For over a decade Samson has been building innovative audio products that sound great and perform reliably day after day, night after night. It starts with innovation: new ideas, rethinking the obvious. It’s R&D: Finding better ways to build products to enhance quality and reliability.

Just about everyone at Samson is a musician. From the CEO, to the engineers, to the customer service reps, to the sales and marketing people.

We use these products. That’s why our gear delivers what music professionals need.

S Class Processing represents a new perspective on professional-level audio processing. Elegant and powerful,

S Class processors combine proven circuitry, innovative features and ease-of-use in beautifully crafted cabinets.

Introducing an all-new concept in studio signal processing.

C Class delivers high-end processing tools to desktop recordists in a friendly, innovative package. Designed to complement each other, they also work great individually.

Signal

CVALVE TUBE PREAMP

Adds the warmth of analog tubes to digital recordings.

A true tube pre-amp that provides pure signal and silky sound. It features variable gain and variable tube process saturation for adding harmonics. Regardless of which mic you use, it will maintain detail and transparency. 48-Volt phantom power, phase and peak limiter round out the

control set. A large analog VU output meter and a 6-segment LED input meter make it easy to adjust the gain. Use its insert points along with a C Class Compressor for a direct path to a gorgeous front end sound. The C•valve provides a digital output as well.

CCOM 16 COMPRESSOR

A compact, full-featured compressor for the desktop.

A full-featured Stereo Compressor/Limiter with 16 settings. There are fifteen presets and a manual mode for more critical adjustments when required. The C•com 16’s controls include variable threshold, ratio, attack, decay,

release and output level. An enhancer provides the added character that is lost under heavy compression. Key output/input for outboard triggering or external filtering of the key signal. A 6-segment LED gain reduction meter and a 6-segment LED input/output meter provides visual monitoring of the circuit’s affect.

CCOM OPTI

Adds the magic of optical compression to recordings.

A perfect complement to the computer’s hygienically clean sound. The C•com opti’s adjustable threshold, ratio, attack, release and output controls are calibrated to generate a distinctive soft, rich character while providing magnificent control over dynamics. An enhancer provides the

added character lost under heavy compression. Key output/input for outboard triggering or external filtering of the key signal. Large analog VU meter for output level or gain reduction.

CCONTROL STUDIO MATRIX

Provides a control room matrix previously available only on consoles costing thousands.

A unique solution for studios with multiple monitors, headphone mixes and tape or digital sources. Provides easy, heretofore impossible to achieve, instant monitor mixes or dubs. Select from three

pairs of speakers with dim and mute. Use the talkback mic to give instructions to the musicians in the headphone mix. Push-to-talk also records slates. Includes a headphone amp with level control. Three sets of stereo ins and outs are included, with dubbing capability to three outputs.

CQUE 8 HEADPHONE AMP

The perfect compact headphone amp.

Further enhancing your control in the studio is this Four Channel Headphone Amplifier with eight outputs. Independent volume on each channel makes this a truly versatile headphone amplifier. A 6-seg- ment LED indicator shows the output for each chan-

nel.There’s a main volume for overall level adjustment. An EQ shape circuit offers tone control of each channel and listeners can manage their own personalized mixes. Link outputs allow more than one C•que 8 to be used when needed.
