The Hudson Electronics Dual Broadcast is a hand built, discrete Class-A germanium preamp pedal inspired by the warm, rich tones of 1960s broadcast consoles. Crafted in the U.K by Michael Hudson, the Dual Broadcast elevates these iconic vintage console tones with added functionality for live players and tone chasers, now offering footswitchable low and high gain modes, each with independent level controls for seamless switching on the fly.

At its heart lies a transformer coupled, Class-A germanium topology using a carefully selected steel core Triad transformer and vintage style Germanium transistor. The result is dynamic, touch sensitive tone ranging from sparkling clean boosts and transparent overdrive to saturated, harmonically rich distortion with a fuzzy edge.

In low gain mode, the pedal delivers open, responsive tones with subtle midrange thickening and natural compression, perfect for stacking or pushing the front end of your amp. Kick it into high gain via the dedicated footswitch, and you unlock a more driven, textured voice ideal for bold rhythm work or saturated lead tones. Each mode has internal gain trimmers, allowing players to fine tune their response to suit any rig or playing style.

Housed in a rugged battleship grey enclosure with Marconi style knobs, the Dual Broadcast isn’t just sonically beautiful, it’s built to endure the demands of touring and studio life alike. Whether you're sculpting tones in the studio or need two distinct gain levels on stage without compromise, the Dual Broadcast delivers vintage tone with modern control.
