The Symetrix 308 VCA is a vintage, 1U rack-mount analog processor designed for professional sound systems, providing remote volume control and automatic "loudness" EQ. It uses dual voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCAs) for stereo or dual-mono operation, with loudness compensation that boosts bass/treble at lower volumes. GearSource +3Usage Examples & Features:

  • Remote Volume Control: Allows volume adjustment via standard linear potentiometers up to 500 feet away.
  • Engineered Sound Systems: Ideal for sound reinforcement, background music, or paging systems needing wall-panel control.
  • Automatic Loudness EQ: When the volume is lowered, the unit automatically reduces midrange frequencies by up to 15 dB at 1 kHz, providing a "loudness" compensation effect.
  • System Integration: Operates at unity gain when set to full

  • No power supply or volume pot is included
