The modern BCM10\/2 MkII introduces routing \u0026amp; monitoring options for use in today’s studios, with multiple configurations to allow any artist, producer and engineer to harness the iconic Neve® sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePremium Front-End\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e80-Series Modules\u003cbr\u003e\nThe BCM10\/2 MkII 80-series module slots can house the classic hand-built 1073®, 1084 preamps or the modern 1073N, each with class A topology and Marinair® Transformers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1073® Preamps\u003cbr\u003e\nAll module options feature the world-famous 1073® preamp, capable of producing up to 80dB of mic gain by layering transistor gain stages on top of each other. This unique design lets you dial in the precise gain levels via the 5dB switch and, if required, drive the preamp to produce subtle harmonic saturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMarinair Transformers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe BCM’s 1073®, 1084, or 1073N modules use exclusive Marinair® specification transformers to balance the microphone input, line input and output stage, helping to create the unique character of this classic console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInductor-Based EQ\u003cbr\u003e\nThe three-band EQ from the 1073®, 1084 or 1073N uses exclusive, hand-wound inductors to produce musical, sound sculpting results. This equaliser, complimented with a choke-coupled high pass filter, gives complete control over the frequency spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSwitchable HPF\u003cbr\u003e\nThe famous 1073 18dB\/octave high pass filter is ideal for cutting out unwanted low frequencies and delivering complete control over the frequency spectrum, with 1084 modules installed, frequency control is enhanced with the addition of a switchable low pass filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1073\/1084 EQ\u003cbr\u003e\nFor those looking for further EQ control, the 1084 modules use the same preamp design as the 1073® but feature an expanded EQ palette with selectable high-frequency bands, low pass filter and mid-band Hi-Q setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eModern Bussing \u0026amp; Connectivity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1252 Module\u003cbr\u003e\nThe new 1952 channel routing module handles channel bussing and routing, featuring modern switching options for current studio needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSwitchable Insert\u003cbr\u003e\nEach channel features a switchable, balanced insert, perfect for connecting to a patch bay or directly into outboard processors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDirect Outputs\u003cbr\u003e\nFor tracking or stem mixing, each channel has a direct output with up to +10dB in hand, switchable to pre or post the insert point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDual-Path Mixing\u003cbr\u003e\nOne of the modern additions to the classic BCM is the simple input feature. This additional transformer-balanced line input transforms the console into an in-line mixer and doubles the consoles channel count when mixing large sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAux \u0026amp; Cue Sends\u003cbr\u003e\nThe modern BCM10\/2 Mk II busing system expands upon the capabilities of the original console with four mono pre\/post fader aux sends and a stereo cue send, perfect for connecting to outboard FX and performer headphone systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eP\u0026amp;G; Faders\u003cbr\u003e\nSmooth action P\u0026amp;G; faders complimented with 7-stage LED metering deliver a precise visual overview of levels when tracking or mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClass-A Topology\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVoltage Mixing\u003cbr\u003e\nThe BCM10\/2 MkII uses voltage mixing across its mix busses; this classic architecture reduces the mix bus gain to be reamplified through the 1272’s to line level. This process creates a ‘pleasant analogue hue compared to modern, transparent, current mixing and forms part of the BCM’s unique sonic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1272 Modules\u003cbr\u003e\nThe classic Neve® 1272 line amplifier modules have been given new life in the modern BCM10 console. Every 1272 works across its associated mix bus to reamplify the signal similarly to vintage Neve preamps, boosting it through Marinair Transformers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClass A Discrete\u003cbr\u003e\nThe modern BCM 10\/2 MkII uses class-A discrete architecture throughout.
