The VSP-2 solves that in hardware: main gain sits on a ten position Grayhill switch in 6 dB steps across a 12 to 72 dB range, and fine trim runs on a separate 41 click Alps pot covering 0 to 6 dB. Both values can be noted and reproduced click for click, including across the two channels when you are working a stereo pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAn instrument input with nothing in the way\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Instrument In socket is an unbalanced input wired straight to the Twin OPA stage with no circuitry in between, which makes it a genuine DI. Throw the switch and play; the output mutes briefly so nothing cracks through the monitors. For microphone work there is ramped 48 V phantom power, a 20 dB pad that does not change the input impedance, a polarity switch and a 12 dB per octave low cut filter at either 80 Hz or 120 Hz. The signal LED reads green across the usable range and red at +19 dBu, with no ambiguous orange state in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo independent channels in dual mono configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully discrete Twin Op Amp OPA 1976 gain stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformer isolated microphone input with a 1:2 ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain from 12 to 72 dB on a Grayhill switch in 6 dB steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine gain trim of 0 to 6 dB on a 41 click pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstrument input wired directly to the input stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput muted when switching to the instrument input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow cut filter at 12 dB per octave, 80 Hz or 120 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRamped 48 V phantom power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 dB pad that does not affect input impedance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolarity reverse switch on each channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo state signal and clip LED with no ambiguous middle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput impedance: 1.5 kOhm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain range: 12 to 72 dB plus 0 to 6 dB fine trim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 116 dB at 36 dB gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz to 35 kHz (±1 dB) at 36 dB gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum input level at 20 Hz: +9 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum output level: +24 dBu into 600 Ohm, balanced floating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: -81 dBu (20 Hz-22 kHz, unweighted, RMS) at 36 dB gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronically floating output, That 1646 type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClip LED threshold: +19 dBu at the output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinear power supply with toroidal transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMains voltage: 115 V or 230 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel chassis with electrostatic and magnetic shielding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"VERTIGO SOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54530360213841,"sku":"28979","price":3499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/VERTIGOSOUNDVSP-2MicPre.jpg?v=1786442356"},{"product_id":"vertigo-sound-vsc-3-compressor","title":"VERTIGO SOUND VSC-3 Compressor","description":"\u003cdiv lang=\"en\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVertigo Sound VSC-3\u003c\/strong\u003e is a two channel compressor built around four discrete 1979 VCAs: one in the audio path and one in the sidechain of each channel.

Soft mode is not a conventional soft knee. It is a level dependent ratio that rises smoothly from 1:1 up to 8:1 as the signal grows, which keeps the onset of gain reduction inaudible and brings the character close to classic opto and variable mu designs. For firmer work there are 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, 10:1 and Brick at 40:1, and the ratio switch compensates for loudness, so you compare tone rather than level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA sidechain that does not pump on the kick\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the compressor starts breathing along with kick and bass, you engage the SC filter. Both curves are deliberately gentle, so the low end is not cut out of the detector entirely, only processed less. Stereo SC mode uses both independent detectors, and the higher peak on either channel triggers reduction on both, so the VSC-3 responds to out of phase signals without shifting the stereo image. Mono SC narrows the image but glues a subgroup harder.

The high pass filter sweeps from 10 Hz to 400 Hz, works independently of the EQ section and bypasses completely when it is not needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree band equaliser in dual mono configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEighteen selectable frequencies per channel, six per band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix discrete gyrators in the equalisation path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable Q: the band narrows as correction increases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStepped cut and boost: ±1, ±2, ±3.5, ±5.5 and ±8 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA.I.R. mode extending the top end without harshness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh pass filter sweepable from 10 Hz to 400 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEQ section and filter usable independently or together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardwire bypass when switched off or on power loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClip LED triggering at +22 dBu at the output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformer balanced input, That 1646 or Burr Brown output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull recall thanks to rotary switches throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 122 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz to 80 kHz (-3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum input level: +22 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum output level: +23 dBu into 600 Ohm, balanced floating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevel at 1% THD: up to +24 dBu at the output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal to noise ratio at +6 dBu: 105 dB (20 Hz-20 kHz, unweighted, RMS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: -99 dBu (20 Hz-22 kHz, unweighted, RMS) at 0 dB unity gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrosstalk between channels: better than 100 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum output load: 600 Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinear power supply with toroidal transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: max 10 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMains voltage: 115 V or 230 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"VERTIGO SOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54530360869201,"sku":"17001","price":5640.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/VERTIGOSOUNDVSE-2GyratorEqualizer.jpg?v=1786442322"},{"product_id":"vertigo-sound-vsm-2-mix-satellite-full-version","title":"VERTIGO SOUND VSM-2 Mix Satellite Full Version","description":"\u003cdiv lang=\"en\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVertigo Sound VSM-2 Mix Satellite Full Version\u003c\/strong\u003e is a fully analogue mix and mastering processor in a 2U chassis. It combines an MS matrix, two balanced inserts, parallel compression and two independent harmonic generators, replacing a mastering console and separate colouration boxes in one unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eParallel compression and MS without repatching\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou own a stereo compressor, but the material calls for treating centre and sides separately. With Insert 1 switched to MS, the M signal feeds channel A of your compressor and S feeds channel B, and the level of S is compensated, so you never have to chase an extreme threshold setting. The parallel compression control blends the insert return with the original signal, letting you add weight without flattening transients. Insert 2 works the same way and, in MS mode, engages a stereo width control with a zoom around the centre position. AFL solo lets you audition M and S separately at every stage of the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo harmonic generators instead of saturation plugins\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fet Crusher produces pure even harmonics, emulating a Class A valve stage, while the Zener Blender adds third and higher odd harmonics, brightening the material and pulling out detail. Each has its own input filter, so you saturate only the band you want: Low 10-120 Hz, Mid 120 Hz-1.5 kHz, Hi Mid 800 Hz-4 kHz, High 4-20 kHz, Full 120 Hz-20 kHz or Track across the full range. Colouration is routed to LR, M or S, and the Drive, Shape, Level, Mix and Style controls run from subtle thickening to obvious distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMS encoding and decoding across the whole signal path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo balanced XLR inserts switchable to LR, MS or Off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParallel compression on Insert 1 with dry\/wet control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo width control with a zoom around the centre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAFL solo of M and S taken after the output section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFet Crusher: pure second harmonic generator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZener Blender: third and higher odd harmonic generator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix input filter modes for the harmonic generators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColouration routed independently to LR, M or S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft or hard character via the Style switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlobal System hardwire bypass for the entire unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull recall thanks to stepped pots and switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: fully analogue, 2U chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll inputs and outputs electronically balanced and fully floating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 128 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz to 70 kHz (±1 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum output level: +30 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD at +28 dBu: below 0.003%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal to noise ratio at +6 dBu: 104 dB (20 Hz-20 kHz, unweighted, RMS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: -98 dBu (20 Hz-22 kHz, unweighted, RMS) at 0 dB unity gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum output load: 600 Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinear power supply with toroidal transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: max 30 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMains voltage: 115 V or 230 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"VERTIGO SOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54530361524561,"sku":"17003","price":7520.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/VertigoSoundVSM-2MixSatelliteFullVersion1.jpg?v=1786442343"}],"url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/collections\/vertigo-sound.oembed","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
