Focusrite's Red 1 500 offers a compact interfaceFullcompass LogoDefinition:
A device that adds I/O capability to another device. Common would be a MIDI, audio or video interface for a computer.
to digitalFullcompass LogoDefinition:
A signal or data expressed as series of the digits 0 and 1, typically represented by values of a physical quantity such as voltage or magnetic polarization.
recording systems or for location recordings as well as convenient access in any control room, with a Lundahl LL1538 input transformerFullcompass LogoDefinition:
A passive electromagnetic device that uses one or more coils of wire to isolate or split signals. Also may convert impedance and voltage levels. May be used to eliminate ground loops, reduce Rf interference or crosstalk.
, just as in the original; switchable phantom powerFullcompass LogoDefinition:
A source of power for a microphone (usually condenser) that travels to the microphone over the microphone's cable. There are different voltage standards and requirements for different microphones, but the most common standard is 48 Volts. It derives its name because there is no visible power cable.
; polarityFullcompass LogoDefinition:
1. In electricity, the quality that indicates whether the pole of a direct current device like a battery has more electrons than the other (negative polarity) or fewer electrons than the other (positive polarity), which relates to the direction of current flow.  2. In audio, a reference to whether a point in a signal is above or below the zero voltage line (positive or negative, respectively). Reversing polarity "flips" a signal so that if a point in its waveform was positive, that point will be negative instead. Often confused with phase. See: Phase.
invert; and an illuminated classic porthole VU meterFullcompass LogoDefinition:
(Volume Unit Meter) A meter that shows average audio signal level in dBs, with a flat frequency response and ballistics that prevent the meter position from fluctuating excessively.

recordings. Mic gainFullcompass LogoDefinition:
The amount of amplification provided by an amplifier circuit, expressed in dB or numerically as in "3X" = "3 times".
is switched (with a Grayhill gold-plated military-grade switch) in 6dB steps from -6 to +60dB, for accurate, precise channelFullcompass LogoDefinition:
1. In radio, television, citizen's band radio, and other wireless communications modes, a specific frequency for communication.  2. In mixers and video, an input or output signal path with controls.  3. In MIDI, one of 16 data paths.

The unique Focusrite mic ampFullcompass LogoDefinition:
Abbreviation for either Ampere or Amplifier.
topology provides superb common mode rejectionFullcompass LogoDefinition:
The ability of a balanced input to reject signals common to both terminals.
, excellent overloadFullcompass LogoDefinition:
Causing a device to exceed its capability, usually undesirable but used for an "overdrive" effect in music. Also called "blooming" in classic recordings. See: Overdrive.
margin and, with its shared gain structureFullcompass LogoDefinition:
Multiple interconnected components and their relative gain or operating level, which work together to maximize headroom and minimize noise.
, (14dB from the transformer and up to 46dB from the amplifierFullcompass LogoDefinition:
1.  A device that increases the voltage or power of a signal. 2.  In music performance, a device such as a guitar amplifier that includes speakers and controls to increase the sound level of acoustic or electric instruments.
) a very low noise floorFullcompass LogoDefinition:
The unalterable, lowest noise level within a system, measured in dB. For example, microphone preamp hiss might set the noise floor in a recording situation.
, combined with the traditional wide bandwidthFullcompass LogoDefinition:
A range of frequencies that a device can generate, reproduce, or process. This usually implies little or no alteration within the range.
of the original Red series (10Hz to 140kHz). This exceptional level of performance is maintained over a wide range of impedances applied to the input, making the Red 1 500 suitable for almost any microphone—ribbon, dynamic or condenserFullcompass LogoDefinition:
An archaic term for Capacitor.
