The MONICON M is a compact passive volume controller for flexible studio set-ups. It can be easily connected to audio interfaces, computers, or mobile devices, either via balanced XLR/TRS combo sockets or a 3.5 mm jack input. The output, which is either balanced via XLR or 3.5 mm jack sockets, helps supports both professional studio monitors and compact loudspeaker systems.
The large analogue volume control makes it possible to precisely control the level of volume without any loss in quality. The signal flow and monitoring situation can be adjusted quickly and intuitively using the “Mono,” “Dim,” and “Mute” buttons.
Thanks to the completely analogue signal path, the sound remains unaltered and latency-free. The MONICON M is the perfect control centre for project studios, editing suites, and multimedia workstations – wherever direct access and precise control are required.
