| DCS Remote Preamp 2 channel mic preamp and cue system
Universal Audio has
partnered with original Euphonix founders Scott and Rob Silfvast
to design a revolutionary series of DAW "expansion &
enhancement" products under the Desktop Console System
(DCS) family brand. DCS combines UA's pedigree for sonic
excellence with the usability/features of professional consoles
in a new type of convenient "micro-console" desktop
form factor, ideal for today's project/producer studios.
The first two products in the DCS series (the Remote Pre &
Monitor Master) combine a base station with a DCS-Link™
connected remote that puts every control within direct proximity
to the user in a convenient remote format.
The DCS Remote Preamp combines two
console-grade mic-pres, specialized monitoring capabilities for
artist & engineer, and easy remote control/DAW integration
making an ideal upgrade to the basic features/sonics found in
most audio interfaces. With 100% digital control of analog, the
Remote Preamp offers fully remote-controllable, highly detailed,
uncolored recording based on its advanced transimpedance design.
The two channels of the DCS Remote Preamp can be used dual mono
or can be joined for stepped, matched-stereo gain structuring.
Plus a Mid/Side encoder is included, allowing for direct
recording of the MS-Stereo result.
The Remote Pre also features a
high-quality headphone amp with "monitoring only"
effects such as user-tailored reverb and EQ, making it easy to
quickly create an artist monitor mix without having to deal with
complex configuration or latency issues inside the DAW. Best of
all, the remote control can be placed anywhere from desktop to
recording room, giving the artist flexibility unlike any other
device in its class. Position the preamp as close to the source
as desired, or remotely control your own recording experience
away from the computer as you keep the remote close at hand.
Lastly, the DCS Remote Preamp offers high quality backlit VU
metering for observing Preamp Output or DAW/Cue levels.
