The Wheatstone M2 is a dual-channel DSP-based voice processor. The M2 is able to operate in completely independent dual channel mode or, at the touch of a button, M/S mode for professional stereo recording applications.
The M2 microphone processor is equipped with twin, matched Super-Quiet (SQ) microphone preamplifiers featuring extremely low noise floor, very wide dynamic range, faithfully accurate transient response, and ruler flat frequency response. Operating in harmony with high quality 24-bit A/D converters and a 96kHz base sample rate the M2 adds absolutely no undesired coloration to the signal and faithfully preserves the sound of any microphone and talent combination. It features twin high-bandwidth, very low noise microphone preamplifiers, a four-section equalizer with high and low shelving EQ and two bands of fully parametric EQ, high and low pass filters, de-esser and expander functions.
The signal path of the M2 may be operated as a dual channel microphone processor with completely independent channels or as an M/S pair for use in professional high-quality, crossed-microphone M/S recordings. Included in the M2 dual-channel voice processor is Wheatstone's smooth-sounding Vorsis dynamics processing, configurable to up to three bands of processing. Adjustable from anywhere on your network the M2 offers the security of password protected TCP/IP-based remote control and no front panel controls.
