WHAT'S IN IT
It's best to think of the JOEMEEK MQ3 as three separate pieces of
equipment:
1) The Input amplifier.
2) The JOEMEEK Compressor.
3) The Meequalizer
THE CurrentSense INPUT AMPLIFIER
The input amplifier takes audio signals from any microphone (XLR socket),
musical instrument or high level source (1/4 inch jack socket), and amplifies
them up to 'line' level; that is, from a few millivolts, up to about a volt. The
phantom power supply (rear panel push-button switch) provides power to
capacitor microphones. Dynamic or ribbon microphones should be used
with the phantom power turned off, then full advantage can be taken of the
extreme low noise performance of this amplifier. The CurrentSense mic pre
amp design, unique to JOEMEEK, allows optimised performance from all
types of microphones, from dynamic, to condenser, to classic ribbon types.
THE JOEMEEK COMPRESSOR
And now for the part of the JOEMEEK MQ3 that gives it character; - the
compressor.
It can pull voices forward, control recording volume levels, help with internal
mix balance, and add 'presence' to your sound.
To get the best use out of the compressor it is necessary to get technical;
so even if you're not technical, read the next bit carefully and get to be a
compressor Guru!
A LIMITER is a device which stops the output of a signal path going above
a predetermined level. It is mainly used to protect amplifiers and recorders
