• Rugged Metal Construction
• High Precision Volume Knob
• Distortionless Passive Attenuation Circuitry

TURN UP THE VOLUME

Mixing rooms commonly have multiple sets of monitors. This allows you to hear how a mix translates to different speakers. As an example, a sound engineer can have a pair of high-precision reference monitors and another lower-quality audio reference to check the consumer listening experience. In this case, a high-quality monitor controller is a problem solver. The MC-1 2x2 stereo passive monitor controller from RCF is completely silent, has no colorations, and is inherently transparent from distortions. Compatible with both professional and consumer audio equipment.

MONITORING STATION

The generous machined metal main rotary controller precisely adjusts the volume level. The DIM switch attenuates the level of 20dBs. The MONO key creates a mono listening of your program to verify the correct phase management of your mix. The MUTE button obviously mutes the program signal. With its elegant and ergonomic look, RCF MC-1 completes the simplified setup in your studio and gives advanced functionality to your listening environment.

FLEXIBLE CONTROLLER

With its comprehensive input connectors, including a pair of Combo XLR/TRS inputs, a pair of balanced TRS jack inputs, and a stereo 3,5 mini-jack connector, MC-1 allows connecting any type of audio source, professional or consumer. Perfect for Recording Facilities, Home Studios, or Entertainment Rooms. The stereo XLR output provides the connection for two stereo speaker pairs. RCF MC-1 easily manages the selection between audio sources and monitors just pressing the dedicated INPUTs and MONITORs switches, comparing A/B.

NO BIT LOSS

The main benefit of passive volume attenuation is that you no longer have to control volumes in your Digital Audio Workstation. Reducing audio levels digitally only reduces the bit depth, degrading the overall signal quality. Keep your software main/master levels at unity-gain and passively attenuate the analog signal to your monitoring section. Pure, simply transparent signal control.
