«  Cheap and not bad »

Published on 12/06/10 at 14:04
c is a console 16 in-line entries, so with back step, direct out and insert a slice through, 8 to (max 3Department on 1 slice), 4 stereo buss, 4 stereo returns etc etc.
c is very comprehensive and intelligently route and I must say that c is my first analogue console in-line, I have yet 01V96 that I used to live, and admire the complexity of a small beast that works with that voltage! !
the preamp al have air potato, clean up after the knob
the eq is composed of a high pass at 50Hz, a semi-parametric 4bandes with severe acute assignable to 60 or 120hz and 8 or 12kHz, no regulation of Q on the 2 mediums
Apart from the preamp, T0UTES the connections are made by jacks

UTILIZATION

very easy to grip, manual in English, short but precise.
I do not know the in-line, but C is very intuitive, basically what consoles are thoughtful, if t you need to send your signal somewhere, you'll make it forever.
all knobs are at the limit of cheap but it happens, at least ca m is still not in the fingers.

SOUNDS

After 3 days of testing, I'm still not sure of the preamp c is on it s not ua610! I nevertheless think that they do their taf, but I keep a few quality preamp for divas and soloists ...
I found the EQ very nice, very musical and not assaulted at all, there are ways to work in very serious result very quickly, the highs are very sweet. Well the fact that there is no Q is really hard to use the mediums of J will still blow plugs that run on protools equalizer for more finely.
I have tried to saturate a few slices or stereo output, c s still a dirty, there's stuff or AC plugs that are better.


OVERALL OPINION

Course I will sharpen my mind over the months but I think I m fun with this little critter! I wanted to get out of ProTools and I think that c is a good place to start, which made its taf, affordable and m learning how to use of an in-line. AC probably not worth a api or wunderbar but at this price it, c is happiness: 16 preamps, AC allows you to use external processors and t have the 16 drinking eq.
