Lindell Audio presents the 18XS MkII Channel Strip
18XS MkII
The Eighteen Xs MkII is a one channel transformer coupled Microphone Preamplifier, DI, Line Amplifier and Passive Pultec Equalizer. It’s an Class A design based upon our Hybrid amplifiers.
The Equalizer is our take on the magical classic Pultec design. It’s got 15db boost of the creamiest high end you’ve ever heard and the most punchy low end heard the 21th Century.
We have also incorporated our famous ”Mix Knob” from the 17X compressor. This means that you can parallel equalize your line input. This gives you more flexibility and a way of creating new tones….
Up to 65db of gain
Transformer coupled Balanced inputs and Balanced Outputs
High Impedance DI input
Passive Pultec Equalizer. Inductor + Hybrid gain make-up amplifier
”Mix Knob” a dry wet, parallel processing knob where you can blend the dry line input signal with the eq’d output

Some of my mixing/mastering work (pop, reggae, rock, metal)
Can somebody explain to me what a mix knob on an equalizer is for? I mean, other than reducing the amount of boost/cut applied to the signal.
A few EQs do use parallel function as a design element (e.g., Maag, Kush). Phase smearing is a real thing with EQs, and parallel really can get you different tones.
These show up very soon, finally we can answer the question "what's the difference between the 500 and _________ in Lindell?".
War
Planning too grab up a pair of the 17x in black from you as soon as I can Warren. These will sell there self. literely I was running two mk1 17s as bus compression on drums on an hd session a while back. They are stunning. Literally jaw dropping quality for money. Lindell is nipping at the heels of every company.

When I got Pro Tools expert certification it was like joining a gang the only way out was the same way in... in a box.
Sure, no problem. Just buy one for Left channel and one for Right channel.
That was the plan but as mentioned my hearing is not equal, left ear is slightly duller than right ear so having something completely matched is needed.
That is why I sold my Rooster.
What happened to the earlier models made in European Continent?
I am guessing these are now made in China? What changes were made to the parts used or what differences are there between the MKI vs MKII?
