Our flagship recording channel features separate Class-A mic & instrument preamps with two selectable tube gains, de-esser, twin-core compressor/limiter, EQ with Air band and tube saturation. Thanks to it's individual analog I/Os, all these powerful, hi-end analog processors can be inserted during mixing.

Key features:

• Features mic & instrument preamps, de-esser, EQ, tube saturation & compressor
• Individual analog I/Os
• 3 separate, individually optimized inputs for microphones, line signals & instruments
• Discrete semiconductor/tube hybrid preamplifier to combine the advantages – high dynamic range & low noise operation of semiconductors with the musical qualities of tube sounds
• Discrete construction is based upon single transistors instead of integrated circuits (ICs) from industrial production & ensures a higher level of optimization
• 250 volts tube circuits in the preamplifier & for tube saturation stages
• High-grade operational amplifiers from Burr-Brown at critical positions
• De-Esser applies the method of phase cancellation for reducing sibilants
• Operated by SPL’s double VCA drive circuitry. A differential stage eliminates side effects & the half load per VCA dramatically reduces THD
