Thank you for buying this Audient Product.
MiCO is a compact, feature packed dual-channel Mic Pre with built in ultra-high
quality ADCs, making it an ideal front-end for desk top users. The front-end design
is Audient’s renowned balanced discrete Class A design which is also used in
the ASP008 and the ASP8024 mixing console - guaranteeing outstanding sonic
transparency and detail.
MiCO also features one channel of the unique “HMX” harmonic sculpting technology
from the Audient Black Pre making the creation of vintage style character and
complexity as simple as turning one knob. For recording a single source with twin
mics or mic+DI, the Variphase control on MiCO’s second channel allows precise
phase alignment (or creative mis-alignment) of the two signal paths.
