Overview

Audioarts MG-1 One Channel Digital Mic/Voice Processor

The MG-1 features the same circuit as the M-1, but without the front panel knobs and switches. All control is handled via the M-1 GUI. This reduces costs and can save trips to the rack room. The back panels of the M-1 and MG-1 are virtually identical making it easy to swap out one for the other if desired.

Wheatstone-designed Dynamics Control

A high performance de-esser and a smooth sounding, very low distortion compressor/limiter dynamics control section round out the M-1’s offerings to create powerful and authoritative presence on production or on-air microphones.

Wheatstone-designed Equalization

Very high quality parametric and shelving equalization is available to sweeten the sound of any microphone as desired without adding noise or undesirable artifacts to the signal.

Wheatstone Processing Presets

A variety of ready-to-use factory processing presets are provided, carefully tailored for different processing goals and formats. You can select a factory preset, confident that it will sound great just as it is. Or use a factory preset as a starting point and create a custom sound for each announcer, then save the new settings as a personalized user preset. In a facility with multiple microphone processors, presets saved in one unit can be easily copied to the others.
