The Quad Tutti™ is a four-channel microphone and instrument preamplifier built from the legendary Sunset Sound Studio 1 console design. For the first time ever, this historic circuit is available in a single-rack-unit, multi-channel format. Delivering the unmistakable tone of one of recording history’s most celebrated preamps with the workflow today’s studios demand.
The original Sunset Sound Studio 1 preamp — developed by Tutti Camarata and Sunset Sound’s engineering team — helped define the sound of thousands of classic recordings. Known for its musical warmth, clarity, and dynamic depth, it became a cornerstone of one of the most influential recording environments in the world.
Now, Wolff Audio founder Paul Wolff, working alongside Paul Camarata, has faithfully preserved and expanded this design for contemporary production. Building on years of proven 500-series implementations, the Quad Tutti marks the first true four-channel rackmount version of this revered circuit.
The result: authentic Sunset Sound character, ready for modern multi-mic tracking — all in a single rack space.
Every detail of the Quad Tutti reflects a commitment to preserving the original sonic experience. The transformers are produced by Cinemag — the same company that manufactured the original transformers for the Sunset Sound console — ensuring the harmonic richness, musical response, and dynamic integrity engineers expect from this legendary design.
Four perfectly matched channels deliver a tone that is warm, open, and authoritative — equally at home on vocals, drums, guitars, bass, and orchestral sources.
No unnecessary features. No gimmicks. Just exceptional signal integrity and the sound of true recording history.
