Prism Sound Atlas Recording Interface
Atlas is a USB multichannel interface aimed at multi-tracking applications featuring eight of the high-grade mic preamps found on Orpheus, Lyra and Titan. The later models including Lyra, Titan and Atlas feature a 20dB pad on each mic channel to accommodate high sound pressure level (SPL) applications such as drums or close miked guitars or brass.
Our low noise, low distortion, extremely neutral mic pre design has gained a cult popularity amongst existing Prism Sound users and we are pleased to be able to offer a single box solution for producers, artists and engineers demanding high quality front end and with the added benefits of Prism Sound A/D and D/A conversion.
Atlas Mic Preamps
- Digitally controlled gain, fully balanced analogue signal path
- 55dB of gain in 1dB steps
- Incredibly transparent:
- 0.00016% THD (+10dB gain: -116db @ -0.1dBFS)
- 0.00040% THD+N (+10dB gain: -108dB @ -0.1dBFS)
- ±0.05 gain accuracy
- Switchable phantom power, 20dB pad, Overkiller soft limiter, phase, high-pass and RIAA filter on all mic inputs
- Mid and Side encoder on all mic input pairs.
