Thank you for purchasing the Chandler Limited Little Devil Pre Amp. Your Devil is handmade in the USA by real
people. What does that mean? We do not use large solder or component machines that pick and solder the parts.
We pay a real person to do it like they did in the golden age of gear. We do not have most of our work done in
China only to do nal assembly in America and then call it made in USA. We do not use surface mount
components or ribbon cables that have been recently developed to shrink the size and build time of cell phones
and computers. Instead we use time proven through-hole audio components, discrete transistors, and large
transformers just like they did in the golden age of gear.
At Chandler we are proud of our American made products and we hope you like them!
The Little Devil Pre uses a 100% discrete transistor circuit and specially wound transformers. Included are item
descriptions and hints to get you on your way.
Please feel free to call our shop anytime for help or questions.
Prior to sending in your gear for repair, please contact our shop at the number listed below. We will assist you
in troubleshooting the problem and, if needed, we will issue you an RMA# to send in the gear.

Connections - All connections on the Devils are transformer balanced with pin 2 hot.
Current draw -
Here are the current draw specications for the Little Devil Preamp when the Devil is loaded 600 ohm
and operating at a continuous level of unity gain. Please consult your rack and PSU specications to
make sure you are not overloading your system.
+16 volt power rail = +95ma
-16 volt power rail = -70ma

COMPATIBILTY-
The Little Devil Pre is tested and proven to have no start up or power errors in these racks-
API 500v 10-slot with L200 PSU
API 500-6B Lunchbox
API 500-6B HC “new version Lunchbox
BAE 11-slot with power one supply

As of the release of this product we have not yet tested with the Radial Workhorse.
POWER SUPPLY RECOMMENDATIONS-
With ANY 500 modules (not just the Devils) we recommend using a rack with external supply. We feel a
power supply in such close proximity to the right hand slots of the rack can cause hum and noise oor
issues with many modules by many manufacturers. For this reason we mainly recommend the API 500v
rack with external L200 supply and the BAE 11-slot with external supply.
NOTES on BAE racks-
We recommend adding a wire from Earth to power supply common on all BAE racks. In many cases hum
can be avoided and Earth to common is standard procedure on most electronic equipment.
GAIN - max gain 66.5
MIC/LINE- There are three dierent input types on the Devil 500. Mic/line switches
between two of them - the transformer balanced mic or the line inputs. The Little Devil 500
pre is more than just a mic pre. It is processor. Switching to line input processes any
line level source such as tape or DAW tracks, buss submixes or the complete stereo
buss. For unbalanced sources such as bass and keyboards select the DI input.
LOW/HIGH- Selects low or high impedance for BOTH mic and line freq response.
FEEDBACK/BIAS-
How the feedback and bias works. Some users may be familiar with our Germanium
pre amp which incorporated variable negative feedback in a pre amp for possibly the
rst time. On the Devil we wanted to take this a step further and allow you to change the
bias of the gain stage AT THE SAME TIME as the feedback.
So what does this mean?
Well you can modify about any parameter of the sound of the pre with the use of the feedback/bias
control. It will change the frequency response in the hi and low areas, harmonic distortion, nature of
clipping, and the overall tonal characteristic of the pre amp. For example with the feedback on full the
sound gets gushy” as users have described. The unit will soft clip much earlier, harmonics increase
exponentially, hi frequency is slightly increased and the unit takes on a very high voltage overbiased”
Class A personality.
With the feedback control low you get a very colored but more tame sound. Harmonics are very low
(in the range of .007%) and noise is the lowest possible with the unit, in the area of -93db. The sound
could be described as an accurate but interestingly colored Class A sound.
With the Feedback/Gain near the middle of its operation you will get the most headroom and what
could be considered the most typical operation of a mic pre. All parameters tend to come into the
norm for a Class A style mic pre, BUT don't let that keep you from using it set there! The pre always has
a great colored sound we all look for!
