Beskrivning
The combination of Neve’s hand-wired transformers and gain reduction circuitry yields a quality of sound which has made the 33609 a studio standard for three decades.
Today’s AMS Neve 33609/N provides the best of both worlds: original Neve 33609 sound (employing a discrete output stage like the original model, for a slightly warmer sound preferred by many professionals) with enhanced internal and external I/O switching.
There are independent sidechains for compressor and limiter sections,
Independent threshold, recovery and attack controls,
Selection of compressor ratios from 1.5:1 to 6:1 and
Gain make-up control that comes before the limiter.
Legendary dual channel diode-bridge compressor/limiter
Discrete class-A design offers fast and slow attack times, multiple release times and threshold levels
Optional link to other units for multi-channel use
Hand-crafted by Neve in Burnley, UK
