Studiomaster Vms Vocal Management System

Product details

Have you ever wished you had that "recorded sound", in a "live" environment. Do you want to get rid of that "PA" sound to your live performance. If so, the Studiomaster VMS is the answer. To say it is a simple mic preamp is an understatement, it is simple and it is a preamp, but the sound that you get out of it is fantastic.

On the Stadium touring circuit the sound companies will also employ similar tools to support the singer. At the more modest end of the industry, a singer will have a microphone, mixer, amplifier and speakers. Adequate maybe, but using these alone is a far cry from the polished performance found on albums and heard in large concerts - Until now!

The VMS turns off the mic when not in use, evens out the volume of your voice (reducing the loud but increasing the soft parts), adds world class vocal effects and a set of intuitive tone controls. Until now you would have needed a rack full of signal processing equipment that requires expert setting up to achieve the results the VMS will give you. Totally unique, the VMS is neatly packed into a 1U rack mount (or free standing) package making it very portable. So, although simple to use, the VMS is packed with state of the art audio signal processing electronics, to enhance your vocal talent.

Features

• Compressor / Limiter
• Noise gate
• Graphic Equaliser
• Use-able Effects
• 19" rack mount, 1U high

The mic inputs take either 1/4" jack or XLR 3pin or Cannon input. 48v phantom power can be switched on the rear of the unit. There is a 5 position rotary switch to set the gain level of the compressor, then a bypass switch to turn the unit out of circuit. There is a switchable noise gate, this is very useful in very noisy environments and stops the mic from amplifying anything below a preset level.

After the compressor display, there is a 7 band graphic equaliser, and 6 useable effects, footswitchable, plus a DSP effects level control.

Output on the rear is via XLR or jack, balanced, switched.

The VMS was designed in conjunction with Studiomaster and Stephen Court, the man behind Pink Floyd's live sound..nuff said!
