Expert Audio Engineering Commentary

Headroom notes

No EIN in the specification, same as the Vocaster One. The headphone output impedance line in the user guide is a copy-paste error - it repeats the frequency response figure - so that number is simply unknown.

Gain staging

Two host/guest preamps with the same 70 dB range as the Vocaster One - the amount an SM7B-class dynamic actually asks for. Both channels share one physical gain knob, switched by the Host/Guest buttons.
