Description
The Studio Channel tube channel strip from PreSonus delivers high-quality audio processing for musicians and producers. The Studio Channel combines a class A tube preamplifier, VCA compressor and 3-band parametric equalizer in one convenient rack-mountable unit. Designed for recording vocals, acoustic guitars, bass, piano and more, the Studio Channel provides stunning sound and maximum control over your tone.
Class A Tube Preamplifier for Warm, Smooth Sound
The Studio Channel features a high-output 12AX7 tube preamplifier for rich, full sound with plenty of headroom. Dual gain and tube drive controls offer a range of sounds from pristine clarity to saturated overdrive. The preamp's class A design and high operating voltage provide a warm, musical tone that brings depth and realism to recordings.
Fast, Transparent Compressor with Auto-Attack
The Studio Channel's VCA compressor provides ultra-fast yet smooth dynamics control. With fully adjustable ratio, threshold, attack, release and gain makeup settings, the compressor can tame transient peaks without coloring the sound. An auto-attack feature offers presets for vocals, drums and more. The compressor's versatile, musical design suits a wide range of signals from vocals to bass guitar.
3-Band Parametric EQ for Precision Tone Shaping
Tailor your sound with the Studio Channel's 3-band parametric equalizer. The EQ features semi-parametric high and low bands with selectable peak/dip or shelving filters. The fully parametric mid band provides control over frequency, gain and bandwidth. With its variable Q control and +/-15dB of boost/cut per band, the EQ offers precise tone shaping to enhance the preamp and compressor's outstanding sonic performance.
Rugged, All-Metal Design Built to Last
Housed in a rugged all-metal 1U rack chassis, the Studio Channel is built to withstand the demands of professional studio use. Gold-plated XLR and 1/4" TRS connectors provide secure, noise-free connections. With its premium components and solid construction, the Studio Channel delivers years of flawless performance.
