Features
-Auto-Gain prevents performance-wrecking swings in program level when changing sources. The music is never too soft or clipped.
-FlexFX is a post-fader external stereo effects loop with individual Dry/Wet pan controls for Mic and Input Channels 1, 2 and 3.
-Penny & Giles faders are simply the best money can buy. Smooth, accurate and reliable mixing is made possible by employing the most respected name in audio faders.
-Two kinds of fader caps are provided for different mixing preferences: soft rubber caps for smooth mixing, and hard plastic caps for fast mixing.
-Flash-Cue allows the DJ to rapidly select Crossfader A-Cue-sum or Crossfader B-Cue-sum with the flick of a switch, normally slow or complicated on other mixers.
-Multiple Outputs. Nothing is more frustrating than arriving at a club and finding their jacks don't match. Systems may have XLR, TRS or RCA connectors. The Empath provides all three.
-Low and High headphone tone controls allow the DJ to match their mixer to their headphones.
-Both 1/8" and 1/4" headphone jacks are simultaneously usable. More headphones are compatible with the Empath.
-Two assignable CD triggers work with any CD player with fader start ability.
-Accelerated-Slope, full-cut, 3-band tone controls are the most flexible and highest quality available.
-Crossfader assign switches allow any Input Channel to be mixed on the A-side, B-side or Post Crossfader.
-Level meters view Stereo Cue, Stereo Master Mix, Split Cue or Main Output signals.
The Auto-Gain circuit is a built-in 3:1 ratio compressor, keeping your levels consistent. The diagonal black line shows input and output levels equal when the Auto-Gain is disengaged. The red line shows the response of the Auto-Gain circuit, where gain is increased when it's below 0 dB, and decreased when it goes above 0 dB. Once Auto-Gain is activated and the signal reaches -16 dB, gain is increased and held as shown by the blue line (green area).
