Product Description
- Sculpt with parametric and new graphic EQs The Universal Audio API Vision Channel Strip brings you the power to sculpt your audio with precision and versatility. With the click of a button you can choose between two legendary EQ options - the revered 550L 4-band parametric EQ and the famous 560L series 10-band graphic EQ from API. Whether you need to sweeten and shape guitars add aggression to drums or push vocals forward with analog punch this channel strip has you covered. The new 560L EQ emulation accurately captures the complex band interactions and musical filter amp distortions of APIs renowned hardware delivering a transparent low-end ultra-tight imaging and that classic API sound. The 212L preamp with unison technology With the Universal Audio API Vision Channel Strip Collection paired with Apollo interfaces you get an even more magical experience thanks to Unison mic preamp technology. Unison technology allows you to access all the essential impedance gain stage "sweet spots" and circuit behaviours of APIs iconic 212L preamp.
