This Might be The Dream Vocal Channel Strip - SPL Channel One Mk3

[@NC17z]

I really enjoyed this video. I wish every audio company out there would ask you to review their products. This was done very, very well. Real world application. Just love it. Thank you for posting!

[@DomSigalas]

This looks really tasty Chris! Great job bro! 👊

[@mixdownonline]

Thanks bro! 🙏

[@QuaverloveStudio]

It's a really true sounding channel strip. I also want one "next to me".

[@R1PPA-C]

I love spl, both for their build quality, beautiful analogue sound and aesthetics. I have an SPL crimson and it's built like a tank, I can't bring my self to let go of it even though I want to go rack mount.

[@mixdownonline]

Yes, the SPL gear built is pretty solid

2 boys having fun with their toys. Great unit and great review Chris!

[@mixdownonline]

Lol, that's pretty much it! Thanks, bro!

[@Julio3dc]

“Whit the singer I have” hahahaha 😂 that made my day

[@mixdownonline]

🤣 Glad it did!

[@ohstudiousa]

I think the idea of having the writing on the back of the unit upside down so you can read it looking down at it is cool. Fun video brother!

[@mixdownonline]

You're right...They though of everything!

[@danielkang7789]

You would want the ‘track one mk3’ instead if you’re tracking/mixing vocals the most. ‘channel 1 mk3’ is definitely for the larger range when mixing unless you’re running through this unit while recording some drums etc.

[@richardgordon9939]

how does it compare to the Avalon VT-737SP??

[@alphasupreme7167]

amazing product which one would is better Neve newton channel or SPL channel one mk3?

[@pastilance1]

Pretty!

[@willierice2461]

Nice!

[@mixdownonline]

Thanks!

[@DaveChips]

Is there anything from SPL like AIO mastering box... Like Fusion or MBT...? Would be amazing to hear this in stereo pair (although might be a bit expensive) 😅

[@PharaohLawLess1]

Would love to compare that unit to my Avalon vt737sp 🤔

[@mixdownonline]

Never worked with the Avalon, but heard good things about it. It would be a good comparison

[@procrasti-nation9517]

Thx, I've been looking forward to this review. I will definitly try to get my hands on one of this by the end of the year. I know I am a terrible singer, but thats what my vocals are worth to me 😁The only thing I might wonder is, if the tube saturation gives enough "drive" to distort/saturate metal-vocals/shouting properly, or else I do have to put a FET in front of it? Because this is something I absolutly wanna do analog by hardware not plugin!!!

[@mixdownonline]

You can drive it pretty hard...If you Drive it POST, you can adjust the Input level, and then the make up gain of the compressor to give more Drive

[@procrasti-nation9517]

@@mixdownonline Okay, thx! SPL usually makes quality stuff. so I have something to save for. 😉

[@LuiCardenasphotography]

Great review as always, amazed by the de-esser. but man, those lyrics are gold hehe.

[@mixdownonline]

The De-esser is just awesome! Glad you like those lyrics LOL!

[@Alanlevi28]

Awesome i want a plugin version😂

[@mixdownonline]

That would be cool!

[@tibhorvath]

Yeah awesome if you have a spare 4K lying around! 😒

[@mixdownonline]

It's actually 2.3K usd, but yes, not for all budgets

[@tibhorvath]

Not in Australia! 😢

[@mixdownonline]

@@tibhorvath You're like us in Canada 😕

[@mainsailsound983]

Great gear and all but that kind of stuff is just so wildly overpriced

[@zeitakulobusta]

You have any idea what r&d, manufacturing etc etc plus wages on this level of quality and detail costs?

[@siriosstar4789]

@main,,, "wildly overpriced " ?😂 sorry man but you are clueless . It's made IN germany where labor costs are extremely high . the costs include partial payment of healthcare , worker safety laws and massive taxes . Considering the quality of materials and the amount of hand work involved , it's amazing they are able to sell their products at such a low price . You sound like you're from America where it's price first and workers and quality second . Also consider that They cater mostly to professional sound engineers/ recording g studios that can deduct some of the cost of their equipment as 'tools ' necessary for the job .

[@Studio22mix]

SPL is a no brainer company imo 😊 I never had any gear from them that I didn’t like. Their 120V rail technology is really nice. I couldn’t mix drums without their transient designer and I love the vitaliser on my mix-bus, it’s always on. 👌🏼😀

[@mixdownonline]

I agree, SPL never disappoints

[@Studio22mix]

@@mixdownonline To be honest I’m not a big fan of channel strips but if I was a vocalist I would definitely get myself a nice channel strip, especially for performing live. Would be nice if you could do a review of a Drawmer channel strip if you ever have the opportunity 😊

[@Bashanvibe]

This might be the only thing I need to have for my rack set up 😎

[@claudius3124]

and great sense of humour, and excellent voice, by the way,,,, ;-)

[@Studio22mix]

I agree, very good voice considering that I don’t like 90% of most vocalists out there 😅

[@tgholz1]

I wish they gave this their 120V Tech

[@claudius3124]

You guys rock!!! Great combi, nice & friendly, you two guys make, said Yoda! ;-) lol!

[@mixdownonline]

Lol! Thanks!

"air" is short for: "out of the mix" 😆😆
