The MicTel replaces the handset of the telephone to provide high-quality audio for feeding and receiving information. For non-telephone work, its balanced, studio quality inputs and outputs make it an excellent audio interface device for all kinds of remote or in-studio work. The aux. audio channel drives the headphones giving you a portable field amplifier with an IFB feed for your headphones in one compact box.
The MicTel includes a line-level, balanced input for mixing in tape players, etc. Along with high quality audio, the MicTel features audio limiters in both the send and receive channel. These limiters are user-defeatable and begin working at about +3dBm of output. The limiter works by automatically reducing the gain of the device during high-output, peak audio thereby preventing clipping, output distortion or overdriving the telephone line.
The MicTel is a great addition to your remote setup. Whether you're doing news/sports actualities, general remote broadcasting, or you just need a great little mini-audio work station for your studio, you'll appreciate the versatile features & performance of the MicTel.
