Inspired by the success of the 9098i, the no compromise design of the CIB combines Mic Pre-Amp, Line Amplifier, Hi and Lo Pass Filters, 4 Band Equaliser and Classically Inspired Compressor, all carefully designed into a 1U-rack space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMic Input \u003cbr\u003eThe Mic Input is a TLA (Transformer-Like Amplifier).

Compression ratio up to 40:1 is provided, virtually a limiter but without the aggressive sound of a limiter. When the 'Link' button is enabled, identical gain reduction can take place when two or more CIBs are linked together.

There has been growing realisation that, in spite of the sonic limitations of digital sound processing, a very high quality analogue signal path at the input will reflect throughout the whole audio chain and go a long way to satisfy the professional sound engineer. With careful attention to the interfaces the character of the input signal can be preserved throughout the entire system.

The DMCL comprises of two identical, closely matched Microphone and Line  amplifiers followed by a high resolution Compressor-Limiter with  pre\/post High and Low Pass Filters. The Microphone Amplifier makes use  of “TLA” techniques which provide many of the advantages of a  transformer without the penalty of weight and cost.

Because of the  increasing use of outboard equipment in the Control Room, I have added a  balanced “INSTRUMENT” input to each of the Microphone Amplifiers. These  are accessible by a ¼ stereo jack on the front panel and have a very  high input impedance, 2.2 Megohms. “The Compressor is an all analogue  design which musically emulates the best of my past designs and includes  a control of the “knee” shape ranging from “HARD” to a very gentle  transition which I have called “\u0026amp;MM” (and Much More!) the  description a friend gave it!”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449588150375,"sku":"35521","price":1895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/used_35521_1_0ed0a0cd-e04e-4e6d-a3db-34f71f4fe41e.jpg?v=1787089586"},{"product_id":"amek-system-9098-mic-pre-011925-used","title":"Amek System 9098 Mic Pre #C006908 (Used)","description":"Clean example of this unit.

The trend to higher digital resolution makes it even more important that we focus carefully on the integrity of signals fed to the input.","brand":"Amek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450069676135,"sku":"72154","price":1895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/amek-pure-path-channel-in-a-box-c007238-used-7222355_e0b7eb26-e69c-48cd-8203-3a96e322f067.jpg?v=1787091565"},{"product_id":"amek-pure-path-channel-in-a-box-c007811-used","title":"Amek Pure Path Channel In A Box #C007811 (Used)","description":"\"The \u003cstrong\u003eAmek Channel in a Box \u003c\/strong\u003e(CIB) is essentially the input channel of a very high caliber \"In-Line\" console contained in a 1U rack mounted assembly and complete with its own power supply.
