Kush Audio Main Gain / Function Junction Review / See
All ZenPro Audio Reviews Here: Review
Page If
you are looking for simple, straight forward desktop analog volume
control and monitoring of critical audio, I can already tell you the
Kush will fulfill your needs and then some. This small, table-top style
analog only volume controller comes in the classic "ubk brown" finish
and has chrome buttons as well as a "nipple like" knob that is very
unique. It won't look like anything else anybody has seen sitting around
any studio before, the style is all its own. There are TRS ins and
outs, the Function Junction add on box sports a DSUB jack for multiple
I/O use. The Main Gain on its own will provide stereo in / out from one
source to one pair of speakers, and give you MONO and individual left /
right mutes (a rare feature!). Adding the Function Junction brings
talkback w/ internal mic (feeds the headphone outs only), 2 headphone
outputs, and 2 more stereo source inputs and the ability to switch
between another 2 sets of stereo speakers (for 6 total). It connects to
the Main Gain via the 15 pin port on its left side, or via a cable (you
must provide) if desired.
The sound of the unit absolutely kills, I have to say. Not
in a "makes everything sound better way" either, I mean in a way that it
should operate...true to the original source. In testing vs my monitor
controller here, the Main Gain won on accuracy, left / right tracking
relationship at all levels of the volume pot, resolution and detail of
sound, as well as the headphone amps being very clear and loud. The
talkback mic was surprisingly lo-fi, although I have to say the fact
that it MUTES the audio does still give it a leg up as far as the artist
(A) noticing you are actually talking to them and (B) understanding
what you say.
Conclusion: Talking strictly audio in the purest sense, for
critical listening the Kush Audio Main Gain delivers true fidelity in an
unhyped way, up and down the scale. Individual left / right mutes and
MONO summing bring the basic functions one needs, and you can always
expand with the Function Junction for multiple speaker setups, as well
as providing very high quality headphone amps for engineer and artist.
