Transistor technology.
XLR connector and output jack.
Preamp / compressor / de-esser / gate

UTILIZATION

The manual is clear and ample.

On the compressor, it is a disconcerting simplcité to use ..

The threshold and the rate is fixed the release.

The noise gate is quite useful to make direct takes to cut external sounds.
Attention to the balance between the input threshold and rate ... We need to use the following tests.

SOUND QUALITY

Used for the moment with a Rode NT2 taken for work (not DEF.), The preamp is neutral and the compressor does its job!

The preamp DBX does not stain and the compressor works like a compressor opto.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for two weeks of intensive, I find the report QP excellent. (Bought 80 €)

I also Joemeeck VC1Q and I prefer the preamp DBX, much more precise.
