format_quote The Channel One is the ideal channel strip for reliable results with the highest sonic demands. Extensive automation for fast operation and musical sound characteristics guarantee first-class recordings from the first take.
Tube Preamp:
The pre-amplification stages offer three inputs:
The microphone input has 48 V phantom power, polarity reversal and an LF cut filter.
The line input has a precise balancing stage for connecting additional studio equipment.
The low-noise instrument input is easily accessible on the front panel.
De-Esser:
The De-Esser removes annoying S-sounds without affecting the sound. In contrast to conventional compressor techniques, the S-frequencies are detected in a very narrow band and are mixed in phase reversed to the original, whereby the S-sounds are deleted very unobtrusively.
Insert:
Via the insert (send/return) external effect devices (reverb, delay) can be inserted or the pure preamp signal can be sent out.
Compressor & Gate:
The compressor/limiter section is based on SPL’s Double-VCA-Drive circuit, which provides excellent noise and distortion data and delivers musical results even at extreme settings.
Equalizer & FET Distortion:
A new EQ section has been designed for Channel One, specifically designed for processing voices and acoustic and electronic instruments.
Output & HP-Monitoring:
With the headphone monitor, the singer/speaker can finally be fed an individual mix without latency problems. The mix via a mixing console is no longer necessary.
