Drawmer MC2.1 Monitor Controller

It is imperative that what you record is exactly what you hear – this philosophy is at the heart of the design of the Drawmer MC2.1 Monitor Controller.

Drawmer MC2.1 Monitor Controller

With the Drawmer MC2.1 Monitor Controller incorporated into your system, you combine the clarity, fidelity, and transparency of the highest quality monitoring circuit with the complexity of a host of mix-checking features. It is versatile and intuitive, but above all else, where the Drawmer MC2.1 excels is in its accuracy and ability to faithfully reproduce what has been recorded.

The Drawmer MC2.1 includes four inputs with three stereo balanced speaker outputs, plus a dedicated mono speaker/sub-woofer output, each with individual left/right trims under the unit to provide complete control over level matching. The active circuit has been designed to faithfully reproduce the audio signal while eliminating many of the problems associated with passive circuits.

Additionally, it boasts a host of mix-checking features not often found on other controllers, such as individual left/right cut, two separate headphone amplifiers, and a talkback facility, making the Drawmer MC2.1 a true engineer’s tool.

Whether you’re mastering a CD/DVD, recording, checking a mix for balance and EQ, doing A/B comparisons, or tackling a multitude of other tasks, the Drawmer MC2.1 ensures that you hear exactly what has been recorded. You’ll have spent weeks designing the perfect studio environment and a fortune on active speakers, dynamics processors, various preamplifier and microphone combinations, and a room full of other gear.

One thing is for sure – a monitor controller is central to every recording setup and probably the most important element of the entire signal chain, providing the ‘reference’ listening signal that enables optimal mic placements, perfect balance, and EQ. One thing should always be absolutely guaranteed—you can rely on the accuracy of your monitor controller.

While being smart and stylish, the rugged enclosure of the MC2.1 will withstand the knocks and bumps of the studio. Coupled with high-quality components, the Drawmer MC2.1 is built to last.

The Drawmer MC2.1 can be rack-mounted using the optional rack kit. The MCB Rack Mounting Kit includes two side panels/ears, a front fascia, and a lead that brings the AUX input from the back of the MC2.1 to the front panel for easy access. The kit also includes the necessary screws, an assembly instruction manual, and an allen key.
