The 1U rack-mounting unit also incorporates high and low pass variable frequency filters, each with switchable slope values, dual high-resolution compressor-limiters, and simultaneous AES\/EBU, S\/PDIF and optical outputs. The sampling frequency is selectable to 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96kHz with the sync source selectable from word clock or Pro Tools Superclock.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLegendary audio equipment designer, Mr. Rupert Neve, who notes:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe digital age imposes completely new\u003cbr\u003econsiderations for high performance analogue\u003cbr\u003eaudio design and brings both advantages and\u003cbr\u003edisadvantages with it. These considerations cause\u003cbr\u003eus to completely re-think how to get the very\u003cbr\u003ebest out of each new design, such as the\u003cbr\u003especifically designed transformers I have\u003cbr\u003eincorporated into Pure PathTM technology.\u003cbr\u003eThe Pure PathTM Dual Mic Amp\u003cbr\u003eCompressor\/Limiter - or DMCL - is the result of\u003cbr\u003ethese careful considerations and designed to meet the changing needs of\u003cbr\u003eengineers and producers for a powerful yet compact outboard unit\u003cbr\u003ecombining the features they might wish for in their console of choice.\u003cbr\u003eThe DMCL comprises of two identical, closely matched Microphone and Line\u003cbr\u003eamplifiers followed by a high resolution Compressor-Limiter with pre\/post\u003cbr\u003eHigh and Low Pass Filters.\u003cbr\u003eThe Microphone Amplifier makes use of TLA techniques which provide\u003cbr\u003emany of the advantages of a transformer without the penalty of weight\u003cbr\u003eand cost. In common with my previous designs for the 9098i Console and\u003cbr\u003eSYSTEM 9098 outboard equipment, it features very low noise even at mid\u003cbr\u003egain settings and can accept a full + 26 dBu input signal at unity gain.\u003cbr\u003eBecause of the increasing use of outboard equipment in the Control Room,\u003cbr\u003eI have added a balanced INSTRUMENT input to each of the Microphone\u003cbr\u003eAmplifiers. These are accessible by a _ stereo jack on the front panel and\u003cbr\u003ehave a very high input impedance, 2.2 Megohms.\u003cbr\u003eThe Compressor is an all analogue design which musically emulates the\u003cbr\u003ebest of my past designs and includes a control of the knee shape ranging\u003cbr\u003efrom HARD to a very gentle transition which I have called \u0026amp;MM\u003cbr\u003e(and Much More!) the description a friend gave it!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449495122023,"sku":"30057","price":1695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/used_amek_dmcl_front_46854e38-c5dc-4d90-a48e-80f4793a64d7.jpg?v=1787089199","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/amek-dmcl-dual-mic-amp-compressor-limiter-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
