For easy operation, there are several high-quality rotary potentiometers and switches on the front panel for setting the desired values and actions. In addition to the "normal" version of the Track One Mk3, the "Premium" version features Lundahl transformers for the microphone input. The transformer significantly enhances the sound and also provides a gain of up to +14 dB, which must then be added to the scaling! Functions and controls The Track One Mk3 Premium has two separate preamps. One is the microphone preamplifier with 48 V phantom power, which is activated via the 48 V switch, and the other is an instrument preamplifier. Both pre-amps are designed for a sound-neutral, open and transparent characteristic so that no unwanted aspects are added to the input signal. The microphone pre-amplification can be adjusted from up to 63 dB via the gain control, allowing even demanding microphones to reveal their full quality. Line signals can be pre-amplified in a range of -12 dB and +22 dB, and instrument signals in a range of 0 dB and +35 dB. The"Line/Inst" function offers the option of processing line signals, such as an analog signal from an audio interface, with the effects of the Track One Mk3 Premium and then recording them again. Also located in the pre-amp section is a high-pass filter with the ability to reduce impact sound at 6 dB per octave below 80 Hz. In the de-esser section there is an S-reduction control and an "On" switch for switching the filter on and off. The knob can then be used to reduce disturbing S-sounds on vocal tracks as desired. The S frequencies are detected and mixed with the main signal in a phase-inverted manner, whereby the S frequencies are simply deleted from the main signal and can then no longer be heard or are reduced. If an S-sound is detected, a small LED lights up on the right-hand side of the device. This is only active after switching on the de-esser and works independently of the set reduction value. The Track One Mk3 Premium also has a compressor/limiter section as an additional function. To activate this, the "On" switch must first be activated. A threshold value between 0 dB and -20 dB is set via the compression knob, which is then used as the upper limit for the compression. If a level exceeds this value, the...
