FUN!

Neat 'lil unit here ... 2 channels of solid pre-amp (or DI) with OPTICAL compression and a small but colorful EQ ... Even has dedicated insert points on the back for each channel like a real console channel ...

The pre-amp and compression are really the stars on this guy - I recently plugged a bass into the DI to quickly track some demo/ideas and was blown away with how good it sounded, honestly thought it sounded better than the REDDI box sitting near by ... hit the compression quite hard and dialed down the highs and upped the lows ... it just made everything sound even and buttery ... crazy ...

This is the early version that you want - not the later 2000s with the darker green face (those were manufactured after Joe Meek was acquired by a less than desirable pro-sumer brand) ... Some normal rack-rash on top but otherwise super clean!

Should have some manuals to go with this ...

THE JOEMEEK Dual Studio/Voice Channel 'TwinQ'
As with all other Joemeek products the JOEMEEK 'TwinQ' is a development of historic tried and tested circuits and designs from the 1960's to the present day, combined in a single outboard rack unit by acknowledged leaders in analogue technology.

WHAT IT IS AND WHY:
The 'TwinQ' is a professional quality dual channel microphone/line or instrument amplifier. In addition it has built-in compressor-limiters and equalizers. It can operate both as two separate channels with widely differing settings, or as a stereo pair for stereo microphones and instruments, or even as a 'final mix' stereo compressor and 'sweetener'. It also has the facility of 'retro-fitting a dual channel digital output stage(Joemeek VC1QD). As with other Joemeek preamplifiers, the 'TwinQ' produces a full, professional and warmest possible sound in preparation for mixing and recording in digital formats. Recordings made using inferior preamplifiers may sound acceptable during recording, but the resulting 'thin' and 'muddled' sound after mixing can never be processed out: Great sounding recordings are only possible with good input and best possible treatment at the pre-amp stage.
