The pic above with the hyper control was a custom addition that Todd Langner did for Dave Linsk of Overkill.
That is his personal DCP-1 pictured. He also has another DCP-1 Elite that is stock.
Actually, I sold Dave Linsk that very same Hyper-Modded DCP-1 preamp.

Backstory -

When I used to work for tc electronic, I had a stack of Langner DCP-1's and sold several to my friends
(i.e. Dave and MGSchindel).

On a trip to California, I brought three DCP-1's to Todd.
I had him (remod to his spec) DCP-1 (#1) I had shipped in from Germany
that some other tech had made into an ELITE, as I recall.
As for DCP-1's (#2 & #3), I had Todd install every one of his DCP-1 mods into both.

I still own a super-modded DCP-1 and the other is Dave Linsk's.
These two Todd super-modded DCP-1's are currently the only two in existence.

I'm tossing around the idea of selling mine to MGSchindel.
We'll see...

Dave told me that he sent his off to Todd to do that hyper mod.
Next time I speak with him I'll bring this up and see there is more info:-)
Cheers,

I first discovered Langner products while working for a gear rental/storage place in Northern NJ.
The band Helmet was a client and I saw my first DCP-1 preamp there in 1994.
I would later purchase several DCP-1 preamps and turn my close friends on to them.

I think I had 5 of them pass through my hands at one time. I have a picture someplace
of many DCP-1 units stacked on top of each other - I had posted that picture to another forum
back in the day (Huge racks, I think.)

I know I previously sold Dave a Langner (non Elite) DCP-1. Very early version.
In fact, the DCP-1 chassis' metal box was actually folded by Todd's father, as per Todd.

MGSchindel ended up getting one of the many DCP-1's I had obtained.
One day he noticed some sort of semi-disconnected circuit inside it.
He 'connected it' and addt'l gain came on like a 'Firehose.'
Schindel would later call it the 'Genesis' Mod. (aka Hyper mod/Vicious Rumors Mod.)

I brought 3 DCP-1's to Todd during a trip to NAMM circa 1999-2002.

For 2 of the DCP-1 units, I asked Todd to install every possible DCP-1-related mod he had offered.
That resulted in 3 knobs on the back - ELITE CLEAN/HYPER DIST/ELITE DIST
Also, I had requested that the footswitch jacks (where needed) be converted
to tip-ring-sleeve style to accommodate additional options and to avoid drilling
more holes in the back panel.

For the 3rd DCP-1, I asked Todd to just make sure it was up to his OEM specs
and to correct anything that looked odd, etc.

Hello,

I just bought a DCP-1 "Elite" and would like to know what is the function of this jack (see pic).
I heard a lot of good review about this preamp, I used to have a MP-1 with killer mods so, hope to be not disapointed with the Langner Preamp, and hope to have enough high gain !!!!!!!!!! :D :D

I'm looking for the schematics, but I think thta I won't find them.... If someone can help, it will be great, and also for the hyper mod.....
Thanks ;-)

I can't see your pic, it's too small. I have the hyper modded one and an mp-1 with all the mods available. You won't be dissappointed with the Langer.
