GC Audio Inherit Rack + Graham Langley Cartridge co-founder of Amek and designer of many large format mixing consoles (Amek Mozart, Rembrandt, Angela, ... etc.).
A premium differential preamp composed of paired transistors and constant current sources. The unit is digitally controlled to isolate the analog signal path in the metallic cartridge (and therefore separated from the radiation of the linear PSU).

The GC Audio The Tube Heat Cartridge a genuine vaccum tube preamplifier inspired by famous vintage tube preamps.
- Twin high voltage ECC82, no discrete component in the signal path, balancing and unbalancing by transformers
- The goal is to obtain all the warmth that this technology allows in order to obtain a very colorful sound. We recommend it especially on vocals
- In addition, by raising gain and lowering the output volume to stay on an output level below 0 dB Vu,
By raising input gain and lowering the output volume to stay below 0 dB Vu, you can obtain a nice analog saturation without overloading your converters. This cartridge is a real creative tool.

GC Audio Langley Inherit Cartridge
GC Audio introduce a new preamp cartridge designed by Graham Langley, co-founder of Amek and designer of many large format mixing consoles (Amek Mozart, Rembrandt, Angela, etc...) in collaboration with Rupert Neve.
This new design, exclusive to the Inherit system, has been conceived to make the best use of the resources offered by the reception rack. The proprietary Inherit format keeps the sensitive part of the electronic design in a one-piece machined cartridge that acts as a Faraday cage to offer optimal electromagnetic shielding performance.

GC Audio Density compressor is a complete VCA Compressor.
The de-symmetrization stage consists of a Lundhal LL 1585 transformer which remains to this day the only way to perform common mode rejection without adding distortion. The follower OPA are ultra low noise AD797s recommended by That Corporation for optimal operation of the VCA.
The GC Audio Rack 500 is a high-end 10 slot chassis with external power supply, compatible with all standard 500 series modules. The external linear power supply has a total capacity of 12 Amps (6A for the +16V circuit and 6A for the -16V circuit) which makes it the most powerful 500 rack on the market. It easily powers the most demanding modules by regulating them and filtering noise and parasites generated by the 50/60Hz AC current. The chassis is made of 1.5mm thick steel, 50% thicker than other 500 racks on the market, offering excellent shielding against electromagnetic radiation for optimal isolation of the 500 modules it receives.
Rack 500 is also available without external power supply.
