GC Audio Inherit Bank

GC Audio INHERIT BANK is the ultimate extension for the Inherit rack, extending its possibilities and functionalities to such an extent that the Inherit rack becomes a multifunctional device offering multi-track preamplification for recording thanks to the preamplifier cartridges, as well as effects processors for mixing and mastering thanks to the new cartridges which have been added to the range of existing cartridges.

The INHERIT BANK requires an INHERIT Rack to operate, and connects to it via a single SUB-D cable. Its rear panel adds 4 inputs via XLR Combo connectors and 4 outputs on standard XLR.

Description

MODES
INHERIT BANK offers 3 operating modes which can be selected via a selector on the front panel.

MULTI mode
In this mode, you work with 4 independent channels:
Each cartridge has its own input and output numbered from 1 to 4 on the rear panel of the Inherit Bank.
Push-buttons 1 to 4 route the signal from each cartridge to the Inherit system's vu-meter.
This mode can be used for multitrack recording, mixing or mastering.
If you connect slots 1 to 3 and 2 to 4 in series with XLRs, you have two-slot stereo processing for the mix bus or mastering. With compressor cartridges, an internal link provides a true stereo RMS lINK.
Many other combinations are possible.

UNIT mode
In this mode, you work with a single channel.
The aim is to compare the sound of each slot in just a few seconds.
The input signal is on channel 1 of the Inherit bank, the output signal is on the output of the Inherit rack.
You can set up to 4 cartridges, and with the push buttons (1 to 4) you can select the slot you want to listen to. So you can compare 4 cartridges and quickly choose the right one. In another configuration, you can put a preamp in slot 1, a compressor in slot 2, an EQ in slot 3 and harmonic FX in slot 4.
First use the preamp in slot 1 for your take, then in your DAW insert your track and you can use the compressor or EQ, etc. for your mix.
So, with just one channel, you can route the processing you want when you need it.
In this mode, you can treat each slot as a plugin, but with real analog hardware and no AD/DA conversion!

SERIAL mode
This mode allows you to create a customized production channel.
As with UNIT mode, the input signal is on channel 1 of the Inherit Bank, the output signal is on the Inherit rack output.
Use buttons 2 to 4 to select the number of cartridges you want in series.
 
The Inherit Bank offers 4 independent inputs/outputs, so you can retrieve them in multi-track mode. But also an active DI in addition to the passive DI of the Inherit rack.

The preamplifier cartridges currently available are :

  • RE 15: Reissue of the Amek RN15 preamp, unbalanced and balanced by a very low noise Op-Amp
  • RE 11: Modern, high-gain monolithic preamplifier
  • RE 73: Reissue of the Neve 1073 preamp, unbalanced and balanced by an original Carnhill VTB9045 shielded transformer
  • RE 98: Reissue of the Amek 9098 preamp, very low noise discrete components, balanced by Lundahl 1585 transformer
  • RE VR: Improved reissue of the NEVE VR console preamp, de-balanced with a rebuilt Original TF10015 transformer, preamplified and balanced with a very low noise Op-Amp
  • RE 4K: Reissue of the SSL 4K E Series preamp, unbalanced by an original Jensen 115 transformer, preamp balanced by very low noise Op-Amp
  • Tube Heat: true high voltage tube preamp, unbalanced by transformer, no discrete components in the signal path
  • Graham Langley: Designed in collaboration with Graham Langley to create a preamp offering the most focused and accomplished preamp with its own unique signature, using the unique capabilities of the Inherit system
  • GY 4.5: Genuine tube preamplifier: Coming with two ECC82 running on high voltage

The effect processor cartridges currently available are :
        • Color Riser: 3-stage slice: Hybrid mic/line preamp + harmonic addition stage + tube saturator
        • Compressor Riser: 2-stage slice incorporating hybrid mic/line preamp + full VCA-type compressor
        • Equalizer Riser: 2-stage slice incorporating mic/line preamp + full parametric 3-band equalizer

The rack's power supply has been designed with the utmost care and contains 7 unique voltages generated by three toroidal transformers.

All functions are analog but digitally controlled in a well-shielded construction, designed to protect the signal circuitry. This ensures that each cartridge retains a unique, pure sound. During a recording, the user can quickly and easily compare, for example, the sharpness of a transistor preamplifier with the warmth of a real tube preamplifier, without having to go through a patchbay. Some cartridges are based on proven technologies that are standard in recording studios, while others are based on new, exclusive technologies specific to the Inherit system. In the case of the proven technologies, numerous improvements have been made to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio while retaining the original behavior and tonal color.
