It exists to take a source from XLR to a finished, print-ready sound in a single pass, rather than farming preamp, EQ, and dynamics out to three separate boxes. The signal path runs fully on triode gain stages, so there is no solid-state amplification between input and output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the compression section apart is that it houses two distinct circuits that can work independently or together: an optical stage built around an LED-and-photoresistor detector for a gentler, program-dependent squeeze, and a vari-mu tube stage that drives the triodes themselves into compression for a denser, more aggressive result. Running both at once lets an engineer stack a soft opto pass under a firmer tube pass on the same source. The EQ section is a passive Pultec-style network with selectable low-cut, low-shelf boost, a sweepable midrange dip, and a high-shelf that extends up to 24 kHz, and it can be patched before the compressors, after them, or into the sidechain for frequency-selective gain reduction. On the input side, the mic path uses its own transformer with switchable impedance, a separate transformer handles line-level signals, and a 100 kOhm front-panel jack takes instruments directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"background:#f3f3f3;border-left:4px solid #111111;padding:8px 12px;font-size:18px;line-height:1.3;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;margin:28px 0 14px;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 4px;padding-left:22px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGeneral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTube device (3 Triodes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass-A circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStepped Potentiometers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransformer balanced inputs and output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInternal power supply with toroidal transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeight: 132mm (3U), width: 483 mm, depth: 250mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrophone Preamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrophone preamp with transformer \/ 48V \/ Phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrue 48V phantom power\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePhase switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-impedance instrument input(100 kΩhm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharacter changeable from clean to fat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEqualizer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-cut: 80-160 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-mid boost: 80-120-200-300-500-700-1000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMid-cut: 200-300-500-700 Hz 1-1,5-2-3-4-5-7 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh boost: 1,5-2-3-4-5-7-10-12-16-20-24 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpto compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVari-Tube compressor (vari-µ)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft-Knee\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgram-adaptive attack and release timing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"background:#f3f3f3;border-left:4px solid #111111;padding:8px 12px;font-size:18px;line-height:1.3;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;margin:28px 0 14px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 4px;padding-left:22px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: 20 Hz–40 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum Mic Input Level: +12 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum Line Input Level: +20 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum Instrument Input Level: +6 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLine Input Impedance: ≥ 2.4kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstrument Input Impedance: = 100kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: \u0026lt; 600 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum Output Level: +24 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDynamic Range: = 95 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVoltage: 230 V~\/50 Hz or 115 V~\/60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuse: 500 mA slow-blow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum Power Consumption: \u0026lt; 25 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensions: 3 U, H:132 mm, W:483 mm, D:250 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tegeler Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51335633567967,"sku":"TGL-0001","price":244385.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/6801\/4303\/files\/Tegeler-Audio-Vari-Tube-Recording-Channel-VTRC-PIG-01.jpg?v=1788606246","url":"https:\/\/proaudiogear.in\/products\/tegeler-audio-vari-tube-recording-channel-vtrc","provider":"proaudiogear.in","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
