 JOEMEEK

The VC7

The

JOEMEEK

VC7 offers two high performance, 

transformer coupled mic pre amplifiers in a 
single unit, with additional features not found 
on other units.  As well as phase reverse, input 
and output gain, and a switchable Sallen and Key 
high pass filter, the VC7 offers a unique 
microphone impedance matching facility that 
allows the engineer to 'tune' a microphone to 
maximise performance or suit a situation.

The VC7 principle

It's

JOEMEEK

Company theory that 'big' sounds 

are only possible if the recording process keeps 
the response and phase of the lower frequencies 
flat and under control. The 

JOEMEEK

VC7

achieves this by maintaining an extended 
frequency range down below 8Hz (when the 
filter is selected to 'flat'). This ensures that there 
are no sudden phase shifts in the low end.  The 
proof of the theory is that the sound from the 
VC7 is characteristically full bodied and 
rounded in character.  Such extreme LF 
response can often bring its own problems so a 
precision high pass filter with a suitable range of 
frequencies is fitted per channel.

Special Features

The feature that really sets the VC7 apart from 
other custom pre amplifiers is the mic 
impedance matching facility that can be used as 
a precision trim, or an artistic effect.  The VC7 
offers the following options:

source impedances from 250 

ohms up to 600 ohms.

The VC7 also comes equipped with M&S 
outputs that may be used to convert a Left/Right 
signal into middle and side, or, when using an 
M&S microphone, the VC7 will enable you to 
monitor in L/R while recording in M&S.

VC7 History

The

JOEMEEK

VC7  is a development of historic 

tried and tested circuits and designs from the 
1960's to the present day, combined in a dual 
channel outboard rack unit.  It gives accurate 
matching of microphone to amplifier that is not 
possible with other microphone amplifiers. 
This is in addition to its most important feature, 
a characteristically warm yet open sound, that 
can be tuned to match any microphone.   In 
short the VC7 represents the best design 
features of any mic pre amplifier, as well as some 
extended useful features that are unique to this 
model.
