The Drawmer 1977 Channel Strip is the most comprehensive channel strip in the Drawer line up! Go from ultra clean to seriously hot and everything in between.

If you’re looking to add vintage characteristics and analogue musicality to your recordings then look no further than the 1977, the most comprehensive channel strip in the Drawer line up! The 1977 gives you the clarity of an ultra clean preamplifier, the precision of the three band parametric equaliser, the silkiness of the soft knee compressor and added to this the ability to dial in as much warmth as you desire via the 3 types of variable harmonic saturation.

Pristine & Versatile Pre-Amplifier
The pristine preamplifier not only incorporates mic, line and instrument D.I. with 66dB of stepped gain, allowing you to make ultra clean, transparent and precise recordings, sweeten up dull audio or perfect your guitar sound, but also mic matching via switched impedance that brings out the best of every mic in your studio. Whether high-end, ribbon or even your dullest mic you will be able to find it's sweet spot.

Precise Parametric Equaliser with Variable Bandwidth
The 1977 incorporates a true 'parametric' equaliser which takes it’s inspiration from 1970’s-era analogue gear, with three bands of fully variable frequency control and cut and boost of +/-12dB's and, in addition, a fully variable bandwidth control of the mid band, making it incredibly versatile and capable of modifying everything from subtle fine tuning to tone sculpting problematic recordings, and, of course, anything in between.

Switch the Order
The engineer has control over the order of the signal path to operate as either Gain-Equaliser-Compressor-Output or as Gain-Compressor-Equaliser-Output, with each creating a distinctly different tonal quality and coloration.

Silky Smooth vintage Compression
A full featured compressor allows you to control the dynamics of your recordings and our trademark 'Big' and 'Air' modes help to preserve the very deep lows and enhance the sparkling highs that lesser compressor's remove.

Clean, Warm or Overdriven with totally controllable Saturation
The compressor section also incorporates variable harmonic Saturation with a choice of 3 styles, that will allow you to warm up your recordings with complete precision.

Get the correct level first time
The output section includes a wet/dry mix for parallel processing that allows you to easily dial in how much EQ, compression and saturation is used via a single knob, plus an output fade control to either add fade outs or to boost the level to match high end audio interface audio input levels, along with a large backlit VU meter for accurate monitoring. And finally, a Preamp Direct switch that bypasses the EQ, compressor and saturation completely to provide an ultra clean microphone output.

Vintage brought to the modern era
The result of all these features is a modern take on vintage gear that gives you an incredible degree of control over the clarity, tone and warmth of your recordings, helping you to capture perfect audio every time.
