ESI MOCO Passive Monitor Controller with 2 stereo I/O

ESI MOCO: Fully Passive Monitor Controller for Uncompromised Audio Quality

The ESI MoCo is a fully passive monitor controller designed to provide you with perfect, transparent control over the playback volume of your studio monitors. Being “fully passive” is the key feature, meaning absolutely no active components are involved in the signal path that could potentially alter the audio signal, thereby preserving the maximum sound quality level for your studio monitors. MoCo is exceptionally flexible, offering two separate stereo inputs (one balanced 1/4″ TRS and one unbalanced RCA/1/8″ TRS) and two separate stereo outputs (one balanced XLR and one balanced/unbalanced 1/4″ TRS/1/8″ TRS). Crucially, MoCo maintains the signal integrity: what goes in (Balanced/Unbalanced), goes out!

Key Features

• Fully Passive Circuitry: Ensures zero alteration or coloring of the audio signal by avoiding all active electronic components, preserving maximum sound quality.
• Versatile I/O Connections: Provides two stereo inputs (Balanced TRS, Unbalanced RCA/1/8″) and two stereo outputs (Balanced XLR, Balanced/Unbalanced TRS/1/8″) for connecting multiple sources and monitor pairs.
• Essential Monitoring Functions: Includes switches for Mono summing (for compatibility check), quick Mute function, Input Selector, and separate Output Enable buttons.
• Channel Swap Function: Features a switch to quickly swap the left and right audio signal channels for testing stereo imaging.
• Ergonomic Volume Knob: A stylish, large central knob provides smooth, precise, and accurate control over the actual playback volume.
