We have  combined four elements - Mic\/DI preamp, Opto-compressor, EQ, and  De-esser -into a fully integrated package that it makes it easy to track  any source. In addition, the Mic\/DI preamp, EQ and Compressor\/De-esser  are completely independent entities that can be patched out and used  separately - a hand feature that makes it a valuable tool for mixing as  well as tracking. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Mic\/DI preamp, borrowed from our acclaimed MDP-1, can handle mics,  pickups, keyboards, or line-level signals. It features phantom power,  input pad, phase reversal, and a switchable lo-cut filter. Independent  gain and output controls permit overdrive of the tube stage to vary the  harmonic content of the preamp. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Opto-Compressor, derived from the popular OCL-2, uses our  proprietary optoelectronic cell, and has a sound all its own. It can be  used in one of four modes: Fast (for 'invisible' compression), Average  (rms responding), a new Vintage mode (with program-dependent response),  or full manual operation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Our new 3 band tube EQ, a modifed Baxandall design, is simple but very  effective. The HI and LO bands have up to ﾱ10dB of shelving at 15, 10  and 7 kHz, and 50, 100 and 200 Hz respectively. The MID band has a broad  ﾱ10dB peaking response centered at 0.7, 1.6, 2.2, 3.3, 5.0 and 6.5 kHz.  The EQ can be placed before or after the compressor with the flip of a  switch. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The new De-esser, which is implemented within the opto-compressor, uses  an entirely new approach. A highly selective inductor-based detector  triggers a very fast opto-inductive notch filter. The user can control  the depth of the notch, which in turn controls amount of sibilance to be  removed. When not triggered, the de-esser is out of the signal path  entirely","brand":"Pendulum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449495384167,"sku":"21545","price":2395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/used_pendulum_quartet_1021_e6a8cc32-63bc-4cba-841f-8b3fb53dea6c.jpg?v=1787089199","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/pendulum-quartet-1021-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
