The Stereo Bus Compressor, 4 Input, 8 Input & Master Modules make a nice summing mixer.

The VHD Input Module is based on the input section of the popular SSL E-Signature Channel 1U rack processor. It combines: a high bandwidth mic amp stage that can handle mic, instrument or line inputs, SSL's Variable Harmonic Drive circuit, an additional line input/ trim control section, a set of High and Low Pass Filters and the classic Listen Mic Compressor. A 100% analogue circuit that adds a variable blend of 2nd or 3rd harmonic distortion to your signal

Audio Hardware : Audient launches the MICO - pcmusicMico is a compact, feature packed twin 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.

The 2 channels of the Mico are not exactly similar :
-It features one channel (left) 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.
