Aug 18 - 01:47 PM | Audio Hardware > Safe Sound Audio |
Safe Sound Audio (UK) first gained respect with the Model P1 channel strip, a "do all" recording channel that does many things well, but with a key focus on vocals. Today they releases the P501, the first channel strip in the 500 format ever.
The P501 is designed and built in the UK by Robert Campbell (former designer for Neve and Calrec). It features the same clean sound and control of the P1, and features never before included on a single 500 series format device. It is not just a phantom powered pre, or DI, or line level device, it's also a compressor and limiter with full metering on board for input and gain reduction. The P501 still only takes up a single space and is logically laid out.
Features :
• Mic Preamp (with phantom and +72dB of clean gain)
• DI (jack and ...

Aug 18 - 12:11 PM | Audio Hardware > ADAM Audio |
A significant evolution of ADAM Audio's critically acclaimed S-Series, the new SX-Series reference monitors feature completely redesigned transducers, drivers, and electronics to enable the most transparent reproduction possible.
All ADAM SX-Series monitors feature the new X-ART tweeter, which provides 4dB higher efficiency, an increased maximum sound pressure level of 3dB, and an expanded frequency response of up to 50kHz.
Other new components include an ultra-low distortion broadband A/B amplifier with 1MHz internal bandwidth, perfectly matched to the X-ART tweeter for a natural, uncolored sound with high resolution, and new Hexacone woofers with more linear excursion to optimize efficiency and accuracy.
The SX-Series consists of six different models ranging from small nearfield ...
