THE JOEMEEK Studio Channel VC1
The JOEMEEK STUDIO CHANNEL VC1 is a development of historic tried
and tested circuits and designs from the 1960's to the present day,
combined in a single outboard rack unit by acknowledged leaders in
analogue technology.
WHAT IT IS AND WHY:
The JOEMEEK Studio Channel is the result of continuing experimental and
development work carried out over a 5 year period to incorporate the best
of historically excellent sounding technology in a single package to bring the
finest possible sounds within the reach of the studios of today. It's best to
think of the Studio Channel as five separate pieces of equipment:
1) Input amplifier.
2) Compressor.
3) Gain make-up.
4) Meequalzer.
5) Enhancer.

1. THE INPUT AMPLIFIER
The microphone amplifier takes the audio signals from any microphone and
amplifies them up to 'line' level; that is, from a few millivolts, up to about a
volt. This function is not too difficult and the microphone amplifiers on
normal professional mixers do it quite well; BUT they cut costs and corners.
The JOEMEEK Studio Channel has an uncompromising approach, it uses
JOEMEEK’s latest current sensing microphone input, allowing the use of
virtually any microphone type while providing fantastic frequency response
and the lowest possible noise and distortion. By using the finest
components available for the purpose, and with proven high overload
amplifier design developed over many years, the performance is startlingly
good and silky smooth in sound.
