The remarkably intuitive front panel combines musical and forgiving circuitry that allows the musician to concentrate on his performance instead of being lost in a sea of knobs. Ease of use and intelligently chosen operating points make it virtually impossible to cut a bad sounding track!<\/p>\n<p>Manley\u2019s experience and insight working with the industry\u2019s top recording engineers and musicians culminates in the CORE. At this price, there is no other channel-strip with higher headroom or more seductive sound than the CORE. Handcrafted in the USA, built like a tank, built to endure, the epicenter of your recorded art will be the Manley CORE.<\/p>\n<p>Features and Specifications<\/p>\n<p>ALL-TUBE preamplifier audio path using 1 x 12AX7WA for gain and 1 x 6922 White Follower<br \/>\nBalanced Transformer Coupled XLR Microphone Input Impedance: 1250 Ohms<br \/>\nBalanced XLR Line Input Impedance: 10 kOhms<br \/>\nUnbalanced 1\/4&#8243;\u00bb Direct Input Impedance: 10 Meg Ohm<br \/>\nHi-current drive Direct Output Impedance: 50 Ohms<br \/>\nSilent conductive plastic INPUT attenuator<br \/>\nCompressor Maximum GAIN REDUCTION: 16 dB<br \/>\nCompressor ATTACK time:<br \/>\n150 ms slowest CCW to 14 ms fastest CW for 6dB compression<br \/>\nCompressor RELEASE time:<br \/>\n150 ms slowest CCW to 2.63 ms fastest CW from 6dB compression<br \/>\nLimiter ATTACK time: 115\u03bcs<br \/>\nLimiter RELEASE time:<br \/>\n300 ms slowest CCW, 150 ms at 12:00, 2.3 ms fastest CW<br \/>\nMaximum Input Mic input (Low Gain Setting): -5 dBu or 435mV RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Mic input (High Gain Setting): -25 dBu or 44mV RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Line input (Low Gain Setting): +13 dBu or 3.5V RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Line input (High Gain Setting): -8 dBu or 300mV RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Direct input (Low Gain Setting): +24 dBu or 12V RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Direct input (High Gain Setting): +17 dBu or 5.5V RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Input Insert return: +20 dBu or 7.8V RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Preamp Output (Insert Send): +35 dBu or 43V RMS @ 0.5% THD<br \/>\nMaximum Main Output: +20 dBu<br \/>\nInsert Send output impedance: 50 Ohms<br \/>\nInsert Return input impedance: 13 kOhms<br \/>\nMain Output Impedance: 50 Ohms<br \/>\nDirect Output Headroom (referenced to +4 dBv): 31 dB<br \/>\nMain Output Headroom (referenced to +4 dBv): 16 dB<br \/>\nDynamic Range: &gt;90 dB<br \/>\nFrequency Response: 10 Hz to 20 kHz \u00b10.5 dB<br \/>\nLarge LED illuminated VU METER<br \/>\nMeters switch to read Direct Output (1) from preamp, Output (2) from Main Out, or Compressor Gain Reduction<br \/>\nTHD &amp; Noise (1kHz @ +4 dBm): 0.02% at Low Gain setting<br \/>\nNoise Floor (Gain set to minimum): -70 dB wideband typical<br \/>\nGain via Microphone Input: 40 or 60 dB<br \/>\nGain via Line Input: 20 or 40dB<br \/>\nMaximum Gain of EQ &amp; Limiter section: 10 dB<br \/>\nAUTOMUTE warmup delay: 30 seconds<br \/>\nPower consumption: 35 Watts<br \/>\nOperating mains voltage: 90 to 254 VAC (internal universal supply)<br \/>\nMains Voltage Frequency: 50~60Hz<br \/>\nDimensions: 19 x 3 1\/2 x 7 (occupies 2u)<br \/>\nUnit weight: 8 lbs.<br \/>\nShipping weight: __ lbs. \u00ab<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building upon its 25-year legacy producing revered recording studio equipment<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12349,"template":"","meta":[],"pwb-brand":[149],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1029],"product_tag":[560],"class_list":["post-6954","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","pwb-brand-manley","product_cat-preamplificadores-y-canales","product_tag-manley","first","onbackorder","sale","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"brands":[{"id":149,"name":"MANLEY","slug":"manley"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/6954","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12349"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6954"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"pwb-brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pwb-brand?post=6954"},{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=6954"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=6954"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=6954"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
