Connecting the VC6Q

CONNECTING YOUR British Channel
The VC6Q can be used in many applications, from recording to live work.
This section will help you get connected as well as explaining the
connections on the VC6Q to help you get the most from your British
Channel.
Sample recording set up
Here, we are using the unit as a replacement front end for a mixing desk/
hard disk recording setup. This configuration may be used for a
performance vocal or instrument source in the studio to get richer sounds
on disk, as well as eliminating and digital delay when monitoring.
Dual outputs, one should
be connected directly to
a recorder, the other may
be used for monitoring.
This removes digital delay when
monitoring a performance.
The insert point may be used to add effects by diverting the line level signal
through and external processor (i.e. reverb unit or amp simulator). This is
better that running an insert point through a mixing desk, as the overall
noise on a signal will be reduced.
This use of the VC6Q will improve the quality of sound recorded by its high
performance mic/instrument amplifier. Also, the compressor will
significantly improve the impact a sound.
Note that the compressor and EQ may be added to a track after it has been
recorded by using the line input from recorder group output plugged into the
line input. Compression can be easily added but never removed from a
signal (expanders are a possibility but a compressed signal will not contain
all the information of the original performance).
