Five-stage design for huge gain and low noise.
Overview
The VC6Q makes the perfect mic and instrument companion, combining an excellent preamp, photo optical compression, and the amazing Meequalizer channel.
The VC6Q British Channel
The VC6Q is a combination of Joemeek's industry acclaimed 5 stage mic pre amplifier, photo compressor, and Meequalizer channel — features that make the unit ideal for recording studio and live sound instrument/vocal applications.
In the studio, the VC6Q offers a complete, high-quality channel for the recording of a voices and instruments, either directly or with a microphone. When used live, the unit can be used as the interface between an instrument or microphone and PA desk, to achieve a processed sound suitable for amplification that has amazing depth and power that will add a new dimension to a performance. The VC6Q does this by combining the following key products into a purpose built unit:
Microphone Preamplifier
Five-stage design for huge gain and low noise. This preamplifier is well featured with 48V Phantom power, 20dB Pad, Phase reverse, overload indicator, front-mounted special passive instrument input, and a rear panel mounted XLR mic input and 1/4 in. jack line input. There is also a line/instrument in select switch with indicator.
Joemeek Compressor
A full mono photo optical Joemeek compressor with 'compression' control for threshold, fully variable slope (ratio), plus variable attack and release controls. This is complimented by a 5 LED gain reduction indicator array and in/out… read more switch with indicator.
Joemeek Meequalizer
As well as providing a stunning input interface, the VC6Q has a full channel of the legendary time, or afterwards during mixing. There are rotary controls for ±15db LF shelf, HF shelf, plus parametric mid sweep and ±15db mid control (see VC5 literature for parameters). This section is also equipped with an in/out switch and indicator. This will provide vintage EQ sounds at tracking.
Peripheral features of the 6Q include dual 'Superbal' outputs, a pre compression and EQ insert point and a full 9 LED smooth tracking LED input meter to help you control signal levels. The VC6Q is a highly featured, functional studio item, yet it is also hand made in England from traditional pro audio grade components to ensure that the quality and integrity of your sounds is maintained and enhanced.
The VC6Q makes an ideal addition to a digital recording studio, offering an excellent way of getting sounds into disk or tape based recording systems, giving your tracks the incredible Meek compression and MeekQ sounds, with the added bonus of bypassing unnecessary equipment before the recorder. This will lower the noise of your recording, and keep the signal's musical integrity. Tracking through a VC6Q will greatly improve on directly recorded sounds through mixing desk channels, and will give you the tools to make a better mix than you could ever make before.
Joemeek is proud of the VC6Q. Use it. In the studio or live, you won't believe the difference it makes to your sounds! read less
