No, not the pronoun.

Just want to give a shout out to a local company which makes audio ICs for the professional equipment market: THAT Corporation of Milford, MA. They manufacture a line of integrated circuits including:

• Balanced Line Receivers
• Preamplifiers
• Digital Microphone Preamplifier Sets
• Digitally Programmable Gain Controllers
• OutSmarts® Balanced Line Drivers
• Analog Engine® Dynamics Processors
• Blackmer® Voltage Controlled Amplifiers

ICs are available through Mouser Electronics.

Sparkfun has just announced balanced line input and output breakout boards using THAT ICs: balanced audio input and balanced audio output. Gotta keep these in mind for future projects!

If you’re a pedal DIY’er, be sure to check out THAT’s Pedal Page, too.
