ART Pro Channel Features
The Pro Channel from ART is the latest offering from the world’s most popular tube dynamics processing manufacturer. ART engineers have combined the world-renowned Pro MPA, Pro VLA, and Tube EQ into a single product – creating the world’s best-sounding and most affordable professional recording channel.

The Pro Channel features many new and exciting design enhancements to ART’s pro and home studio staples, including the addition of a tube circuit to the compressor module. The Pro Channel allows you to select between ART’s award winning optical/tube compressor or the coveted tube circuit (a design made popular by the sound of the old broadcast limiters – now costing thousands of dollars). The tube circuit is fast, fat and a bit aggressive, and is guaranteed to become a legend among compressors as has the Pro VLA. The four-band parametric equalizer has selectable Q for the two sweepable mid-bands. As with all design elements of the Pro Channel, these Q options were fine-tuned by some of the industry’s top studio and live-sound engineers. Likewise, all new additions were made without compromise to the sound of the original designs (Pro MPA, Pro VLA, Tube EQ), which have become standards in professional studios and FOH rigs around the globe.

The Pro Channel defines the term “channel strip.” The Pro Channel is an impressive package from the world-wide leaders in tube dynamics signal-processing gear. Pick one up and catch your own tube-buzz at your favorite ART dealer today.

    ART Pro Channel April 12, 2006
    Reviewer: http://soundsgroovy.com from a very hot and dry place...  
    This piece just begs you to experiment with it!
    My recording rack has 2 of these in it, and I'm using them to record bass and snare drum, vocals, and guitars. I find them to be very versatile, clean and toneful. They have tons of gain, and have 3 tubes in them for the mic pre, compressor, and EQ sections. I swapped these tubes out in mine with 12AT7's to make them sound a little cleaner and better to my ears,  and this is an easy mod. I especially like the variable-mu compressor settings and find that they can be very transparent or aggresive-sounding, while still sounding very musical. It's nice that the Pro Channel has two types of compressor circuits to tweak.
    You can get the mic pre to be very clean or give a raspy distortion if that's what you're after, too.
    All in all, I'm glad that I have a pair of these ART Pro Channels and would recommend them to anyone to try out.
    Plus, they do work very well for recording bass guitar direct!
