At the online platform delamar you can find a review about our brand new Monitoring And Recording Controller SPL Marc One. Sven Radig has tested the device and is impressed:
“You can feel the solid construction as soon as you unbox the device. Metal on all sides, also the controls and switches make a robust impression. The Marc One is heavy enough to be placed on the studio desk without slipping and it is still easy to transport.”
Features:
“The crossfeed control for the well-established Phonitor Matrix. Here, SPL tries to simulate the monitoring situation of studio monitors with headphones. The signal of the right stereo channel is mixed with some of the sound of the left channel. This creates a spatial listening experience similar to that of monitor loudspeakers. This way the stereo image can be better located with headphones.”
“The blend control makes recording a real pleasure by providing an always adjustable mix. So I can quickly move my instrument to the foreground or back into the mix.”
Converter:
“The SPL Marc One sounds awesome and the converters deliver impressive sounds.”
“If you read through the specs, it is just jaw-dropping – AD/DA conversion in 32 bit and 768 kHz. Wow!”
“The SPL Marc One offers a resolution which is more than sufficient for a professional recording studio. The monitoring controller is also an option for audiophiles who value high resolution.”
“Connected audio sources sound dynamic and finely resolved. The openness and dynamics of the converters are truly amazing. The full potential of the converters is finally shown in high-resolution audio files. 16 times CD quality is certainly an impressive statement.”
Conclusion:
“Working with the SPL Marc One is intuitive and professional – that means not only the operation of the monitoring and recording controller, but also the range of functions and the flexible switching, mixing and monitoring of the signals. The connection section and built-in components are ideal for the use in professional video and sound studios. The SPL Marc One really stands out in its price range.”
