IC1.1 Insert Computer

The IC1.1 Insert Computer integrates our well-known and proven analog insert consoles circuitry with digital interfacing. The IC1.1 shines best in the most demanding mastering-studios, but easily finds its way in recording-studios.

The IC1.1 offers innovative control options, including an elegant and user-friendly front-panel, as well as compatibility with our VST3/AU plugins using a network connection. This plugin allows you to save, recall, and automate settings. Every function has its own dedicated pushbutton and control encoder, no complex and user-unfriendly menus.

The IC1.1 is supplied with a stereo input, 8 stereo analog inserts and a stereo output. All inputs, outputs and inserts switching employ sealed relays, ensuring a fully passive signal path with no unwanted electronic coloration.

The IC1.1 is fully packed with features like bypassable active gain on the input and output. Furthermore, the output gain can serve as a bypass gain compensation for level-matched AB’ing.  Insert 1 and 2 are fully passive and insert 3 and 4 have swap functionality. Insert 5 and 6 can also be used in mid/side mode with a bypassable width control. Insert 8 can be swapped between post or pre. The encoder control values and the programmable insert name are displayed on the easy to read display.
