Featuring a tube preamp, VCA-based compressor, and three-band EQ, it delivers a huge variety of timbres. With an XLR mic, balanced \u00bc-inch line, unbalanced \u00bc-inch instrument inputs and balanced XLR and \u00bc-inch outputs, you can connect it to almost any audio interface, amp or PA.<\/p>\n<p>The Class A preamp starts with a high-output 12AX7 tube for lots of headroom and a big tone. Gain and Tube Drive controls enable a wide range of sounds, from transparent and clear to edgy and overdriven. A -20 dB pad, 80 Hz high-pass filter and polarity reverse let you tweak your signals.<\/p>\n<p>PreSonus&#8217; VCA-based compressor is known for musicality and fast attack, with the ability to tame the fastest transients so you can record blazing-hot signals with accurate dynamics control. In addition to ratio, threshold, attack, release and gain controls, it offers an Auto Attack\/Release feature with preset attack and release curves. The backlit VU meter displays gain reduction or output gain.<\/p>\n<p>The three-band EQ is a precision tool that can be pre- or post-compressor, and you can bypass each stage independently. Custom-designed amps deliver sweet-sounding gain and cut for smooth highs, clear midrange and deep, solid lows. The midrange band is fully parametric, with variable Q, while the high- and low-frequency bands are semi-parametric, with Frequency and Gain controls, and can be shelving or peak bands.<\/p>\n<p>Features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Class A 12AX7 vacuum-tube mic\/instrument preamplifier with Tube Drive control<\/li>\n<li>Gain control with +10 dB to +54 dB gain range<\/li>\n<li>48V phantom power switch, 80 Hz high-pass filter, -20 dB pad, and Polarity-reverse switch<\/li>\n<li>Fully Variable VCA compressor with Attack, Release, Ratio, Threshold, and (makeup) Gain; Auto Attack\/Release switch; Soft\/Hard Knee switch; and Bypass switch<\/li>\n<li>3-band parametric equalizer with Gain, Frequency and Q controls (mid band); Gain and Frequency controls and Shelving\/Peak switches (low and high bands); switchable pre-\/post-compressor; Bypass switch<\/li>\n<li>Backlit VU meter with Gain Reduction to Meter switch (gain reduction or output gain)<\/li>\n<li>1 unbalanced \u00bc-inch instrument input (front panel), 1 balanced \u00bc-inch line input, and 1 balanced XLR mic input<\/li>\n<li>1 balanced \u00bc-inch and 1 balanced XLR line output<\/li>\n<li>1U 19-inch rack-mountable, rugged steel chassis with sealed, detented rotary controls<\/li>\n<li>External 16 VAC power supply<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"product-specifications-container\">\n<p class=\"anchor-target\" data-value=\"specifications\">\n<h4 class=\"product-description-heading product-description__sub-header\">Specifications<\/h4>\n<table class=\"product-description__specs unstriped\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Voltage<\/td>\n<td>120V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Channels<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Frequency Response<\/td>\n<td>10 Hz to 50 kHz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Total Harmonic Distortion<\/td>\n<td>100% Tube Drive: &lt;0.10%, 0% Tube Drive: &lt;0.050%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Phantom Power<\/td>\n<td>+48V (Switchable)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mic Preamp Input Impedance<\/td>\n<td>10 k\u03a9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dynamic Range<\/td>\n<td>&gt;115 dB<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Equivalent Input Noise<\/td>\n<td>-126 dB<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Main\/Line Output Max Level<\/td>\n<td>-20 dBu to +6 dBu (Analog VU), 51\u03a9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Connection Type<\/td>\n<td>16 VAC, External Power Supply<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Includes<\/td>\n<td>PreSonus Studio Channel, 16VAC 1000mA Power Supply, PreSonus Warranty Card<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dimensions<\/td>\n<td>19\u201d x 1.75\u201d x 5.5\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Weight<\/td>\n<td>2.3kg \/ 5 lbs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The PreSonus\u00ae Studio Channel channel strip is a wonderful studio tool that&#8217;s great for live performance, too.
