RackPack
Introduction
RackPack
The RackPack system allows you to set up a very compact, customized analog rack on only
3 U rack space – equipped with both approved and new SPL specialties providing you one-of-
a-kind processing, highly effective handling and superior audio quality.
RackPack Modules
The Transient Designer opens a new dimension in dynamic processing with its unique
level-independent signal processing. Imitated especially by several software applications,
the original Transient Designer remains the state-of-the-art transient modeler.
The DynaMaxx compressor is incomparably musical and easy to handle. Thanks to its signal-
dependent automation it is the perfect “set’n’forget” compressor for demanding studio and
live applications.
Just as efcient and advanced in quality is SPL’s DeEsser. It has been the rst device of its
kind to use phase cancellation as a means to reduce sibilants. Much more unobtrusive than
the common frequency-based compression, the SPL DeEsser has proven it’s technological
prominence all over the world.
Further highlights are the two preamp modules Preference Mic Pre and Premium Mic Pre. As
an alternative to our tube preamps they are based upon the proven design of our Atmos®
multi-channel recording system. The Premium Mic Pre provides the same triple stage design
with transformer in- and outputs like the Atmos® system, thus ensures the same reference-
class results. The Preference Mic Pre offers a superior price/performance ratio to meet the
highest demands in all areas of miking, and while a continuous preamp quality is of immea-
surable value especially with multichannel recordings, it is impressively economical as well
now with the Preference Mic Pre module.
Further modules complete the RackPack system that includes the whole range of analogue
peripheral equipment and allows for perfect integration into any live and studio environment:
From the passive equalizers Bass Ranger and Vox Ranger, which are specialized to certain
instrument groups, through tube effects to monitoring solutions, the RackPack system builds
a frame to cover the whole set of SPL’s expertise in analog signal processing technology.
Freedom As A Matter Of Principle
Whether you need an eight channel preamp, an effects rack or individual channel strips: The
RackPack-System offers the maximum freedom to compose customized setups for varying
challenges in any live or studio environment.
Internally we have purposely dispensed with a bus system for connections to and between
modules. Instead each module provides balanced XLR in- and outputs, so free routing
between modules is ensured. Furthermore each module can also be integrated into any stu-
dio- or live- environment just like a stand-alone device. And since two outputs are available
simultaneously on each module, you can route from any module additionally while it is con-
nected already to another module (or elsewhere). If you have for example built a RackPack as
a channel strip, you can still pick up a signal from any stage.
Another advantage from the designer’s view is that each module can be equipped with I/O
sockets that perfectly meet the individual module’s requirements, i.e. special sockets for
monitor modules in stereo or multichannel applications.
