Pro Channel III

Get studio-quality input processing without breaking the bank with the ART Pro Channel III, a rackmounted channel strip with a Class-A FET mic preamp, selectable opto/tube or FET compressor, and semi-parametric 4-band EQ with sweepable mid frequencies. With selectable mic impedance and a Hi-Z front-panel input, you can handle virtually any input source.

The mic preamp section features a variable low-cut filter, gain control, a +20 dB boost, 48V phantom power, and impedance selection (600 ohms or Max). The compressor section allows you to switch between FET compression for a clean, modern, and transparent sound, or opto/tube for vintage warmth via the hand-selected 12AT7 tube. The EQ section sports a switchable low-cut filter (40 or 120 Hz) and, like the compression section, is completely bypassable. The channel strip also includes a Master volume knob. The Pro Channel III sports a real analog VU meter with meter trim adjustment, selectable input or output gain metering, and a dedicated 10-LED gain reduction meter. And with a universal internal power supply, you are guaranteed quality performance in any electrical environment.
