14:11 OVERALL SUMMARY OF SETTINGS

The sonically pristine dbx 286s Mic Preamp has all the features you need, including wideranging input gain control, switchable +48V phantom power, and an 80Hz highpass filter to remove low frequency hum, rumble or wind. Use the patented dbx OverEasy compressor to transparently smooth out uneven acoustic tracks or deliver that classic “in your face” vocal performance that only a dbx compressor can. Finetune the Enhancer HF Detail control to add sparkle and crispness to your tracks and make adjustments to the LF Detail control to add fullness and depth to vocals and bass instruments while cleaning up the muddy low midrange frequencies. Plus, the separate threshold and ratio controls on the Expander/Gate allow you to subtly reduce headphone leakage or radically gate noisy guitar amps.

The Model SM7B dynamic microphone has a smooth, flat, widerange frequency response appropriate for music and speech in all professional audio applications. It features excellent shielding against electromagnetic hum generated by computer monitors, neon lights, and other electrical devices. In addition to its standard windscreen, it also includes the A7WS windscreen for closetalk applications.

The SM7B is an outstanding choice for the following applications:
Recording Studio—Instrumental and Vocal
Location Recording
Motion Picture and Television Scoring
Television, Talk Shows, and News Desks
Radio Announcing and Production
Narration
