Great Pres and Large-format Console Functionality for DAWs!

The UA DCS Remote Preamp is designed to bridge the gap of the analog console and the digital DAW. By pairing many of the essential features of the talkback section of a console with a pair of ultra-clean mic pres, Universal Audio has created the ultimate accessory for modern DAW users that miss the good old days of large format consoles. The DCS Remote Preamp was created through a partnership with original Euphonix founders Scott and Rob Silfvast to design a revolutionary series of DAW “expansion & enhancement” products under the Desktop Console System (DCS) family brand. DCS combines UA’s pedigree for sonic excellence with the usability/features of professional consoles in a new type of convenient “micro-console” desktop form factor, ideal for today’s project/producer studios.

Universal Audio DCS Remote Preamp At-a-Glance:

• Console-grade Preamps
  
• Enhanced features for monitoring

Console-grade Preamps
The DCS Remote Preamp combines two console-grade mic-pres, specialized monitoring capabilities for artist & engineer, and easy remote control/DAW integration making an ideal upgrade to the basic features/sonics found in most audio interfaces. With 100% digital control of analog, the Remote Preamp offers fully remote-controllable, highly detailed, uncolored recording based on its advanced transimpedance design. The two channels of the DCS Remote Preamp can be used dual mono or can be joined for stepped, matched-stereo gain structuring. Plus a Mid/Side decoder is included, allowing for direct monitoring of the M/S result while recording.

Enhanced features for monitoring
The Remote Pre also features a high-quality headphone amp with “monitoring only” effects such as user-tailored reverb and EQ, making it easy to quickly create an artist monitor mix without having to deal with complex configuration or latency issues inside the DAW. Best of all, the remote control can be placed anywhere from desktop to recording room, giving the artist flexibility unlike any other device in its class. Position the preamp as close to the source as desired, or remotely control your own recording experience away from the computer as you keep the remote close at hand. Lastly, the DCS Remote Preamp offers high quality backlit VU metering for observing Preamp Output or DAW/Cue levels.
