    AKDG8DP - Overview

    The Merging Technologies AKDG8DP is a remotely controlled Mic/Line input card. It is a 3rd generation Dual Gain topology design, taking inspiration from the outstanding Anubis Preamps, showing zero tolerance to any compromise on the audio quality.

    This card is a new benchmark in analog circuit design, and provides additionally a Line level post Mic-pre "Direct Out" output.

    • Features:

      • 8x exceptionally transparent, Swiss designed pre-amplifiers
      • Remote/Local switch to Line Level on a per channel basis
      • Completely accessible remotely for all parameter changes
      • Phantom Power/Polarity Invert/Low Cut/Impedance switchable per channel
      • Removes the need for DI boxes
      • Allows build-in Mic splitting variants
      • Dynamic range of 136dB (A-weighted, typ)
      • Auto-mute circuitry for "no-pop" power cycling
