International Orders*XLogic Alpha Channel from Solid State Logic is a single channel microphone preamp with EQ, limiting and analog to digital conversion. The unit represents the perfect front-end for digital audio workstation and brings SSL's sonic legacy to the professional studio or desktop recording environment.
The microphone preamp provides front-panel line and instrument level switching, along with studio-class EQ, filter and limiter sections. A "Variable Harmonic Drive" circuit provides numerous colorations to the input signal by allowing the user to dial in specific amount of second and third order harmonics.
Dedicated "send" and "return" connectors allow for inserting a compressor or other external processor into the signal chain of the preamp. The XLogic Alpha Channel also includes a professional grade 24-bit analog to digital converter for direct digital connection to a digital recorder or DAW.
