TRIO is the one-stop outboard solution for great sounding audio projects: All essential features for recording, analog sound processing, mixing, monitoring and a digital audio interface integrated into a single desktop unit no larger than a laptop’s footprint!
Extended information GREAT SOUND
TRIO™ provides world-class channel strip features with Class A microphone input, Hughes & Kettner® instrument input, 2-band analog Vintage EQ and analog compressor with Adaptive Response™ automatic processing. Much of the design was inspired by the top-of-the-line DTC™ Dual Tube Channel, ensuring that you always get the sound you want – fast. The separate stereo line input has its own dedicated EQ section and controls, and both sources may be recorded simultaneously.
INSTANT ACCESS
TRIO™ has lots of knobs in all the right places – supporting you during the demanding recording and production process. The Zero-Latency-Monitoring section and the big volume knob ensure the right mix at all times. Even the speaker outs and channel strip mute all have their own dedicated controls.
ALL THE CONNECTIONS
TRIO™ connects directly to your computer’s audio interface, either analog or via its integrated optical S/P-DIF or USB interface. And there’s plenty of inputs and outputs for the rest of your gear: MIC/INSTR., LINE, AUX, 2 separate Headphone Outs, a DIRECT OUT, DAW In and Out, 3 Speaker Outputs – and even an analog Insert Send/Return for your trusted guitar or vocal effects processor.
