    Powerful, easy to use, cost-effective - what more do you want?

    This product is increasingly hard to find, but offers exceptional audio processing power for both broadcast and music applications and at a good price. We've bought these units primarily for broadcast voice applications and so cannot comment on their use in music recording or via the line input. However the unit provides what is essentially a complete channel strip consisting (L to R) of the following: A Mic Pre with gain control, a basic 4-LED level indicator, phantom power and 80Hz HPF, plus a button to use the mic pre on its own; A VERY powerful but very easy to use compressor with input level and release controls; A de-esser (which I've never used); An LF/HF enhancer which boosts bass and/or treble without muddying the sound; An expander/gate that lets you remove room background ...

    Great mic processor for home studio use!

    Using it for on air work. The processor’s easy to use and very effective as a compressor limiter. The gating is easy to dial in to remove computer and hvac noise from home use. Separate hi lo EQ is nice and the D Esser will smooth out all the rough edges. Only downside is 1/4 out only. Be nice if it had both XLR in and out but it’s an easy adaptation. Highly recommend!

    A true classic!

    Although you could certainly build a signal chain with a better mic preamp, a better compressor, a better gate/expander, a parametric EQ, etc. you wouldn’t have the same dependable simplicity in a 1 RU unit. The 286A is a classic because it’s easy to get a great sound quickly, and you won’t get bogged down with option paralysis.

    Once you figure it out, it works great.

    A little tricky for a first time user. Instructions weren't great but in the end it produced a great consistent sound. Worth the price.
