The newΒ Grace Design m103Β is a powerful tracking tool for virtually any recording scenario.
It starts with a tried and true m101 transformer-less microphone preamplifier circuitry. Β Headroom, detail, clarity, musicality β its all there.Β Complete with an exclusive ribbon mic mode, a 75Hz HPF and 48V phantom.
The three-band EQ section is built around single stage parallel tuning architecture, which minimizes circuitry and delivers natural, musical tonal shaping at all frequencies. Β Controls include a fully parametric mid, with shelving and peak modes on the high and low bands.
The compressor circuit is based on an optical attenuator – the purest, high fidelity gain control mechanism available. Β It provides gentle limiting to fairly heavy compression, while remaining nuetral and transparent. Β The perfect way to zip it all up and send it downstream – clean, intact and alive.
Comprehensive I/O options allow the mic pre and EQ/COMP sections to be accessed independently of each other, and the order of the EQ/COMP is switchable. Β The compressor controls can be linked for stereo applications, and 10 segment gain reduction and output meters make monitoring signal status simple.
