Trident AudioA-Range Dual Channel
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Trident’s rackmount A-Range Dual Channel places two A-Range channels in one strip for recording work with microphone and line inputs. Transformer-coupled discrete amplification feeds a four-band equaliser, with faders that make applied boost or cut easy to see. Selectable EQ frequencies, high- and low-pass filter options, stepped input gain, and output level control provide a deliberate, hands-on route from incoming signal to final level.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recording microphone or line-level sources while matching gain in fixed 5 dB steps.
- Sessions that benefit from seeing EQ boost or cut amounts directly on faders.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Engineers accustomed to original A-Range modules mounted sideways, where the rack fader direction may feel reversed.
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
15-position mic/line gain switch
Gain changes in calibrated 5 dB increments for matching microphone or line signals.
Detail 03
Horizontal EQ faders
Move right to boost and left to cut; the centre detent marks zero boost or cut.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01The EQ faders operate horizontally: right boosts and left cuts.
- 02The mic and line gain control is a shared 15-position switch.
Product questions
