The new model 2960 brought a facelift to one of our best-selling
products. Now the new SPL design represents the common origin of our channel
strips Frontliner,
Channel
One and Track One.
However, technically we did not change anything to
continue with tried and tested quality.
The Track One is a complete mono channel strip with a very
attractive price/performacne ratio. It is a perfect tool for the fast and safe
recording of voices and instruments and especially popular in the German
broadcasting industry.
The Track One meets highest demands in sound quality
and reliability and covers an unlimited application range from studio over live
to post production applications.
Features
- Preamp stages optimized for all microphone types and instruments
- SPL‘s De-Esser
- Compressor/limiter stage
- 3-band EQ stage
- Output stage with metering
- Balanced XLR and 1/4 inch TRS connectors
- Options: A/D
converter and Lundahl
input transformer
The controls are reduced to the necessary basics to ensure
highest user-friendliness. Therefore, working with the Track One can be
dramatically time-saving which is most important especially in live situations.
Its excellent sound quality qualifies the Track One as a
highly recommended alternative to built-in console preamps and processing tools.
All the modules are immediately at hand for fast interactions. Recording a voice
and providing clarity, detail and intelligibility is a question of seconds.
The microphone input can optionally be equipped with a
transformer input stage. These transformers already amplify the microphone
signals by factor 5 – the preamps are relieved by this factor at any gain
setting. The balanced output can also be equipped with optional transformers.
The compressor can be linked with a second Track One
compressor for coherent stereo operation of two units.
A central display shows metering for output level and gain
reduction and all other status LEDs.
Another option is a digital output via a 24bit/96kHz A/D
converter card.
A special feature of the printed circuitry layout is the
central star ground wiring scheme: Disturbing influences that could affect the
ground paths are minimized in that the audio-ground is separated from the ground
of the remaining equipment. This leads, in the truest sense of the word ”clean”,
to considerably improved tonal quality.
The scatter free toroidal transformer supplies the equipment
with the necessary voltages and forms the basis for a clean electrical supply to
all parts of the circuitry.
