!WOW! Buzz Audio ARc 1.1 !WOW!

WOW!
I just checked out my new Pair of Buzz Audio ARC 1.1!
WOW!
This units rawk like all of Tim Farrants products!

The build, look, feel and sound is top notche! This is highend gear how it should be!

The pre alone is ultra nice!
Clear, quick, detailed and fat like a mother! The imendance switche could variate the fat allready.
The low shelf on the eq is realy nice and big, but keeps on the tight side of fatness.
The high shelf could add air, sparkel and if you want a pitbulls bite! So you could just add a bit of sheen to the top of your vocal recording or add a major dominant bite on a snare!
The parametric "mids" are very nice too and make this unit very versatile.
All of the bands could be switched into the signal chain, into the compressors side chain or to the external IO (ther are IOs for the pre/line in, the eq, the comp and the main outs. compressor link and S/C insert).
The Opto compressor realy shines on vocals! It's that "Sounds like a record" thing. It is very obvious whan you squeez the vocals hard, but obvious in a good way! RAWK!

I only could advice you to get ad least a pair of ARCs! Buying a SOC doesn't hurt either.

If you want your first and maybe only recording channel get a Buzz Audio ARC.
If you want a analog mastering chain get a pair of ARCs!
Realy this units are a bargain in any and every way you could imagine!
