A FREQUENTLY ASKED (AND ANSWERED) QUESTION

I was wondering what the main difference is between the 1968 and the 1969 models. Does the compressor/circuitry "sound" the same. I mainly need this unit to run line level mixes through. Is the simply 1969 more flexible? Also what is the depth of the units? I couldn't find specs anywhere.

The main differences between the '69 and '68 is that the '69 has 2 mic pre's and a DI... the '68 is the compression section from the '69 without the other facilities.

The compression in the '68 is a tad more flexible than the compression in the '69 as you can use the "big" switch individually on the channels in addition to when the channels are tied in 'stereo' mode, the metering on the '68 was another improvement that I found to be of great assistance. Other than that, they're the same [ahhh, the nomenclature on the '68 is a little better... but that's not really a big deal]

I'm not sure of the depth... I'm going to guess about 14" for each, but I can't swear to it. If you'd like me to measure them, please let me know. The '68 is 1 RU vs. the '69's 2 RU profile.
