Behringer MDX4600 Multicom Pro XL

Full Description

4 Channel Dynamic Controls

The Multicom MDX4600 is a powerful 4 channel dynamic effects unit which acts as an expander, gate, compressor and peak limiter offer professional results with transparent noise suppression. Furthermore the MDX4600 also ensures that they is no loss in audio quality by retaining high frequencies and enhancing vocal presence and energy whilst smoothing extremely high audio peaks. With additional features such as the integrated dynamic enhancer, de-esser and low contour filter the Behringer MDX4600 is an essential outboard processor for any home or project studio.

Compact Size & Versatile Connectivity

Requiring only a single rackspace the Behringer MDX4600 offers impressive results normally only achieved with multiple outboard effect units. With front mounted 8-segment LED indicators you can monitor your input level from the provided XLR/TRS inputs whilst also monitoring your output level. The Behringer MDX4600 also features side chain in/out connectivity to directly integrate into a range of studio set ups.

Features

• Switchable IKA (Interactive Knee Adaptation) compression circuitry combines hard-knee and soft-knee characteristics
• IRC (Interactive Ratio Control) expander/gate circuitry for virtually inaudible noise suppression
• Switchable dynamic Enhancer for brilliant, lively audio even with heavy compression
• IGC (Interactive Gain Control) peak limiting circuitry combines clipper and program limiter
• Switchable low contour filter prevents "pumping" due to low-frequency dominated compression
• Stereo couple function selectable for channels 1/2 and 3/4
• Separate 8-segment LED meters for input/output levels and gain reduction
• Selectable operating level (+4 dBu/-10 dBV)
• Servo-balanced inputs and outputs with 1/4" TRS and gold-plated XLR connectors
• Conceived and designed by BEHRINGER Germany
