Focusrite RED 7 Preamp, Compressor

Used in major Santa Monica recording studio. Employs the same superb mic pre-amp as the Red 1 and Red 8, with a dual-range mic gain pot that allows precise control across the full range of the device. Phantom power and phase reverse are also provided. The Line input is electronically balanced, with continuously variable gain. A high quality output fader offers +6dB gain to infinite attenuation, essential for direct recordings, or for accurate level matching after EQ and dynamics.

Added to this mic pre is a full dynamics section, optimised for vocals. With its superb signal path, outstanding ease of use, and an integrated all-in-one design, it is a powerful tool for voice recording in all situations from music studios to post-production. The compressor design is taken straight from the Red 3, and as on that unit, is characterised by low noise and distortion even with heavy processing. Relatively heavy compression can be applied whilst retaining a transparent natural sound. Ratio, gain make-up, threshold, attack and release are all continuously variable, and a program dependent auto-release mode can be switched in.

A swept high-pass filter allows effective treatment of problems such as rumble, bass lift and proximity effect. The de-esser/exciter stage can be switched to provide frequency-selective compression (de-essing) or excitation. The amount and centre frequency of the processor are continuously variable, and as all the unit's dynamics still use the Focusrite single-VCA technique, unwanted colouration of the sound is kept to an absolute minimum. A clear VU meter shows level after the pre-amp gain control, or displays compressor gain change. The Focusrite Red 7 Features.

Crafted to the highest standards, all the Red Processors are manufactured solely in the UK using machine-tooled, half-inch thick claret red anodised aluminium. The benefits of Focusrite's classic pre-amp topology include superb common-mode rejection, an excellent overload margin, an extremely low noise floor and super-wide bandwidth. Unique De-esser / Exciter module. The amount and centre frequency of the processor are continuously variable.

Fully discrete and balanced, offering superb low noise and distortion, and excellent common-mode rejection. Phase Reverse and Phantom Power. Available independently on each channel via firm-response illuminated switches. A single, easily-read illuminated porthole window VU is provided, switchable between input level and gain reduction.
