ART Tube Channel 259 | 1U rack mount | tube microphone preamp, compressor & equalizer channel strip
from ART:
“The Tube Channel is a unique product. It contains three independent award-winning circuit designs: one of the finest tube microphone preamplifiers available, one of the finest optical tube compressors available, and one of the most flexible EQs you’ve ever used -- all in one unit. Developed in partnership with studio and live sound engineers, the Tube Channel possesses a “sound” that is not available from any other product on the market -- at any price! The Tube Channel was designed and constructed with the best components, assuring a lifetime of quiet, reliable performance. The Tube Channel offers:
- The award winning A R T “SOUND”!
- A Tube-based mic/line preamplifier
- An Electro-optical compressor design
- A Tube-based semi-parametric, four-band equalizer
- Hand-selected preamp tubes
- VCA-less compressor circuitry (i.e., transparent dynamics control)
- Unique tube drive and gain reduction metering
- VU output level metering
- Bypassable compression and equalization circuitry
- XLR balanced inputs and outputs
- ¼” TS unbalanced inputs and outputs
- A Custom extruded aluminum chassis
- ¼” unbalanced insert points between the preamp and compressor and between the compressor and equalizer
- +48V phantom power
- Phase reversal
- Over 70dB of gain
- Detented rotary controls
- Compression and limiting ratios
- Selectable release time settings
- >90dB dynamic range
- An Internal power supply
- The Tube Channel was Designed and manufactured in the USA.”
