They are a transistor-based Class A design using the same full-bandwidth philosophy as the legendary Red and ISA mic pres, ensuring detail and clarity without coloration. The first 2 "super channels" also feature phase reverse as well as TRS jack inputs on the front for quick and easy, DI-free instrument plug-in.
8 line-level balanced (+4dBu) analog inputs and outputs are provided via 25-pin D-type connectors. These D-type connectors may be routed to 8 XLRs by means of an 8-way 25-pin D-type to 8 XLR breakout cable, available separately. In addition to the analog outputs, the OctoPre can be fitted with an ADAT interface card or AES/SPDIF/ADAT interface card (both available in the related product box below). With Class A Focusrite processing and almost all the interface options known to man, the Platinum OctoPre is the perfect partner for any Pro Tools system or any other digital audio workstation, making high-quality, multichannel recording easy. Also makes a great instant location recording solution or additional set of mic pres for any analog or digital console or hard disk recorder.
Nominal level +4dBu / -10dBV. Jack (channels one and two only). 25 pin D-type 8 channel line level analogue connector. 8 XLR inputs for Mic. Listing and template services provided by inkFrog.
