The DS-1
Atomic’s philosophy is to afford its’ customers the opportunity to choose the brand of modeler or
preamp that they prefer, and thus enjoy the sonic characteristics that they demand. The DS- 1
allows Atomic Reactor Series amplifiers to act as a platform for select digital amp modelers and
other types of related equipment. When using a modeler installed in the DS-1, all of the signal
input and output as well as the power supply connections are made (see page 5). No wall wart or
external power is required, the Reactor automatically selects and sends the correct power /
voltage to the modeler loaded into the DS-1. Installation and de-installation requires no tools.
The DS-1 is then loaded into the Reactor 112. The DS-1 design gives the user the ability to
“quick swap” (you don’t have to turn the Reactor on or off and wait for the tubes to come up to
speed) the Dock into and out of the Reactor. With the “quick swappable” capability designed into
the DS-1 you can quickly change Dock/modeler combination.
