- Based on the legendary Fairchild 670 compressor and Heritage Audio's HERCHILD 670 model, the GRANDCHILD 670 puts the proven performance of the HERCHILD Model 670 in a cost-effective, two-space 500 series module.
- The module features an attractive front panel complete with a large, informative VU meter that not only provides Gain Reduction metering, but also shows the unit’s 3-position Active/Bypass/Off switch from a distance.
- In common with its big brother, there is an Input Gain control with an adjustable range of 20 dB, the AC Threshold, and 5 selectable Attack/Release times. In addition, the DC Threshold control provides a unique compression curve adjustment combining control of the ratio and knee, soft stepped from hard limiting to a very smooth and transparent, light compression.
- Use the 3-position high-pass Sidechain filter to reduce the lower frequency´s influence on the detection circuit, a must-have feature for contemporary productions.
- The stereo GRANDCHILD 670 uses the sum of the two channels to determine the overall amount of gain reduction for both channels, ensuring a stable stereo image.
- Vacuum tubes in the gain-reduction circuit is at the heart of the specific tonality provided by variable-mu compression.
- Four 6BA6 (5749) tubes and three transformers ensure classic, top-tier analog performance for your mixing and mastering sessions.
- It's not easy to achieve that classic warm, hugging, intimate sound that just seems to effortlessly glue together a mix in a musical way, but the GRANDCHILD 670 delivers it, effectively providing that that lush, classy, and elegant tone.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Could the OTA be mounted on a VersaGO-2 mount?
A: I do not believe we carry the VersaGO-2 mount in our System. My apologies. So I am not familiar with this Mount. However if it's Vixen Style Mount, then it will work.
Q: 2. does this work for Acute 2 systems?
A: This will not work on an Acute 2.
Q: 3. Will this also work with the Cobra 3 monopods?
A: Yes, the iFootage C40 Extension Tube for Cobra 2-Series Monopods will fit the Cobra 3-Series Monopods as well.
Q: 4. Will this product function with wireless Bose headsets from Marshall Amps?
A: No
Q: 5. Does light have +/- green (magenta) adjustment to the white CCT?
A: The CCT in the Dracast X Series LED400 RGBWW Light Tube would control the saturation off green or magneta. The color temperature control would be independent of that.
Q: 6. Is extension tube made of carbon fiber?
A: This tube is made of aluminum.
Q: 7. Does it come with a power supply?
A: Sure does you just need audio cables.
Q: 8. Is there a way to set a password so others can't connect to it?
A: The short answer is no, The unit is a receiver only, and is always ready to pair when not already paired. While DN-200BR is paired with a Bluetooth device, other Bluetooth devices cannot pair to it. You must unpair (disconnect) the current Bluetooth device from DN-200BR to make it available to others. If it is a\already paired, and both devices are always on, nothing else will be able to pair to it.
Q: 9. how many blue tooth devices can be hooked up at once?
A: While the DN-200BR is paired with a Bluetooth device, other Bluetooth devices cannot pair to it. You must un-pair (disconnect) the current Bluetooth device from DN-200BR to make it available to others.
Q: 10. I want to understand pairing with this. Most Bluetooth devices can have multiple devices paired to it and some allow multiple devices to be connected and some only one to be connected. But even the ones that only allow one device to be connected allow multiple to be paired. So, if 1 and 2 are paired, then 2 can't connect while 1 is connected but it can connect as soon as 1 disconnects. If I am reading this correctly only one device can be paired. So for 2 to connect, 1 would have to disconnect and unpair and then 2 would have to pair and connect. Then for 1 to reconnect, 2 would have to disconnect and unpair, 1 would have to pair and then connect. Do I have this correct?
A: You've got it.
