By Full Compass LiveWhether you need to track pristine vocals, crunched drums or electric guitars on the edge of sonic destruction, the VHD Pre delivers a powerful and versatile sound shaping tool kit - the perfect analogue companion to your digitalDefinition:
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 system.
Based on the VHD circuit from our acclaimed Duality consoleDefinition:
A control surface for audio, video, or lighting control positioned like a desk. Also called, Mixer, Controller, Board, or (British) Desk., the VHD Pre adds four SSL mic preamps to any line levelDefinition:
Audio signals around 0.5 volt, ranging from -10dBm to +4dBm. Originally called Telephone Line Level DAWDefinition:
DAW (Digital Audio Workstation): A computer program or stand-alone device that provides digital audio recording, editing, and mixing. audio interfaceDefinition:
A device to convert audio signals into digital code suitable for use by a computer; typically communication occurs through a port such as USB, Thunderbolt, FireWire, etc. , transforming it into a professional quality, multi-channelDefinition:
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. analogue recording system.
The four ultra-clean, high-grade mic preamps are combined with independentDefinition:
A electrical circuit that is separate for lighting control, or a light board channel independent of other controls or programming. Variable HarmonicDefinition:
An integer multiple of a frequency in sound and radio frequencies. Drive circuits that use 100% analogue signal paths to generate rich harmonic distortionDefinition:
The presence of harmonics at a device's output that are not components of the input signal, and is usually undesirable. - adding SSL analogue attitude to your digital recordings.
As you increase the input gain, the Variable Harmonic Drive circuit introduces a blendable mix of 2nd or 3rd harmonic distortion to your source material, taking it from gentle valve-style warmth through to trashy transistoresque grunge. It’s a new world of overdriven possibilities.
The Solid StateDefinition:
In electronics, making use of semiconductors like integrated circuits, transistors, diodes, Ices, and the like instead of vacuum tubes. Logic XLogix X-RackDefinition:
A frame for holding gear that meets an industry standard for enclosures. This specifies a 19 inch width, and a height that is some multiple of 1.75 inches. A rack frame can be open or enclosed, and has rails drilled with standardized screw holes for attaching rack equipment.. VHD Input Module is devilishly warm and a dirty alternative to the pure Mic AmpDefinition:
Abbreviation for either Ampere or Amplifier. Module. The front end combines classic SSL character with the modern Variable Harmonic Drive circuit, delivering a time machine of overdriveDefinition:
A musical effect caused by overloading an amplifier or speaker, which creates intentional distortion. characteristics.
