Speck ASC-V (Demo Deal)

Manufacturer's description:

The ASC-V is a professional single channel 4-band equalizer in a 5.25” vertical module compatible with API Audio® 500 series rack frames. It is simple... it is useful... and it delivers the high quality and specifications found in all Speck Electronics gear.

This compact 4-band parametric equalizer has 12 controls for equalization adjustment that covers the audio spectrum from a low 25Hz all the way up to 25kHz. To enhance the classic EQ experience, the ASC-V offers both transformer-balanced and active-balanced outputs.


4 Sweepable Bands:

L Band - a low band that sweeps the low frequencies from 25Hz - 400Hz. This band offers a Peak/Shelf select switch.

L/M Band - a switchable low and mid band. This fully parametric section can be switched between a low frequency band that sweeps from 40Hz - 800Hz, or a mid frequency band that sweeps 400Hz - 8kHz. This band has a variable bandwidth adjustment.

M Band - a fully parametric mid band with a frequency sweep range from 400Hz to 10kHz.

H Band - a high band that adjusts the high frequency from 2kHz all the way up to 25kHz. This band also offers a Peak/Shelf select switch.


The Rear Panel:

In addition to the standard rack-friendly edge connector, the ASC-V has a set of 1/4" TRS input/output jacks, and a power input connector. With these I/O connectors and the optional power module, you can ignore the PC edge connector and use the ASC-V as a stand-alone EQ. We even offer a mounting base that will hold a single EQ or a pair of the ASC-V's.

Connect the ASC-V to virtually any line level source; balanced, unbalanced, or mixer inserts. The ASC-V has high headroom that will handle balanced signals up to +28dBu.
