The Focusrite PLATINUM VOICEMASTER PRO Vocal Channel Strip With Vocal Enhancer - Perfect Front End For Any DAW.
The Focusrite PLATINUM VOICEMASTER PRO is designed to create the perfect vocal sound at an unbelievably competitive price point. The renowned Focusrite Class A mic pre amp from the original VoiceMaster is retained, but an instrument input has been added to the front fascia, along with phantom power, phase reverse and variable high-pass filter. A new vocal-friendly optical expander follows, providing smoother and more linear processing. Perhaps the most innovative of VoiceMaster Pro's exciting new features is a latency-free stereo monitoring section, providing comprehensive headphone monitoring of both the full mix and the vocal (alongside an FX send and return control). Finally, an end to DAW latency problems when tracking. Another revolutionary new departure is the 'Vintage Harmonics' processor, designed to emulate classic 70's tape-based vocal enhancement processes. The compressor is an updated version of the Platinum series optical device. As with the ISA 430, VoiceMaster Pro allows the user to change the position of both processing blocks within the signal-chain. (Both the compressor and the Vintage Harmonics sections can be moved around.) A new 'tuneable' Tube Sound circuit is also featured, providing greater control and clearer indication via an extra tone control knob and tri-colour 'Drive' LED. The 'voice-optimised' EQ follows, featuring improved breath and absence controls, enabling elegant handling of the varying aspects of male and female vocalists. The ISA 430's de-esser completes the set. This unit is also the first Platinum to feature a custom blue Focusrite VU meter. An optional A/D card is available, operating at 24 bit, 96 kHz with S/PDIF output and BNC Wordclock input, providing hassle-free digital connectivity.
