Now the musicians can mix it however they like!

Langevin calls this unit the "More Me" Box because it's possibly the headphone mixer's most important feature. Along with the typical cue mix or the control room mix, the engineer can offer each musician a separate fader dedicated to his or her own instrument. Experience teaches us that each musician always wants to hear more of themselves and that trying to meet this demand with several musicians and with too few aux sends is a mind-bending challenge. As long as each musician's headphone is plugged into a separate station, each musician can have their own custom mix within arms reach. This frees up the engineer to concentrate on recording and getting the best sound. It allows the producer to focus on performances because the musicians' monitoring needs are met quickly and easily. It also frees up console aux sends so that they may be used for effect sends.

With the Langevin HP-101 mixing station, you will be able to offer musicians a better sounding headphone amp than most major studios and be able to provide some significant improvements over basic stereo cue boxes or any other headphone system we know of.

The Langevin HP-101 Studio Headphone System provides 8 x balanced inputs: four mono channels with FADER and PAN plus two stereo feeds with rotary switches providing stereo, mono and SIM processing. This cool SIM setting monos the bass, which makes it sound more like listening to real speakers.

Channel one on the Langevin mixer has a PHASE switch, intended primarily for the vocalist. Voice is heard through the bones in the head as well as the phones. You may not hear much difference switching the phase in the control room but the person at the mic certainly will. Polarity gets inverted all the time in studios, which may explain why sometimes the vocal is so loud in the phones or sounds different on playback to the singer. Our PHASE switch sure does come in handy.

The 8 inputs on the Langevin headphone mixer appear on ELCO multi-connectors, wired to ADAT standard, making linking or daisy-chaining several stations easy. Langevin approaches cable making as a custom order which means prices depend on length and quantity and connector choice.
