NL Focusrite Voicemaster Pro Voice Channel

Full Description

Many of the elements from the award-winning VoiceMaster have been innovated upon. In addition, the unit features a whole host of new processors designed to ensure you have all you require to make the most of the artist you're recording.

The award-winning Class A preamp captures every nuance from any source, whilst latency-free monitoring ensures direct and delay-free mix control. Tools such as the voice-optimised EQ, Vintage Harmonics and Tube Sound allow you to get creative with a touch of class, putting your own stamp on every recording.

All of this, combined with the optional 24 bit, 96 kHz digital output board means that VoiceMaster Pro is the perfect interface between your microphone and your DAW or other recording media, placing the ultimate tracking solution firmly within your grasp.

Please note: The power supply featured in VoiceMaster Pro is not a switching power supply. Consequently, 120v VM Pros are not suitable for use in 220-240v territories, and vice versa.

Features:

Latency-free monitoring section - a separate stereo monitoring circuit that allows the user to monitor vocal + FX loop (e.g. to add reverb) + mix played back from e.g. DAW and control levels of these three sources, removing latency. (VoiceMaster has no monitoring section.)

24/96 digital output option, using the same A/D card as Penta and Trak Master. (VoiceMaster has no digital connectivity.)

Backlit VU output meter (VoiceMaster has no VU meter)
