This is the ultimate collaboration, Al Schmitt, 12 time Grammy winner for Sound Engineering and John Oram, the 'Father of British EQ'.

Unique to the Pro-channel is the ability to connect three different microphones and to switch between them for comparison (ABC). A Mic transformer bypass switch and phase. The precision VU meter can be switched to read mic source input, main output, compression input and reduction.

The optical compressor can be switched pre or post the EQ bands. The sound is soft-knee and translucent and features attack, release and ratio.

The EQ comprises 6 bands that can be switched in and out individually. All bands have fine step-controls of 24dB (for accurate setting and recalling), band signal activity and bypass switch. SUB: 5Hz - 160 Hz (bell curve adjust) LO-SHELF: 40Hz - 300Hz (shelf curve adjust) LO-MID: 150Hz - 2000Hz (bell curve adjust) HI-MID: 1kHz - 12kHz (bell curve adjust) HI-SHELF: 6kHz - 16kHZ (shelf curve adjust) AIR: 10kHz - 32kHz (bell curve adjust)

Al Schmitt is one of the industry's true greats. His work has spanned decades of excellence, working with the very top names in music, such as Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Madonna, Steely Dan, Jefferson Airplane, Doctor John, Quincy Jones and George Benson to mention just a few. Apart from Al's 12 Grammys, he has been awarded over 140 gold and platinum albums.
