Supercharge your recordings with a classic British tone with the Heritage Audio BritStrip, a channel-strip rackmount unit for professional engineers who crave a vintage sound with modern appointments. A preamp, a 73-style EQ, and a diode-bridge compressor will all be at your disposal when you purchase the BritStrip. You'll have the ability to rearrange the circuit, so that compression can come before or after the EQ.
Mic level, line level, and instrument level—all of it—will get the best level in British sound, thanks to quality componentry courtesy of Carnhill. Whether you want to give a bass part tons of color with the EQ, squash the daylights out of a room mic with the compressor, or link up two units for stereo processing anything on the mix as an insert, this unit will deliver the goods. The power supply is included, as is an IEC cord for use right out of the box.
A Preamp for Demanding Engineers
The BritStrip starts with the same preamp as the beloved Heritage 73JR, though it employs a new custom input transformer codesigned with Carnhill and exclusively made for Heritage in their St Ives factory. The preamp also offers a custom Carnhill St. Ives output transformer, which completes the all-discrete, Class-A, 3-gain stage design. What does this mean for the person who doesn't love to geek out over specs? An authentic 73 sound with 80 dB of gain, a 20 dB pad, polarity reversal for multimicing, and an impedance switch to accommodate all sorts of microphones.
Built-In Class-A DI
The DI is also taken from the highly acclaimed design found in the Heritage Audio 73JR, giving you an all-discrete Class-A JFET circuit in front of the microphone transformer. This provides color, density, and weight for your electric guitars and basses. The DI also includes a passive thru output to feed a separate amplifier, so you can take great sound from both this channel strip and your own amp setup.
An Expanded 73-Style EQ
The BritStrip's EQ offers 3 Vinkor pot core inductors in the mid band and high-pass filter sections. This allows for exceedingly musical high-level boosts and cuts. Sculpt your tone with the mid band, add polish with the highs, and fatten up the lows. No need to be subtle with these controls: BritStrip won't add phase distortion or lose headroom at extreme settings.
The inductor-based high-pass filter, directly taken from the 73 design, lets you control out of range low-end without affecting the quality of your desired frequencies.The high and low shelves have been extended to include a bell mode, making them more versatile for modern users.
Vintage Diode Compression for the Modern Age
The diode bridge bus compressor needs little introduction, as it's been beloved throughout the ages of rock. The diode bridge offered here is the same compressor found in the multi-award-nominated Heritage Audio Successor. With BritStrip, this powerful compressor design can be used for tracking, thanks to it's blend control and elaborate sidechain filter.
The compressor section provides plenty of sidechain flexibility, with 5 frequency options and an external sidechain input. And if that weren't enough flexibility, 2 BritStrips can have their compressors linked for stereo tracing, or even line-level color in the mix stage.
Flexible Routing
The BritStrip allows for compression and equalizer routing. EQ'ing precompression makes the compression detector more sensitive to boosted frequencies and less sensitive to attenuated frequencies. Inversely, equalizing post compression makes the detector insensitive to the EQ settings.
