“Give me more bass”, “turn the bass down and my vocals up”, “I just want to hear my guitar”. One of the hardest aspects of production and live sound is getting the right balance in headphones. It can make or break a performance, especially when each musician wants something slightly different.
Luckily for you, this just got easy with the PreSonus HP60 6 Channel Headphone Amp. With a generous six inputs, you’ll be pleased to know that half the battle is already won! There’s no more sharing – each musician is free to have a headphone mix that is tailored to their wants and needs. You’ll be able to set varying levels of instruments and click without having to compromise what anyone else is hearing. How great is that?
The HP60 allows you to speed up your workflow by instantly getting the best out of your musicians. By saving them time and money, you’ll become their go-to producer and will be inundated with work. So what are you waiting for? Take your studio to the next level today!
Finishing touches: You can trim the volume of each headphone input either up or down by using the level control. This is great for applying general broad-stroke finishing touches to your headphone mixes. Take this manipulation further with the external stereo input that provides level control as well as mono and mute buttons. At the touch of one button, the musicians will be able to isolate their vocal and instrument. This is great for allowing them to quickly check pitch and tuning.
Voice of reason: Thanks to the talkback function, when you need to talk, everyone will listen. Simply plug your dynamic microphone into the back of the amplifier and you’re good to go. If you wish to do this hands-free, then no problem. You’ll be free to use a foot pedal (not included) to determine when talk-back is on and off. For more complex set-ups, you’ll be able to connect two HP60s together to provide you with twelve inputs. You can even connect to an HP4 to create 10 unique headphone mixes.
