchable chorus with
depth and rate controls.
The Vocal/Aux channel offers both low
and high impedance inputs and allows the
use of a rhythm machine, background tape, or
another mic or instrument.
Still more: The master section features
reverb return control and the master level
control. A footswitch jack on the rear panel
provides control for reverb and chorus.
Level-controllable XLR and 1/4” balanced
line outs allow you to patch into house sound
boards or recording consoles, plus an effects
loop line-in/line-out setup allows connection
of external effects.
Enough already? Not for us. The CA60D
features Crate’s Digital Signal Processing
(DSP) for a variety of digital reverbs, effects
and delays specifically designed for acoustic
instruments.
The CA60D was designed, evaluated,
tweaked and redesigned by musicians and
music loving engineers. Highly sophisticated
computer driven assembly machines and
highly skilled assemblers use only the finest
components to produce each amp. Every cabinet is hand-built and hand-covered by trained
craftsmen. The final assembled product is
tested – and played – by skilled musician/
technicians. It is only after the amplifier has
passed this barrage of picky people that it
gets packed up and shipped out.
The CA60D Acoustic Amplifier. Designed
to be its best, so you can sound your best!
